Good memories... Love his reaction after he hit the last clutch 3pt.

I just saw in turkish sports news, he basically claimed that he understood he wont be as good as he was before physically after injuries, thats why he retires. Discuss

....just another guy the Jazz signed/had that owes them a big rebate for underachieving. Stole about as much money from the Jazz as Ostertag and Klinko did!

You are nuts.

Happy trails, dude.

Still bitter about that extension, though...

The Jazz made a shrew move though by trading him to the Nets. It was a great salary dump and created the trade exception used to acquire Mo. Granted, the season after the injury was a waste.

In all seriousness, Memo might just be the most beloved Jazz player of all time, even more than Stockton & Malone.

.....what drugs are you using....and where can I get some?

You know, your franchise leader and your most beloved Jazz player might not be the same player. That`s normal.

More highlights please. I remember Prodigy made a great Memo mix, but it looks like it has been removed from youtube. Prodigy, any way to get that back up or post in this thread?

...I may have been a little too rough on ya! But when you start talking about Stockton and Malone in any sentence concerning the Jazz and the franchise....well, there's Stockton and Malone and EVERYBODY else is a distant second in ANY category or emotion, including "beloved!"

I've heard a lot of stories of Stockton being rude and blowing people off. And while Malone was much more of a people-person than Stockton, his on again/off again feuds with Larry Miller rubbed a lot of people the wrong way. Plus he had a kid with a 13 year old girl when he was 20. So yes, I think there's definitely a case to be made that Memo was more beloved than Stockton & Malone.
