Every franchise in every sport has those players that define a generation of fans. Unfortunately for some, those players don’t always lead their teams to titles, but years down the road, they talk about how great it was to grow up rooting for them. Take some of the other NBA teams that have yet to hang a banner in their arena, like the Phoenix Suns or Orlando Magic. I’m sure you could walk around Phoenix and hear fans talking about Kevin Johnson, Steve Nash, and Walter Davis, or in Orlando, those conversations might be about Nick Anderson, Penny Hardaway, and Dwight Howard.
