Lefty?

Postby Nel on Mon May 29, 2006 9:45 pm

Could someone please tell me if theres a left handed swingman that made the NBA Top 50 list and on the same caliber of MJ, Bird, DR.J? I find it weird that nowadays there's no left handed swingman on the same caliber as kobe, bron wade etc. You might say michael redd but he's a shooter. Please answer me if there's anyone who made the list. Thanks.

David Robinson, Dave Cowens are lefties but they are big men. I know a ton of lefties but none of them are exactly that great. :lol:

Hey, watch it, I'm a lefty. Just because I bump elbows with people at the dinner table while I'm eating doesn't make me any less of a human being. :cry:

The only other lefty on the Top 50 that I can think of is Bill Russell, and he definitely wasn't a swingman.

I'm 99.9% sure Lenny Wilkens was a point guard. Didn't know he was a lefty though.

I guess you never played the 60's all stars in NBA live Andrew :) Lenny and Tiny are the only players i can think of but they're more of point guards than swingmen. What about Billy Cunninghan, wasn't he lefty?

How 'bout Chris Mullin? I think he's the only lefty legend swingman. But I'm not sure if he's in the top 50.

Mullin is a good player but i don't consider him a superstar though. It just amazes me the lack of great lefty swingman in the nba. Almost all of them are right handed. Thanks to the replies.

His was the name that came immediately to mind when I first saw the thread but he wasn't named Top 50.

Anthony, I think its best if you shutup. Seriously, act a little more mature and smarten up with what you say. He didn't insult you because he knows better than to make a cheeky remark like you did. Have you ever thought of it that way?

Lefties are too good for the NBA, they all felt it was a waste of time. Only the reject lefties went to play. Why do you think I sit at home instead of go to the NBA?
