Larry Johnson and Alonzo Morning 10 points??

Question

Me and some co-workers were talking about the fightthey had back in 99' when Van Gundy was hanging on his leg.

My boy told me they never liked eachother going back to the Charlotte days because one slept with ones girlfriend.

Does anyone know if its true? Who did who's girl?

Answer 1

Maybe you are right, I am not sure

Answer 2

hard to tell you hear all kinds of stuff so who knows

Answer 3

Never happened.  Zo was miffed at LJ's bucks.

Answer 4

it had nothing to do with a girl... that was the jason kidd, jimmy jackson, and toni baxton (the singer) triangle that tore apart that team which both still deny...

this is what went down with larry and zo from espn.com

Johnson and Mourning, Charlotte Hornets teammates from 1992 to 1995, never got along. Johnson taunted Mourning in 1992, showing him his NBA Rookie of the Year leather coat, and saying, "Hey, young fellow, if you play real hard you might get one of these jackets." All the Hornets who heard the quip laughed -- except Mourning.

And though the two top draft picks were supposed to bring greatness to the Hornets franchise, nothing of the sort happened, as their relationship deteriorated. Just before the 1995-96 season, Mourning demanded $13 million a year from the Hornets. They countered with $11.2 million. Mourning said no go, got traded to Miami, and Johnson thought that Mourning's selfishness cost the team.

The rivalry continued when they opposed each other in coming years, culminating in a fistfight during a Knicks-Heat playoff game in 1998. But when a kidney disease struck Mourning, Johnson made up, first asking Mourning, before a game, if he was OK, then going over and shaking his hand. He clearly missed the rivalry. Upon learning of Mourning's condition in the preseason, Johnson said, "I want him out there so I can whoop him. I don't want him to be sick. When we play Miami I'd rather have him out there."
