Michael Jordan. LeBron James. Kobe Bryant. Allen Iverson. Gary Payton.
There aren't too many humans on the planet that can say they guarded all of those Hall of Famers in the NBA, but Erick Strickland is one of them.
The University of Nebraska Basketball Hall of Famer has loads of awesome stories to tell about his nine-year career in the league (1996-2005), and a bevvy of opinions on both the current state of the game and the great Michael Jordan versus LeBron James debate.
In a cigar-smoking 45-minute chat with Happy Hour host John Gaskins, "Strick," now a sports talk host at 93.7 The Ticket in Lincoln, plays both head coach of the Minnesota Timberwolves and commissioner of the NBA in opining on how both operations could be better.
How can the Wolves turn around the series after an ugly game in OKC? How should the NBA market itself better win back the casual fans it lost after Jordan retired?
Whether you're an NBA nut, casual fan, or abandoned your interest in basketball's highest level years ago, you'll get a kick out of "Strick."
