This is what I remember about Christian Laettner, not his last second shot against Kentucky, or his storied career:

Eh, that's just an ordinary mistake. It's not like it was an Artest-Harden elbow.

my sarcasm meter is off a bit so... you did hear him admit he did it on purpose?

I was a little unclear but I meant mistake in his judgment. I didn't mean that it was accidental. It was a bad act but it's not the one thing I'd remember from someone's career.

The guy was not hurt, he was laughing and smiled that he got the call.
Duke does have its haters and L8ner certainly drew much dislike.
All that whiteness, handsome boy band good looks, success and arrogance just too much to take.
L8ner was an asswhole, but the guy had an amazing college career.
Same for Hurley.

The talent divide was so huge it wouldn't matter. Also, back then almost all the players were fundamentally and positionally sound. Today it's different since the talent gap has significantly gotten closer to the NBA. Back then it was like pitting Junior High school kids against NBA pros.

Zeke deserved to be there however outside the team, he was disliked by lots of players in NBA.
Even our Oakley Knicks wasnt superstar wasnt as disliked as Superstar Zeke. Yea I know Karl Malone wasnt liked either but Zeke had him beat.
Many stars of past and present wasnt as disliked by players. Dislike outside in media (fans) is another story
All in all Zeke made his bed a little bit before & after MJ.
