    Guys like big Al, Kaman and Nene were cursed to have played in the same conference as KG, Amare, Dirk, Duncan, Gasol brothers, Webber and Yao. These guys were overlooked when in fact had they played for the east they would be clear cut stars

      Nope, they would have been just as mediocre in the east. Zbo played at the same time in the west and still made his name. Kaman, nene, Jefferson just weren't that good.

      "Poor man" Kevin Garnett*. Tim Duncan was a defensive stopper who developed his offense later. Big Al was a professional scorer day one. Either way a great player that had his talent wasted carrying bottom 5-10 teams his entire career.

    U can say “back to basket” but Jefferson was far from that. Him and z-bo. Both could have played in today’s NBA. A physical big with a mid touch or decent perimeter shot will dominate the so called league today.

    Amazing post work and he only could use his right hand!
    Dude had 4 moves the elbow jumper which he would use to set up his jab step spin for his extended floater or he would pump fake to get as close to the cup as possible 😂
    And on the block he could “go over both shoulders” but not traditionally he probably couldn’t dribble the ball 10 times straight with his left hand but he didn’t need to because he had an uncanny ability to go over his left AND right shoulder both with his right hand.😂
    Big Al forever.
