[shari91]

dirk nowitki for the first one

Incorrect. That's the answer they expected someone to go with but the real one is a little more difficult. Same for the others I think.

[shari91]

[Pajda]

A senior point guard out of Wake Forest, I was drafted shortly after another highly notable point guard who, like me, has since averaged double-digits in assists over a full season. Eventually becoming the Hornets' starting point, I soon proved to be essential to the team's success; my speed and ball-handling skills allow me to squeak through almost any defense. I've also made a name for myself stealing the ball. I got myself a gold medal playing for the U.S. National Men's Team. Who am I?

Chris Paul ?

[shari91]

Detlef Schrempf?

Yes!

[Chi_archie]

No - he was never a Senior at Wake Forest.

[shari91]

Stanley Roberts is correct! Shaq was drafted in '92, not '91.

Damn you guys are good.

Kenny only ended up with a bronze medal. That's the trick in that one.

Muggsy Bogues ?

[shari91]

As a Heavyweight, I beat two future world champs and was known for my punching power. I had a winning streak of 50 fights and was a #1 contender but never received a title shot. Who am I?

ooooo that's a good one.... I'm not very good with boxing history....


just saw the facing Ali, documentary... and I feel like its one of those guys, but I can't think of his name

big black guy that lives in England

[stealthyburrito]

mike tyson

[Chi_archie]

I was thinking it was ernie shavers from the facing ali movie... but I looked up his stats, its not him...


the only other guess I could make since I don't know boxing too well, is that somehow Rocky marciano never got an actual title shot, because the belt was forfeited too him or somthing.... cuz he must have had 50 straight wins...

otherwise it must have been some old old dude

[shari91]

I was my original team's first ever draft pick and I played nearly a thousand games in the NHL. I scored 40+ goals twice and have over 80 points on 3 occasions. I must be the curse of death - my teams kept moving after I left. Who am I?

[Chi_archie]
