With all the talk about the Big 3 and all the great things to come, it is easy to forget about big #33. Not for me. Zo is and always will be the reason I am a Heat fan. He brings his passion and mental toughness not just to the beautiful game of basketball, but to life, as is evidenced by his dedicated work with charities and the Tricia and Alonzo Mourning Foundation.
One of the hardest working and most beloved players in the realm of basketball. Here's to you Zo!!
I love ZO !!!!! I AM A MIAMI HEAT FAN SINCE DAY 1 BACK IN 1987....and the miami heat didn't get any respect.. till ZO brought that swagger and toughness ...that the miami heat still have today.the man was only 6' 10 ...and he use to take ewing,shaq,and matombo to the hole..and he was a beast coming of the bench in the 2006 championship run.do you remember those minutes he played in that game six in dallas.WOW .I LOVE WADE I LOVE BOSH AND I LOVE LEBRON .. BUT MY FAVORITE HEAT EVER IS ZO !!!!!
dont forget this man was the smallest center at 6'10.he played like a 7 footer.he and shawn kemp are same height.he should have been a power forward,he would have retired the best power forward to ever play,well between him and karl malone anyway.
90's four big centers: olajuwon, shaq, david robinson, ewing
no.5 is Zo
but shaq and zo's ages have a significant difference between those three, so if zo didn't have injuries as some bros said, he would have competed with shaq
The heat were expected to make a championship run
Those heat teams in the 90's were basically one man team(mourning) sad thing is,in his prime like other g-town stars ewing,iverson,he never had a teammate on his level.Tim hardaway,was passed his prime and had major leg surgery by the time he came to miami.He became a jump shooter,and when that didnt go...he was useless.There other best players were mashburn,majerle and p.j brown?lol...garbage
si amigo yo tambn pienso lo mismo y eso lo note desde su temporada de novato que le metia huevos y no se habria me latia como era bueno para bloquear la intensidad y el corazon en los juegos por eso fue mi idolo desde novato ke hasta asi le puse a mi hijo jaja claro despues de jordan camara tu si sabes de bueno jugadores
alonzo fue un buen jugador lastima ke le dio esa enfermedad en la cumbre de su carrera y para mi es uno de los mejores postes ke paso por la nba y michael jordan alonzo son mis idolos vamos ZO tu puedes
I commented a while back on this vid but the heat are so bad now. I had to see the franchise player again even tho he's hurt. Oh and the songs are Boom by Royce Da 5'9 & One Day by Jeru the Damaja
Its so sad that his carear might end with him sitting on the sideline, the amount of stuff he dose for basketball on and of the court is almost unmatched. I wish Alonzo All the best with his recovery and will be hoping he will be back on the court soon.
lol, zo in his prime owning duncan...trust me, i hate duncan as much as the next guy, but i hate him because he is one of the top 5 players in the league, and he's been in that stratosphere for the past 10 years. zo has ONE champ ring, and that was last year...duncan has how many? MVP's? all NBA first teams?? zo was more explosive, and if you asked any GM in the league who they would take in there prime, all would take duncan
you are retarded once again. Zo was unfortunate enough to play in the Jordan Era. Duncan won all those championship when the league was crap. They started winning AFTER Shaq and Kobe dismantled. If duncan played in the jordan era, he would join guys such as reggie miller, stockton and malon, ewing, barkley and zo with 0 CHAMPIONSHIP
YOU are retarded, my friend. how many other great centers were around during that time???? you already mentioned ewing. but then there's dave robinson, hakeem, shaq (of course). rik smits was a major player, and don't forget mutombo. id' put alonzo behind all those guys, w/ the exception of smits and dikembe. and FYI, the spurs won the '99 title, when kobe and shaq had been together for 3 years, so your arguement there fails
again your lack of common sense clearly displays on your argument. 99 season was a lock out season. who did the spurs beat?? an 8th seeded Knicks. WOW!! Yea shaq and Kobe had been together for 3 years, BUT that was only Kobe's 3rd year in the league after comming out of high school. 3 YEARS!!! how many players out of high school did anything after 3 years other then lebron???
dwight howard was making headway. kevin garnett was either making the allstar game or was on the cusp. moses malone??? shawn kemp??? come on. plenty of high impact high schoolers. and the fact that the knicks were the 8th seed only hurts your argument for zo; his team got knocked out by those 8th seeded knicks (if i remember correctly, wasn't miami the no.1 seed? i could be wrong)
you are seriously retarded and needs to stfu. shawn kemp???? he went to college idiot. did moses malone, garnett, or howard win a title or even came close during his 3rd year? yes there are some high schoolers that made an impact during his 3rd year but none of them other then kobe comes to mind when going far deep into the playoffs
what college did kemp go to?!?!? he committed to kentucky, but never played a game there. w/ no college experience, he basically CAME IN OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL. JESUS FUCKING CHRIST. KNOW YOUR SHIT AND GET ON MY LEVEL
you stating "he basically CAME IN OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL" doesn't justify the argument that he came straight out. he declared to play for kentucky but didn't suit up and instead transfered to a jr college. yes he didn't play there either but he declared for the draft 1 year after out of high school so HE DIDN'T GO TO NBA STRAIGHT OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL RETARD
wow. you say that he didn't play at all in the year between his highschool career and his rookie year...similar scenerio: greg oden will not play this year. is he eligible next year for 'rook of the year' I THINK SO. BAM. you lose again
um i never said he didn't play at all... go read what i wrote idiot. if you still don't understand, let me clairfy so your thick head will understand. players that went to the nba straight from high school graduated in may/june. got drafted in june/july and participated in nba training camp and so forth. camp went to college, transfered to jr college but didnt play college ball but declared from the draft after a year out of high. you get it now>
yet you say that kemp did NOT come directly out of high school. when was the last real game that kemp played before the nba? high school. just like oden sits out a year, and is eligible for rookie of the year next year
where and why does oden come into this argument. kemp declared for the draft a year after he graduated from high school and still went to college. yes his last official game was in high school but the fact is he went to college idiot. you ask anyone and i mean ANYONE, AND THEY WILL TELL YOU THAT GARNETT WAS THE FIRST PLAYER OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL SINCE MOSES MALONE NOT KEMP DUMBASS
lol. those are the same people that said mourning was done for good after the kidney transplant. turns out those people you assume are never wrong are well, wrong sometimes
I never compared zo to other centers during JORDAN era, but since you brought it up, ZO was top 5 center in the league back then and now. How many titles did those great centers win while in Jordan era?? TWO COMBINED and that was when Jordan was in retirement so you can't really say Jordan era which means those great centers WON ZERO titles during the jordan era. If Duncan played in the Jordan era, he would join those great centers with ZERO TITLES. you are retarded
you are retarded. haywood and big ben?? Duncan considers himself and plays PF not center. Stoudamire can't play D. Rasheed plays mostly PF so he's not a true center. only debate would be camby
omfg you are seriously retarded... Sheed plays center and PF but his main position is PF. detroit brought in nazh mohammed to repace big ben in center but that didn't work out. Antonio Mcdyse plays center spot. stfu and know your shit before you type anything down
wtf did i just say??? mcdyess stands at the elbows and shoots fucking jumpers. sheed plays inside for the most part, and is a better rebounder too. jesus christ, you failure. read what i type. zo is a center and mcdyess is not because zo played inside and dyess just shoots from the outside now. you love zo so much, are you a georgetown fan/alum/student?? i got plenty to say about hibbert if you're interested
sheed plays mostly on inside? go watch a detroit game and see how he plays. he plays inside/outside depending who his match up is. and no i am not related to anything that is based on georgetown. my favorite player out of that that school is AI so stfu
you dipshit, i live in indy and watch the pacers play detroit 4 times a year. i've watched him for the past 4 or w/e years. if he's the trailer on the fastbreak (usually when maxiell's in the game) then he'll jack up 3's, but for the most part it's midrange to the paint. btw, i do respect the AI pick
and no i am not a crazy fanatic of zo but i am his fan. ask a true nba fan if they remember any of the spurs series?um no because they were all boring while Zo's heat vs the bulls and the knicks were some of the better playoff series. i can't recall any latest playoff series that was that exciting and emotional since lakers vs king during shaq/kobe era.
spurs/suns last year? mavs/spurs the year before? come on, there have been plenty of good ones. i think that the lakers/kings was a little overhyped; the reason it was so emotional was because you had so many divas on the court at one time (and yes, vlade divac is a diva)
well, i remember the suns got screwed over w/ those stupid suspensions for game 6. but i think that series was as emotional as any, and the horry fouls seals the deal for me
you are just a zo hater who has no common sense. do you even know anything or even play basketball?? by the stuff you write, you obviously watch basketball but do not have a clear understanding of the way game is play retard
yep, been playing for 14 years now. i'm your typical 6' white guy, w/ the exception that i can actually dunk and stuff. that's right a 6' CENTER. dude, i know what i'm talking about. btw, where does mcdyess and sheed play at when the pistons are in a 2-3 zone? that's right, sheed's in the middle (where the center goes) and dyess is usually on his left, but not always
sigh how stupid can you get, did you even bother read what i wrote? i said sheed plays center and PF and yes he plays in the middle when they play 2-3 but so does mcdyess when sheed is not on the floor. mcdyess also plays pf and center retard omfg
i'm not talking about when he goes out of the game. wtf. i'm talking about when both are on the flood. if amare stoudemire goes out of the game and the suns go small, would marion be considered a center? no, just a generic 'big'
um when they go small and marion plays center so he is the center during that point idiot not a "generic big" and marion is only 6'7 but has played all positions at some point during the game in his career
jesus fucking christ. watch the game. where does marion play when they go small?????? the suns run open post and have all 5 players out on the perimeter. marion doesn't post up like a center. dude, ugh. watch the game and pay attention; you're frustrating me cuz you don't learn the game when you watch
so a center is only a center when he posts up. ok idiot. look at the trend in the nba. al harrington who is like 6'8 plays center for the warriors although he stands out there and shoots 3s
he's not a center. another former pacer. i've watched him for years. he's a big 3/4 combo player who posts up. a center is a player who can dominate the inside. marion = NOT. harrington = NOT. btw, 'swtiching up' the insults doesn't mean going from full time 'retard' to full time 'idiot' gimme some flavor, or are you too focused on losing arguements to come up w/ good insults
your argument would have been valid 10-70 years ago. but as i said before look at the trend that is going on in the nba. a center now is not only limited in the post but rather someone that can run, shoot midrange to spread the floor and even shoot 3s. you fit into every insult that is related to an idiot, moron, retard, etc
another example since you can't read or comprehend anything. go watch the way yao plays. is center not suppose to shoot fade away 15-18 footers? obviously he does and he is a center
nice. variety. i like that. except that look who's dominating the game now. dwight howard. the same freak of an athlete that comes along 'once a half century' (lol, watch as i kill 2 birds w/ one stone. i already got one down). dwight howard is dominating. utterly dominating. this year for him would be a career year for zo. guess you don't need to shoot midrange after all (honorable mention for dominating centers: amare, al jefferson, eddy curry on good nights)
um he dominates because he is a freakish athlete that has good hands and quick feet for a big men which is RARE but for you to say this would be a career year for zo? um go compare zo's stats in his prime to dwight howard.
did you just mentioned eddy curry?? THE EDDY CURRY? even on good nights, he is still eddy curry or fatty curry. i wish steven a smith or charles barkley saw what you wrote.
FUCK STEVEN A SMITH. and so what if eddy curry's fat? i don't like him as a player, but he put up 18 and 8 last year. besides, barkley's fatter than hell now, so w/e. btw, did you not get the part where i killed your shaq arguement when you said guys like him come along every half century? wilt chamberlains rookie year was '61 and shaq's was '93 and dwight's was '04...there isn't a half century between any of those guys
yea he put up 19-7 but what else did he do? they even have "eddy curry stat line" as a joke in yahoo fantasy. go look that up and then talk about eddy curry.
ever heard of sarcasm? was i suppose to say every decade? every 5 years? every 20 years? and when and why is dwight howard in the argument with zo. quit brining up that has nothing to do with zo retard
lol, how is that sarcasm????? haha, there's a difference between sarcasm and just making a really bad guess involving numbers. it does have to do w/ zo cuz we're talking about dominating centers. btw, we are absolutely owning this video. after we're done, this should be our video and we'll split it down the middle. you can have the first half, 2nd, w/e. idc. equal partnership
i am not doing equal partnership with an idiot. that leads to failure for any profession. and it is not a bad guess involving numbers. it's your lack of common sense. but anyways it was fun i am tired, good night
and i don't hate zo. he's a breath of fresh air in the league. he was a major badass in his prime. but was he ever the toast of the league like you make him out to be? no. i'm all for saluting a player, but have some touch w/ reality.
shaq is a freak of nature that comes into the league maybe every half decade or so and when did i ever say that zo was the 50 greatest. i said he was the focal point for the heat, and one of the best centers during that period IDIOT.
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST, KID! I KNOW YOU NEVER SAID THAT AOBUT THE 50 GREATEST. GET A FUCKING CLUE!!!! I USED IT AS A POINT TO SHOW THAT IT WASN'T JUST JORDAN GETTING HEADLINES. THERE WERE OTHER PLAYERS BETTER THAN ZO BACK THEN. gah, i feel like i'm trying to carry on a convo w/ a baboon
when did i say zo was the best player or there weren't other players better then zo. the fact you have no commonse sense and can't read is not my fault idiot
why would i need to look that up? i've already passed 8th grade vocabulary, but thanks for the refresher. your turn. you word is 'tuberculosis'. w/o looking, tell me the language of origin
wow you graduated middle school, i bet your parents are very proud of you. and why would i be stupid enough to waste my time listening to your idiotic ass
you know, calling me retard (esp when i'm always right) only hurts your credibility. at least mix it up and make it creative...btw, since when does 7 ppg make you a top 5 center? the only impressive thing he does now is block shots; that's it.
i am calling you a retard because you obviously don't read or know any FACTS. yes his scoring is low but the impact that he makes. go check his stats when he played starter minutes. Heats going to suck even more then they are since zo's career is now over
varojao makes an impact. leandro barbosa makes an impact. i think the only things that zo provides at this point is lockerroom leadership and shotblocking
and how many players did zo stuff or sent that shit out of there? he gets the respect because he is fearless and isn't afraid to get "posterized" like lots of nba players. yes he got posterized by vc but so did lots of other players, also go look at some footage of zo tossing vc's shit out
zo is the shit .....dont come in the paint cuz yo shit will get sent back to sender...i based my whole style of play around his style...thats hustle and power. you can see what he brings every night ...even at g-town in college he was balling....hope he comes back one more year...big zo ..aka..GONZO...
im going to the last home game he pays in and i along with 20,000 plus will give him the standing ovation he deserves zo is the true heat fan fav big man of all time ! ONE MORE YEAR ! ONE MORE YEAR ! ONE MORE YEAR ! NUMBER 33 WILL NEVER, EVER BE WORN BY ANOTHER HEAT PLAYER .. IN ZO WE TRUST !
This shit brings me back to my younger days. Watching Zo and Timmy do what they do. Timmy with the speed and Zo with the power and intensity. Makes you think what he could've done with a good kidney.
because WAIZA unlike any player who has ever played,he tries to block everything! By the way ZOs the only guy i ever saw dunk on shaq,AND HE DID IT WITH A BROKEN THUMB!
Hey the heat got the two best centers in league, I don't care what anybody says. Im glad Zo came back to the heat and hes still got the same intensity hes always had, one more time Zo, one more time!
this man has serious skill but what pisses me off about him is that he needs to celebrate after every fuckin play like he just hit a game-winner in the playoffs. CALM DOWN NIGGA! this mothafucka makes a layup and starts punding his chest and shit.
i dont give a fuck what fan you are kid. u came at me with this tough guy shit so dont try to flip it like i started some shit on the internet trying to act all big
holy shit.. i got his number right on 2k11???? wii? recreation? im beast.

yet you say that kemp did NOT come directly out of high school. when was the last real game that kemp played before the nba? high school. just like oden sits out a year, and is eligible for rookie of the year next year
tyleral45 4 years ago
where and why does oden come into this argument. kemp declared for the draft a year after he graduated from high school and still went to college. yes his last official game was in high school but the fact is he went to college idiot. you ask anyone and i mean ANYONE, AND THEY WILL TELL YOU THAT GARNETT WAS THE FIRST PLAYER OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL SINCE MOSES MALONE NOT KEMP DUMBASS

lol. those are the same people that said mourning was done for good after the kidney transplant. turns out those people you assume are never wrong are well, wrong sometimes
tyleral45 4 years ago
wtf are you talking about. when did i say or assume that they are never wrong. read carefully idiot
gghochu 4 years ago
I never compared zo to other centers during JORDAN era, but since you brought it up, ZO was top 5 center in the league back then and now. How many titles did those great centers win while in Jordan era?? TWO COMBINED and that was when Jordan was in retirement so you can't really say Jordan era which means those great centers WON ZERO titles during the jordan era. If Duncan played in the Jordan era, he would join those great centers with ZERO TITLES. you are retarded
gghochu 4 years ago
no not at all, there is Howard, Yao, Stoudamire, Camby, Shaq, Rasheed, Duncan, Ilgauskas, Haywood, and Big Ben
0Sheridan0 4 years ago
you are retarded. haywood and big ben?? Duncan considers himself and plays PF not center. Stoudamire can't play D. Rasheed plays mostly PF so he's not a true center. only debate would be camby
gghochu 4 years ago
except 'sheed plays center since ben left motown
tyleral45 4 years ago
omfg you are seriously retarded... Sheed plays center and PF but his main position is PF. detroit brought in nazh mohammed to repace big ben in center but that didn't work out. Antonio Mcdyse plays center spot. stfu and know your shit before you type anything down
gghochu 4 years ago
you dumbfuck. what does mcdyess do now??? he shoots 15 footers. HE'S 6' FUCKING 9'' HE'S NOT A DAMN CENTER
tyleral45 4 years ago
so you are saying since sheed shoots 3 pointers, he is a shooting guard not a center?
so since zo is only 1 more inch taller then mcdyess, he is not a damn center either huh.
again your argument has no justification other then your own world opinions
gghochu 4 years ago
wtf did i just say??? mcdyess stands at the elbows and shoots fucking jumpers. sheed plays inside for the most part, and is a better rebounder too. jesus christ, you failure. read what i type. zo is a center and mcdyess is not because zo played inside and dyess just shoots from the outside now. you love zo so much, are you a georgetown fan/alum/student?? i got plenty to say about hibbert if you're interested
tyleral45 4 years ago
sheed plays mostly on inside? go watch a detroit game and see how he plays. he plays inside/outside depending who his match up is. and no i am not related to anything that is based on georgetown. my favorite player out of that that school is AI so stfu
gghochu 4 years ago
you dipshit, i live in indy and watch the pacers play detroit 4 times a year. i've watched him for the past 4 or w/e years. if he's the trailer on the fastbreak (usually when maxiell's in the game) then he'll jack up 3's, but for the most part it's midrange to the paint. btw, i do respect the AI pick
tyleral45 4 years ago
you are just bitter that zo has a ring and miller don't. although pacer vs the bulls and the knicks were classic too
gghochu 4 years ago
one of the greatest '10 second chunks' of my life were when uncle reg scored 8 pts in basically no time at all. screw spike lee
tyleral45 4 years ago
and no i am not a crazy fanatic of zo but i am his fan. ask a true nba fan if they remember any of the spurs series?um no because they were all boring while Zo's heat vs the bulls and the knicks were some of the better playoff series. i can't recall any latest playoff series that was that exciting and emotional since lakers vs king during shaq/kobe era.
gghochu 4 years ago
spurs/suns last year? mavs/spurs the year before? come on, there have been plenty of good ones. i think that the lakers/kings was a little overhyped; the reason it was so emotional was because you had so many divas on the court at one time (and yes, vlade divac is a diva)
tyleral45 4 years ago
the only thing people remember from the spurs/suns is robert horry knocking down nash
only thing people remember from mavs/spurs is duncan choking on freethrows
gghochu 4 years ago
well, i remember the suns got screwed over w/ those stupid suspensions for game 6. but i think that series was as emotional as any, and the horry fouls seals the deal for me
tyleral45 4 years ago
you are just a zo hater who has no common sense. do you even know anything or even play basketball?? by the stuff you write, you obviously watch basketball but do not have a clear understanding of the way game is play retard
gghochu 4 years ago
yep, been playing for 14 years now. i'm your typical 6' white guy, w/ the exception that i can actually dunk and stuff. that's right a 6' CENTER. dude, i know what i'm talking about. btw, where does mcdyess and sheed play at when the pistons are in a 2-3 zone? that's right, sheed's in the middle (where the center goes) and dyess is usually on his left, but not always
tyleral45 4 years ago
sigh how stupid can you get, did you even bother read what i wrote? i said sheed plays center and PF and yes he plays in the middle when they play 2-3 but so does mcdyess when sheed is not on the floor. mcdyess also plays pf and center retard omfg
gghochu 4 years ago
i'm not talking about when he goes out of the game. wtf. i'm talking about when both are on the flood. if amare stoudemire goes out of the game and the suns go small, would marion be considered a center? no, just a generic 'big'
tyleral45 4 years ago
um when they go small and marion plays center so he is the center during that point idiot not a "generic big" and marion is only 6'7 but has played all positions at some point during the game in his career
gghochu 4 years ago
jesus fucking christ. watch the game. where does marion play when they go small?????? the suns run open post and have all 5 players out on the perimeter. marion doesn't post up like a center. dude, ugh. watch the game and pay attention; you're frustrating me cuz you don't learn the game when you watch
tyleral45 4 years ago
so a center is only a center when he posts up. ok idiot. look at the trend in the nba. al harrington who is like 6'8 plays center for the warriors although he stands out there and shoots 3s
gghochu 4 years ago
he's not a center. another former pacer. i've watched him for years. he's a big 3/4 combo player who posts up. a center is a player who can dominate the inside. marion = NOT. harrington = NOT. btw, 'swtiching up' the insults doesn't mean going from full time 'retard' to full time 'idiot' gimme some flavor, or are you too focused on losing arguements to come up w/ good insults
tyleral45 4 years ago
your argument would have been valid 10-70 years ago. but as i said before look at the trend that is going on in the nba. a center now is not only limited in the post but rather someone that can run, shoot midrange to spread the floor and even shoot 3s. you fit into every insult that is related to an idiot, moron, retard, etc
gghochu 4 years ago
another example since you can't read or comprehend anything. go watch the way yao plays. is center not suppose to shoot fade away 15-18 footers? obviously he does and he is a center
gghochu 4 years ago
nice. variety. i like that. except that look who's dominating the game now. dwight howard. the same freak of an athlete that comes along 'once a half century' (lol, watch as i kill 2 birds w/ one stone. i already got one down). dwight howard is dominating. utterly dominating. this year for him would be a career year for zo. guess you don't need to shoot midrange after all (honorable mention for dominating centers: amare, al jefferson, eddy curry on good nights)
tyleral45 4 years ago
um he dominates because he is a freakish athlete that has good hands and quick feet for a big men which is RARE but for you to say this would be a career year for zo? um go compare zo's stats in his prime to dwight howard.
did you just mentioned eddy curry?? THE EDDY CURRY? even on good nights, he is still eddy curry or fatty curry. i wish steven a smith or charles barkley saw what you wrote.
gghochu 4 years ago
FUCK STEVEN A SMITH. and so what if eddy curry's fat? i don't like him as a player, but he put up 18 and 8 last year. besides, barkley's fatter than hell now, so w/e. btw, did you not get the part where i killed your shaq arguement when you said guys like him come along every half century? wilt chamberlains rookie year was '61 and shaq's was '93 and dwight's was '04...there isn't a half century between any of those guys
tyleral45 4 years ago
yea he put up 19-7 but what else did he do? they even have "eddy curry stat line" as a joke in yahoo fantasy. go look that up and then talk about eddy curry.
ever heard of sarcasm? was i suppose to say every decade? every 5 years? every 20 years? and when and why is dwight howard in the argument with zo. quit brining up that has nothing to do with zo retard
gghochu 4 years ago
lol, how is that sarcasm????? haha, there's a difference between sarcasm and just making a really bad guess involving numbers. it does have to do w/ zo cuz we're talking about dominating centers. btw, we are absolutely owning this video. after we're done, this should be our video and we'll split it down the middle. you can have the first half, 2nd, w/e. idc. equal partnership
tyleral45 4 years ago
i am not doing equal partnership with an idiot. that leads to failure for any profession. and it is not a bad guess involving numbers. it's your lack of common sense. but anyways it was fun i am tired, good night

gghochu 4 years ago
and i don't hate zo. he's a breath of fresh air in the league. he was a major badass in his prime. but was he ever the toast of the league like you make him out to be? no. i'm all for saluting a player, but have some touch w/ reality.
tyleral45 4 years ago
for the heat he was, and were any players other then jordan and the bulls a "toast of the league" back then?? exactly
gghochu 4 years ago
obviously shaq was; named one of the 50 greatest players after only 4 years in the league (the same amount of time mourning had been in the league)
tyleral45 4 years ago
shaq is a freak of nature that comes into the league maybe every half decade or so and when did i ever say that zo was the 50 greatest. i said he was the focal point for the heat, and one of the best centers during that period IDIOT.
gghochu 4 years ago
not half a decade but i meant HALF A CENTURY
gghochu 4 years ago
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST, KID! I KNOW YOU NEVER SAID THAT AOBUT THE 50 GREATEST. GET A FUCKING CLUE!!!! I USED IT AS A POINT TO SHOW THAT IT WASN'T JUST JORDAN GETTING HEADLINES. THERE WERE OTHER PLAYERS BETTER THAN ZO BACK THEN. gah, i feel like i'm trying to carry on a convo w/ a baboon
tyleral45 4 years ago
when did i say zo was the best player or there weren't other players better then zo. the fact you have no commonse sense and can't read is not my fault idiot
gghochu 4 years ago
the fact that you sound like a fourth grader after every post because you type 'idiot' at the end is not my fault either, you idiot
tyleral45 4 years ago
so any person that calls you an idiot is a fourth grader now, how intriguing nincompoop. yea go look that up idiot
gghochu 4 years ago

lol. can you say future valedictorian? i think so. 4.0 GPA baby. so suck my phallus (in the hindu religion, one of brahma's forms is a phallus)
tyleral45 4 years ago
he is still the top 5 best center in the league behind D howard, yao, shaq, and Caman(not in particular order)
gghochu 4 years ago
does he start? negative
tyleral45 4 years ago
the fact that he doesn't start and yet is still one of the better centers in the league was what made him astounding retard
gghochu 4 years ago
you know, calling me retard (esp when i'm always right) only hurts your credibility. at least mix it up and make it creative...btw, since when does 7 ppg make you a top 5 center? the only impressive thing he does now is block shots; that's it.
tyleral45 4 years ago
i am calling you a retard because you obviously don't read or know any FACTS. yes his scoring is low but the impact that he makes. go check his stats when he played starter minutes. Heats going to suck even more then they are since zo's career is now over
gghochu 4 years ago
suck more? they're already in last place in the east. it's hard to get worse when you already are the worst
tyleral45 4 years ago
the heat is the worst in the eastern conference and unless shaq plays better then he is now, the heat will get worse without zo RETARD
gghochu 4 years ago
varojao makes an impact. leandro barbosa makes an impact. i think the only things that zo provides at this point is lockerroom leadership and shotblocking
tyleral45 4 years ago
so you are saying that is not an impact?
gghochu 4 years ago
not as much as when he was younger, no.
tyleral45 4 years ago
btw, remember that vince carter dunk on zo a couple years ago??? ooooo baby, zo really blocked that one, didn't he? p-o-s-t-e-r-i-z-e-d
tyleral45 4 years ago
and how many players did zo stuff or sent that shit out of there? he gets the respect because he is fearless and isn't afraid to get "posterized" like lots of nba players. yes he got posterized by vc but so did lots of other players, also go look at some footage of zo tossing vc's shit out
