i understand that
but what you are saying is still a if propostion "IF" Ewing had a another high profile player..etc.etc we still don't know if anything would be different vmart. Ewing could of played worst. That theory does prove he needed help but does not prove he was a superstar. but what is proof he never brought it when it counted, take for example, Magic and micheal. Magic loss the superstar as rookie in game 6 of the championship against a even matched philly team. Magic could of used that as a excuse as we are doing for EWing. but he didn't he played Center score 42, 15 re's and over 10 assist.
Jordan scored 63 with no help against a great boston team. he loss the team but he made the effort ewing never took it the extra mile
and the main fact he got dominated routiny bylesser opponents hurts the superstar tag big time. SMits had less support than ewing. but damn he gave it to ewing many of times. cartwright, ewing was our advantage against the bulls, he was the only one that didn't know it
lastly i usually use this bullet for my good buddy nec, but i will give you a crack
Name another superstar that was held to 1 point in a playoff game??? EVer. like ewing against indiana.
patrick ewing is more know for what he couldn't do, finger rolls, getted stripped three times to ignite reggie in 1994 etc
David Rabinson he scored 0 against the Lakers. Your talking about an injured Ewing not the Ewing in his prime. What about the Ewing who showed up against Miami who out played Mourning in his last days.
