The most infamous one amongst them involves former Detroit Pistons player Isiah Thomas and the 1992 Olympics Dream Team. Despite being one of the best NBA players of that era, Thomas was not invited to join the star-studded roster which included Charles Barkley, Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, etc. 32 years after they played, one member of the roster has gone out to send his flowers to the Pistons legend, even if it came at the expense of putting down the stats of Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry.Best porn XXX. A few hours ago, 76ers legend Charles Barkley appeared for an interview on the ‘Dan Patrick Show’. During the same, he highlighted feeling bad for Isiah Thomas since he never got the “love and respect that he deserved”. “If I was in a game …. If I had to choose between Steph Curry and Isiah Thomas, I’d probably go with Isiah in a scenario,” said Barkley. “I Love Steph Curry, I love Isiah but if I had one guy to choose between those two, I’m not ever going to choose against Isiah”.
