Famous content creator and media personality Kenny Beecham is as die-hard as they come when it comes to the Chicago Bulls, and he recently sat down with luxury streetwear designer Don C to talk about his all-time favorite Bulls players.
GOAT on top
Popularly known as KOT4Q (short for King of the 4th Quarter), Beecham's Mt. Rushmore is topped off by the GOAT Michael Jordan, who not only won six championships with the Bulls but also left an unforgettable mark on NBA history.
"Got to respect the greatest of all time. Mike got to be on the Mount Rushmore," said Beecham.
Next up is Scottie Pippen, the iconic small forward who was part of all six championship teams and could do it all on the court.
"I gotta throw Pippen there too," added Beecham.
Beecham next mentioned Bulls legend Derrick Rose, the youngest MVP in league history.
"I gotta put my boy D Rose on there. I remember exactly where I was when we won the lottery. That a was a big moment for me," shared Beecham of the Simeon product who energized the Bulls fanbase before tearing his ACL in the 2012 NBA Playoffs.
JCrossover is his last pick
Beecham then shared who his last—but definitely not least—pick for his Mt. Rushmore of Chicago Bulls players was—the sensational guard Jamal Crawford. Although the shifty guard did not spend that much time with the Bulls, his stint in the Windy City was enough to make Beecham fall in love with his hometown team.
"Then lastly, I don't know if this is going to be a sneaky pick or whatever, but for my own personal one. He wasn't here for that long but Jamal Crawford. My first memory of basketball is watching Jamal Crawford versus Allen Iverson in 2003. I had already liked the game of basketball but that game made me love the Bulls," said Beecham, who was referring to the April 15, 2003 clash between Chicago and Philadelphia at the United Center.
In that game, Crawford had 33 points and eight assists to lead the Bulls past the Sixers, 115-106, outdueling Iverson who had 42.
