21 duncan (2nd bing)

Close But at least a second here goes to Bill Sharman over Bing

 

[wjrwebber]

14 cousy

You would have to have Big O in there for sure

 

[ljandkg]

And for me KG ahead of Bing and Sharman at 21

 

[martyaud]

I was gonna say Lou Williams for #23 but then I remembered there was some guy called Michael and a new kid called LeBron who might be higher on the list

Does Warnie count?? or does this have to basketball?

Warne does have the most wickets of all time... & he count of women beats MJ anyday

 

[ljandkg]

Also Scot Pollard - #66 with the celtics.....

 

[dickyKnee]

Horace Grant for #54 and Ben i think Tim Perry might have doned the #26 and #27 but Korver has him covered anyway.

 

[Chris_paul]

Its kind of off the subject a little but I was thinking about how many numbers of each number there was and I think number 3 is used so much, id nearly say cp3 for that number but not quite yet its not ben wallace though. Iversons a good call but theres so many number 3s I always think im forgeting someone?????? Anyone?

 

[Chris_paul]

Michael redd 22 , prolly some old school player I dont know about though.

Marion has to be 31.

 

[nandalinnaung]

Would vote Clyde Drexler. who won every step of competitions he was in..

[Chris_paul]

lol yeah im crap at this, Clyde I didnt know hes number hes defenatley better then redd.

 

[nenjabin]

Michael redd 22 , prolly some old school player I dont know about though.

Marion has to be 31.

Reggie Miller has Marion covered and thensame IMO!

Thanks Dicky for the info on the #26

 

[janvsshaq]

Can´t put Jordan on #45, he´ll be remebered for #23

#45 have to go for AC Green (ironman)

 

[chadjaja]

Chris Mullin over Havlicek. WOW! There's one I never thought would pop up. The all time Celtics leader in scoring and other things gets knocked by a guy with no ring who was a drunk!

And Drexler doesn't even get close to Elgin Baylor. If Elgin hadn't of retired he would of won his ring. Drexler got his as a pasenger. Baylor did just about everything else also and was completely dominant.

 

[JZA]

Close But at least a second here goes to Bill Sharman over Bing

well, both had stellar careers, maybe sharman gets the edge for his rings but neither is clearly above the other. i went with bing cos he was a class guy who was quiet but let his game do the talking.

 

[jordan23]

Can´t put Jordan on #45, he´ll be remebered for #23

#45 have to go for AC Green (ironman)

Yeah, but most pple remembered he played with that number during High school, baseball and back to the bulls. Therefore number 45 is still worthy of being mentioned with Jordan.

 

[basketoz74]

Yeah, but most pple remembered he played with that number during High school, baseball and back to the bulls.

Who remembers that, 58 posts on this topic and only two people mentioned it, and if it was so well remembered (even more so that you make mention that it was his high school number also) as you claim, why did mention of such NBA luminaries Erric Piatkowski, Gheorghe Muresean and Vlad Radmonovic warrant get just as mush air-time?
