Horace Grant would be a top 10 player in today's league

[TheMan]

[QUOTE=LAZERUSS]Grant's IMPACT went well beyond his stat-line.

From '91 thru '95, he averaged a 14-10 .550 FG%. And in his biggest series, he was clutch.

For instance, MJ couldn't beat the Bad Boys until '91 (of course, Detroit was crumbling by that time anyway.) In the '91 ECF's, Grant hung a 14-8 .690 FG% series (and Pippen put up a 22-8-5-3-2 series.) Then Grant punished the Laker front-line in the Finals with a 15-8 .627 Finals.

And, of course, Jordan got to witness first-hand just how great Grant was, when in the '95 ECSF's, Grant carried the Magic past MJ's Bulls with an 18-11 .647 series...

thanks to Jlip for this BTW...

Even Shaq acknowledge that it was GRANT who was that series MVP...

[LAZERUSS]

Yup, it was ALL because of Horace Grant that the Bulls first threepeated
Fvcking media and NBA fans fans with an agenda thinking MJ was the Bulls best player when clearly it was Grant...LAZ exposing the big lie

It should be Horace Grant in the GOAT conversation, not MJ

Thank you LAZ for helping expose MJ as a fraud Dude basically piggybacked Grant and Pippen to his three titles, those three FMVPs are as fake as two dollar bills

Nice try.

BUT, without an ELITE PF in his SIX title runs...we know that he didn't win even ONE ring.

Of course Grant made the Magic into title contenders the very next season after he left Chicago. And none other than Jordan got to witness just good Grant was, when Horace hung an 18-11 .647 series on his Bulls, all while leading the Magic to a series win in the ECSF's.

And who knows how his 60-22 Magic would have fared in '96 had Grant not been injured in game one of the ECF's. The Magic were 7-1 in that post-season, when Grant was injured. Coming into the ECF's, Horace had put up a staggering 17-12-.656 FG% stat-line in his first eight playoff games. And not only that, but he and Rodman went at it three times in the '95-96 season, and Grant averaged 13.7 ppg, 9.0 rpg, and shot .567 against Dennis (Rodman averaged 6.0 ppg, 16.3 rpg, and shot .389 against Horace.)

And a washed up Grant also contributed to a Laker title in 2001, as well.
