Adrian Dantley: The "POWER FORWARD'S WORST NIGHTMARE" who retired as a Top 10 Scorer All Time | FPP

Adrian Dantley was one of the most efficient scorers the game has ever seen. At just 6'5" He put the ball in the basket with more consistency than most of the big men of his era. He had the strength and size to bully smaller defenders, but a quick first step that would get him around the bigger defenders. He was crafty down low, could step out and hit a midrange shot and was one of the best finishers of his generation, but you almost never hear about a man who put up over 23,000 points in his career. And a big reason for that, is because that's all he did. He didn't play much defense, he wasn't one to pass the ball often and he didn't do much winning. Then when he finally found himself in a winning situation late in his career with the Bad Boys Detroit Pistons, he wouldn't accept a lesser offensive role in the name of the team success and publicly feuded with Isiah Thomas and Chuck Daly until he was shipped away en route to a couple more forgettable seasons before his final game in 1991. But Dantley was still a star almost everywhere he went, whether that was DeMatha high school under Morgan Wootten, playing for Notre Dame and upsetting the 1974 UCLA Bruins, led by Bill Walton and Jamaal Wilkes, to end their 88 game win streak, replacing Bob McAdoo, playing sidekick to Kareem Abdul Jabbar or being the star of the Utah Jazz after Pete Maravich and before John Stockton and Karl Malone, he was always a player you had to game plan for. But ego got in the way of winning, and his lack of team accolades doesn't see him get talked about very much. But a 6 time all star and two time scoring champ deserves some praise https://www.basketball-reference.com/... Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/genuine-colour/b...
