As a Sonics fan I’d say the Sonics were never the same after Nate McMillan retired and George Karl left. In 98 the Sonics won 61 games with Vin Baker but we weren’t going to win a championship with Baker. I think things with kemp would have been different if he stayed because of payton
The problem of those Sonics was Vin Baker. I am sorry to say it, i really loved him, but as a seattle fan i remember waiting for him to "come back at his all star form" became like waiting for Godot.
@@PIP...33 Even if Lewis was more Xp , I doubt they could deal vs Shaq, guy is 350 and lack of centers means that only Hakeem, or Admiral can win vs any team that have Shaq.
Great matchup. You get to really see why Payton has such high regard for Stockton. The Glove balled out also. Great point guards.
John Stockton is the GOAT pound for pound.
The Sonics weren't really the same after they chose Vin Baker over Shawn Kemp.
Actually both of them went downhill during the lockout season
@@yellowduck-2024I was about to say. You could say the very same thing about Kemp.
@@jeebs9 Kemp was addicted to cocaine, Baker was addicted to alcohol
@@yellowduck-2024 Both are pretty bad

It's like waiting for a basketball team to come back to Seattle
MY FAV PG GLOVE VS GOAT PG STOCK
*Person should have given an extra pass to Payton but great game.*
Baker had just hit a shot from the same position and he was wide open
Stockton is the greatest athlete of all time probably
no
Can we get that Classic Game in 1990 of MJ & Scottie Vs Magic & Big Game from Dec 21 1990🔎🤔🔎🤔. U had to do another redo💥
hopefully will look into it Michael
Seattle would have given the Blazers a better fight in round 2 than Utah did
VERY GOOD TEAM. IF ONLY LEWIS WASNT ROOKIE. LATER TEAM FELL A PART AFTER BAKER ADDICTION.

@@perditadurango9699 I DUNNO, BARRY WAS SOMEHOW DOWN FORM. AFTER CLIPPERS I THO HE WILL BE ALL-STAR.
@@perditadurango9699 Had Jordan stayed, Jordan, Chicago would have easily dismissed the Lakers.
No they would get swept by Portland
THIS. was pro basketball.
