I think you greatly underestimate Marcus Jordan. :scold:

Wilt didn't even survive to see Kobe's reign.

Anybody knowing this guy? The strangler of Boston: Andrew Toney. Don't know about his stats and did not look them up, but loved the videos. Crazy strange jumper. If it wasn't for injuries, maybe he could be included into this list (at least outside looking in).

With a longer career, he might've made the list but I wouldn't put him ahead of any of the players I listed in my top ten. Possibly at least worth an honourable mention though.

Great find, hova. Even though, he don't belong to the list here, what a special player whom most of us didn't know.

He wouldn't come close to any top ten list even when you take his five good years. Maybe if you were doing twenty or twenty-five.

Hey hova, did you read about him in five magazine, too? I had heard the name before, but was really intrigued after reading the article. (Y)

Well, there's one upside of the lockout. Retro special issues. :cool: I thoroughly enjoyed the Kelly Tripucka/White Goodman lookalike pic.
