"The Waiter" - A Toni Kukoč Story | Chicago Bulls | Kukoč's role in the Last Dance and more!

[@Bribrandon2010]

Toni deserves his number up in the rafters of the United Center.

[@JoseOrtiz-fc7mj]

What’s going on with the franchise? Why not retire his number? Unreal. This guy is one of the best international players of all time. He wore a Bulls jersey, retire that thing!

[@stephcurrytheg.o.a.t]

Horace Grant and Rodman should be there also

[@MozTheBoz]

If Artis Gilmore is not up there, nobody should be up there other than number 4, 10, 33, and 23

[@GPsarakis]

@@JoseOrtiz-fc7mj It should be for sure, I think now that he's finally in the HOF (should've been in there long ago IMO), it'll happen.

[@meg-k-waldren]

True. But frankly I no longer see the honor in Bulls rafters. With the exception of the MJ era, the Bulls have been a utter disgrace of a organization. That organization owes everything to MJ, Pip, Kukoc, Jackson etc. The Bulls will never be a dynasty again. Maybe one ring every 30 years if lucky but never a dynasty ever again.

[@thewaymouth]

The last shot that Toni hit against the Knicks -- when Pippen refused to take the floor -- is one of the greatest moments ever.

[@Lazbotable]

That part of The Last Dance was really good, I liked that Pippen apologised and accepted that he was wrong.

[@ericbutler739]

I remember as a Knicks fan, once I saw him play, we were doomed. Jordan and Pippen were enough. Adding Rodman was a bigger problem for other teams,Knicks were used to Rodman. But this guy was just something nobody was ready for. He killed us a few times. The other guy who gets no love is Longley, he was just another center, but dude was always coming up with clutch plays, rebounds,passes, taking fouls, flops, just played his talents to the max and found ways to do damage. Jordan was the goat,but he had more help than people realize, if you saw the games, you know.

[@bjnaves1192]

⁠@@ericbutler739Facts. Both 3 peat teams had some amazing role players who glued in on their role. GSW reminds me a lot of them as far as the understanding of their roles

[@grantmehl812]

It’s about damn time people start showing some love to “the waiter” Toni Kukoc. Some of his accolades achieved over his career are one of a kind. One of the greatest international players of all time. If Toni had his own team and or even if he played his natural position in his early prime years which was a facilitator and ball handler he could of easily averaged 20+PPG, 7 AST, 7 RBD easily.. the man was way ahead of his time. His game was something not seen before, can play all 5 positions.. could do everything on the court shoot, pass, dribble there was nothing he couldn’t do and excel at it.

Christmas 1985. Real Madrid basketball holds his traditional Christmas tournament. I was there.

Thre were a few guys nobody had heard of on that team, or at least they were not known internationally. A 19 year old Žarko Paspalj, and 17 year olds, Vlade Divac and Toni Kukoc. Drazen Petrovic was also there, as well as Stojan Vrankovic. In fact, both of them showed up late, and the game had already started. Drazen was already a superstar in Europe, but we did not know we were witnessing the birth of some other legends.

@@deniszubovic7516 bud look at the size of him and playing a sport as rigorous as basketball I mean he was probably in a calorie deficit all the time. He didn’t bulk up much in Italy it wasn’t until the bulls primed him to change his position the year Mike was fully coming back I believe he threw on at-least another 20-30 pounds on his frame. I think we all know Toni obviously knew what was best for him and probably was skeptical about all sudden change but his decision in the end, to sacrifice his game and playing style to ultimately be a role player for Mike and Pippen.. it lead to 3 rings and to one of the greatest seasons in NBA history (70wins) and a 6th man award! All while coming off the bench ( 14 PPG behind Mike and pippen) I’d call that an overachievement considering the era of basketball (90s was the toughest era) and all the sudden changes/adjustments he managed. We all know Toni could of averaged splits of 22PPG/7AST/7RBD on his own team playing his true position, it was all in the name of winning 🙌 he managed to hit career highs in PPG (20PPG) in the two seasons after Mike Pip and majority of the team split.

In that era premium was on size and bulk so you might be right. Game has changed and I am probably transposing Kukoc's game with this era. All I am saying is that Light Kukoc was better player than Heavy Kukoc. Would Bulls win last three championships with Light Kukoc? Pretty sure they would. However, I am pretty sure that by not taking care of his body, Kukoc shortened his career. Not blaming coaches, that's on him. Did you know that Kukoc had heart attack few years back?

This player deserves his uniform retired by the organization that he played before and then hang his uniform in the rafters in United center as the former player of a championship team in 1996-1998 Chicago bulls with the goat Michael Jordan and greatest sidekick ever Scottie pippen and former great players like him and also the great coaches beyohd the triumph triangle defense and offense of phil Jackson.... Toni kukoc and his uniform deserves to retire it by the management ☺️☺️☺️☺️

In 97 Tony broke my heart. It hurts to hear that without him we could have had it but love to him as well. as a proud Hoosier.. Made me smile that they're the only ones who pushed to game 7. Love to Tony & pacers

Toni was such a phenomenal player. He earned his HOF spot, no question about it.

So humble!! quiet assassin Toni is one of my favourite players. and the UnstopaBulls were amazing we can´t get enough of them so the last dance part 2 is absolutely necessary focused on them..

I personally still think that Toni Kukoc is still the best European player by far.

If you were to tell Toni Kukoc that he would correct you and say Drazan Petrovic was... and Toni would be right!

[@dinkosumar369]

Sure that he was and he is...😉

Aww, man; so many good memories. I love that 96-98 Bulls team. And Kukoc was such an important player (best 6th man, crucial 4th quarter player, etc.). He was one of the first 6'11" players with an outside shot (and perimeter skills). Often overlooked by today's so-called pundits.
