Premium Member mrhonline Posted January 10, 2010 Premium Member Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Wow. That's impressive. I go back less than a decade... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member niremetal Posted January 10, 2010 Premium Member Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Wow. That's impressive. I go back less than a decade... From recent years, my favorite was Chris Crawford, who got injured twice right when he seemed to be putting it together. Going back, I'm a fan of Randy Wittman.

Premium Member Sothron Posted January 10, 2010 Premium Member Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 I always wished Cal Bowdler was a better player than he turned out to be. He was always polite to Jaywalker and myself when I sit next to Jay at some of the games we went to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endy9 Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Nice list. I'll never forget Truck Robinson helping us end the Lakers long winning streak in a big upset. I don't have heights and colleges but here's some additions that I enjoyed watching. Not sure where to draw the line with "lessor". Guess I'll use as a standard, ones I don't hear mentioned. I'll leave out Pete since he was a superstar. Lou Hudson Walt Hazzard Jimmy Washington Bill Bridges Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lou Hudson Walt Hazzard Jimmy Washington Bill Bridges I don't think Sweet Lou qualifies as "lesser." He was the team's centerpiece for several years and should be in the Hall of Fame.

coachx Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 How about a little John Battle and some Antoine Carr ? We need an Antoine Carr on this team, off the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Sothron Posted January 11, 2010 Premium Member Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 What was that one guy's name who hit like 8 threes in one game on a ten day contract to help us beat the Bullets when they had Webber? Henry James? That game was amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what is scarier, the fact I remembered his name or that I remembered exactly his hitting eight threes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T21 Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Scott Hastings, Antoine Carr, Cliff Levingston, John Battle, Mike McGee, John Koncak, Spud... that was our second unit back when I started lovin' our Hawks! Lineup was Nique, Big Kev, Tree, Wittman and Doc... NBA was somethin' else in those days, less commercial, less politicaly driven, almost free of f***in' agent-bloodsuckers...
