After choking his coach, he helped lead the Knicks to the NBA Finals and also made a few more All Star teams.
With the T-Wolves, he had already been in the league about 13-14 seasons, he was on his way out anyway.

It happens. Remember when Arenas missed those two, and he's super clutch.
I've seen Ray Allen, Reg Miller, Nash, all missed free throws down the stretch before.

He did make one more all-star appearance the following season, but he retired in 1981 at age 32.

Nick missed not 2 in a row, which he only needed 1 to ice game 1 of the 95 Finals. He got his own rebound and got fouled again and again proceeded to miss 2 again. He had 4 chances to ice the game and blew them all.
Shaq left after the following season. Its like Orlando never recovered from those 4 FTs.
Something like that wouldnt destroy elite players like Ray, Reggie, or Nash. But something like that can destroy role players forever.

I'd say Kermit is the one that applies in this thread.

if not because of this, kobe would be undisputed top 3 GOAT
2003 kobe was beasting, he's supposed to be the next MJ, should've won at least two more but one this turn of event **** him up:
- one of the reason for his feud with shaq
- Stern turn his back on him, that he replace kobe with his new toy wade

Re: Non injury moments that negatively affected a player's carrer
Pippen, refusing refusing to enter the game in the final seconds of Game 3 vs the Knicks in the ECSF. That really hurt his image, and his detractors loved to bring that up as proof of him not being dependable in the clutch.

(in my opinion, it's this play alone which has led people to anoint Olajuwon as the clear cut best center of the 90s and diminish Robinson's dominance)
And since we're speaking of the Magic:

Re: Non injury moments that negatively affected a player's carrer
@bout practice,
indeed
picture of admiral sitting on the bench after getting demolished by dream forever tarnished his rep
if you looked at his accolades until that point, you'd think that this is a guy who would arguably be called the greatest center ever...or in the convo..
Olajuwon forever changed the way david robinson was viewed..........
