Your favorite 90's player(s)?

messier2 · 11-17-2021, 02:50 PM

I was at the Canada Expo show and bought some really nice 90's cards of players I watched growing up. I'm sure many of these kids now don't even know who Iverson, Vinsanity, KG, etc. are! They may have heard of them but you can't appreciate a players' talent unless you watched them live.

So, who are your favorite 90's players?

For me, it's Iverson, Carter, MJ, and Kobe.

What about you?

rogueriver · 11-17-2021, 02:54 PM

Jordan , Magic ( Mostly 1980s but played in 1990's and Kobe....
Or Jordan Jordan and Jordan

Penny Hardaway..favorite player of all time, and if Vince counts for 90's..then Dirk would be my next favorite

Shawn Kemp and Hakeem.

If there are any kemp and Hakeem collectors on insta please let me know and I will give you a follow you.

Vince is my favorite player of all time. After that, I was a huge fan of Penny, Kemp, Payton, and T-Mac.

KG is my all time favorite player. Had the pleasure of watching him play since I grew up in Minnesota, my dad had season tickets for us in his MVP year when they went to the Western Conference Finals. Easily the best year of sports in my life.

1) KG
2) Allen Iverson
Tier below) Shaq, Jordan, Kobe, Tim Duncan
Tier below that) Barkley, McGrady

Jordan, Penny, Zo

Got me in the basketball

messier2 · 11-17-2021, 04:06 PM

Great choices! Loved the NBA back then....that's "real" basketball IMO. Now, it's all about one-on-one's and isolation!

Love picking up PSA 10 cards of these guys...pretty cheap IMO!

tamparican · 11-17-2021, 04:08 PM

1) Iverson - He was just different, my main PC
2) Penny - My first PC, what could’ve been!
3) Kobe - Mamba

Vince and T-Mac would round out my list..

messier2 · 11-17-2021, 04:10 PM

I have a soft spot in my heart for AI. I never liked his team, but for a player barely 6'0" to win 4 scoring titles and one MVP...is just truly amazing and we'll probably never see that again for any player that's 6'0" tall!

Rip67vdub · 11-17-2021, 04:21 PM

MJ, AI and Penny.

brettmik59 · 11-17-2021, 04:38 PM

Iverson - I started collecting him because of the way he left it all on the court every night. He was electrifying (great insert set from '98) and had the rare combo of finesse and toughness for a small guard.

jbball50 · 11-17-2021, 05:16 PM

MJ, olajuwon, sabonis, Eddie Jones, Rodman, and kg.

jbmm161 · 11-17-2021, 05:25 PM

Shaq, Chris Webber, David Robinson, and Vince Carter.

When Penny was overtaken by another Hardaway in Beckett values I was furious.

Tim was incredible though.

Penny Gets a lot of love, great player but I didn't realize how many people have him as their favorite.

To me those players that made the transition to coaching are most intriguing. The Yogi Berras and Dusty Bakers of the trade. Because you can see their influence on the current crop.
