In the spirit of Michael Jordan’s Hall of Fame Speech, I encourage you to purchase his cologne for a limited time. Bryon Russell appeared on ESPN’s Outside the Lines and has challenged his airness to a 1-on-1 game with Mitch Richmond as the referee with Mark Jackson as the announcer. Even at age 46 GOAT would still bust his ass. Just to make in interesting, G.O.A.T. wins as time expires. Four years from now when G.O.A.T. turns 50 he still wins at the buzzard.
Finally someone has signed Allen Iverson!! The Memphis Grizzlies gave the future first ballot Hall of Famer a 1-year deal worth $3 million. Hard to imagine The Answer had a hard time finding work. But then I realize other than scoring, will a 34 year old shoot first player help or hinder the development of young guards Mike Conley, OJ Mayo? With his career winding down, AI could teach OJ Mayo how to become a killer on the court and Conley how to attack the basket. Other than that, Conley will have to learn the point guard game from assistant coach Damon Stoudamire. Will Memphis make the playoffs? Nope but with the departure of Coach Cal to Kentucky the pro team is now offically the best basketball team in Memphis.Well training camp is around the corner and I can’t wait so my blog will be updated more often as the season begins.

Greatest HOF Class Ever
There's no "I" in team but there's an "I" in win - Michael Jordan (Hall of Fame Speech)
On September 13, 2009 in Springfield, Massachusetts the basketball Hall of Fame inducted David Robinson, John Stockton, Jerry Sloan, Vivian Stringer, and Michael Jordan. This will go down as the greatest Hall of Fame Class in basketball history. The all-time assist & steals leader, one of the greatest centers of all-time, and the greatest player of all-time in the same class. Next year's class will have Scottie Pippen, Karl Malone headlining but let's breakdown this class:
John Stockton - At first I was surprised he chose Isiah Thomas to stand by him instead by him rather than Karl Malone but game recognize game...one point guard to another. Stockton ran the same pick-n-roll play almost 20 years plus he was and excellent defender. Well deserved 1st ballot. Overall his speech was nice as he thanked his teammates, coaches, family, and friends.
David Robinson - In 1994 The Admiral won the scoring title on the 82nd game by scoring 71 points. His Spurs team improved by 30 games his rookie year. The Admiral was an offensive & defensive presence for the Spurs from 1990 to 2003 but his speech was spiritual and pleasant.
Michael Jordan - G.O.A.T probably gave the greatest HOF speech ever. From saying shit to choosing David Thompson to stand by him. Money stated he grew up idolizing him which makes sense because if I were going to the HOF, I would ask Kenny Anderson to stand with me. MJ mentioned his high school coach made a mistake cutting him, Dean Smith should have placed him in the starting lineup, the players in the championship not the owners...and Byron Russell. MJ pretty much told everyone I'm the greatest and also expressed his "love" for John Starks. If he does comeback at the age of 50, Money could average 20 ppg.
