Why do you hate Russ Schoene?

Always liked Sam Perkins and his physics-defying but strangely accurate three-ball. Big men who could shoot from range were a lot rarer back then.

Also liked Kendall Gill because he was freaky athletic but had a complete game.

 

[Fishpo31]

Freddie a very close second…

 

[PurpleThrobber]

No love for Dale Ellis??

 

[DawgOfTheAges]

Freddie was my second as well… watching him invent the notion of “downtown” with real accuracy was really fun…

So many great players, too many to choose from, great franchise history ~ Howard Schultz goes down as the All time sports grinch in the history of Seattle Sports.

Fuck Howard Schultz. Fuck Steve Balmer, too.

Fuck anyone who had anything to do with that ownership group.

Kids tied their laces around the heel to be like Gus
He was Gary Payton before GP. He scored. He defended. I hated it when he sat out and that was like the first taste of athletes sitting out.

As I recall, he was never the same after he sat out the year.

He averaged 23, 18, and 20 the three years after the sit out. Then he went to the Bullets and averaged 23, 13, and then into single digits. He was done by his early 30’s

Hated him. Came up small all the time.

I don't really have a clear cut favorite, but Xman kicked ass in the late 80s. Bill got into the Sonics when they beat the Mavs and Rockettes in the playoffs as a seven seed.
