    103 of 157.

    Some of these names are scrubs I've never heard of. I forgot Scottie Pippen:mad:, but it's not like he mattered in the first place...:grin:

    i suck

    Missed a lot of obvious ones like Sam Cassell, Scott Brooks, Othella Harrington, Matt Maloney, Kevin Willis, Moochie Norris, Shandon Anderson, Kenny Thomas and Walt Williams.

    Nailed obscure players like Dave Feitl, Emanual Email Davis, Sam Mack, Pete Chilcutt, Carlos Rogers, Chris Jent, Winston Garland and John Turner

    Really random question, but does anyone know anything about a guy named Tod Murphy? He appears in my copy of the 1992-93 Team Yearbook, but he isn't listed in the roster for the season.

    Was he cut after preseason?

    I liked sam mack, except I remember him missing like 4 easy jumpers that costed Clyde his quadruple double. I was at that game! One of my favs that many probably don't remember was Tim Breaux. We used to isolate for him (Hakeem included) and he had a monster first step and some hops.

    Got 106 out of 157 answers correct.

    Embarrassed to say that i forgot guys like chucky brown, sleepy floyd, and moochie. I also forgot about pippen, but i'd like to think thats just because i purposely blocked him out.

    Obviously the numbers sound more impressive than it should be. i.e. due to shared last names and multiple seasons.

    I am impressed at myself for remembering Pig Miller, Tony Massenburg, and Antoine Carr for some ridiculous reason. :)

    I got lucky too. Once I realized I didn't need full names, common names like Smith and Johnson helped me get a few that I would not have gotten. Now that we're all talking about it everyone is gonna start whooping us, haha.

    Still, very fun little game. I didn't start watching until the first championship year (not a bandwagoner, seriously randomly chose a team mid season, then they won it). But the toughest years for me were the the early nineties and (surprisingly) the last team of the decade. I guess I didn't watch much that season because I was just getting into middle school and we sucked worse than we ever had in my whole time as a fan.

    Yes!

    I remember Sam Mack getting called for a block on MJ when Chicago was in town, and it was clearly a charge. Rudy and the crowd went nuts. The Rockets went on a run after that and finished on a huge run, kinda' blowing the Bulls out.

    Phil Jackson pushed the camera away as he was walking off the court. I still have that game on VHS somewhere...lol..

    Is it weird that the first guy who popped in my head was Tim Breaux?
