    It's increasingly hopeless, so let's look at the PAST.</p>

    1. Only one player won 1) an NBA ring, 2) an ABA ring, and 3) an NCAA championship?</p>

    Was it A) Jerry Lucas, [​IMG] Tom Thacker, or C) Julius Erving.</p>

    2. Seven players have won 1) an Olympic gold medal, 2) an NBA championship and 3) an NCAA championship. They are: Bill Russell, KC Jones, Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Jerry Lucas, Clyde Lovelette, and: </p>

    Was it A) John Havilchek, [​IMG] Quinn Buckner, or C) Patrick Ewing.</p>

    3. Which former player has 12 NBA rings, as a player, assistant coach, and coach?</p>

    Is it: A) Bill Russell, [​IMG] Tommy Heinsohn, or C) K.C. Jones.</p>

    4. Who was the only Net to ever record a 5x5 game--five or more points, assists, rebounds, steals and blocks--in the NBA?</p>

    Was it A) Jason Kidd, [​IMG] Buck Williams, or C) Derrick Coleman.</p>

    5. Speaking of 5x5's, what player has come closest in the last 20 years to recording a 20/20/20 game--20 points, 20 rebounds, 20 assists?</p>

    Was it A) Rod Strickland, [​IMG] Jason Kidd, or C) Kevin Garnett.</p>

    6. Keeping with the five pattern, which of the following former players does not have five NBA rings?</p>

    Is it A) Bill Cartwright, [​IMG] John Salley, or C) Michael Cooper.</p>

    7. Two Nets on the training camp roster were the "last man in the Green Room" the night they were drafted. Marcus Williams was one, who was the other?</p>

    Was it A) Mateen Cleaves, [​IMG] Jumaine Jones or C) Richard Jefferson.</p>

    8. Jason Kidd needs how many three point field goals to reach the top 10 in NBA history. The magic number is:</p>

    A) 102, [​IMG] 61, or C) 214.</p>

    Answers when I feel like it.</p>

    Look, NetIncome, even if you asked me some question from Matrix Algebra I'd have a better chance of giving a correct answer, but as for these - I'll pass [​IMG]</p>

    Number 3 is KC Jones, I think. And my guess for number 4 is Buck Williams.</p>

    1. B. Tom Thacker.

    2. B. Quinn Buckner.

    3. C. KC Jones, 9 as a player +1 as an assistant +2 as a head coach.

    4. C. 1993, DC had 21 points, 10 rebounds, 7 assists, 5 steals and 5 blocks for the only 5x5 in Nets history on January 15, 1993.

    5. A. Rod Strickland had 21 points, 20 assists and 12 rebounds on February 10, 1998.

    6. B. John Salley. He has four, with three teams. Cartwright has five: three as a player, two as assistant coach. Cooper has five as a player...plus two as a coach of WNBA champs.

    7. B. Jumaine Jones, taken at #27 in 1999.

    8. B. Kidd needs 61 three's to break into the top 10 all time.</p>

    I was about to post replies to this...I love those trick questions, where there's some big thing someone did, and there's two superstars and a "normal guy" as the answers. Always turns out to be that "normal guy".</p>

    and I knew #4 right on the spot. Derrick Coleman is awesome.</p>
