A star studded class was enshrined tonight and this clip shows just some of the highlights.
I was very surprised by Jordan’s speech. In particular, how he gave credit to Scottie Pippen and numerous other members of the Bulls organization. I was also surprised at how emotional he was. His was gratitude, more than anything. And it conveyed the love of the game for which I never faulted the man. Only that he never let my guys win.
I thought it was especially interesting that he took a jab at Jerry Krause in his speech talking about the players going out and playing and that the organization comes second to the players because the organization may put together the team but the players still have to go out there and do it. Very interesting.
David Robinson’s speech was pretty good too. The bit where he says that Tim was his answer to prayers was funny as hell.
I am glad that these folks got in. Hopefully, the HoF can keep the riff raff out ….
