    Blazers "owner" Paul Allen

    Sam Bowie 1993-94 Los Angeles Lakers Anthony Peeler

    Yeah, I tried to do Pete maravich and Patty Cakes. I think the easiest part is when the players play far, far apart.

    No love for Joel? :) I think Joel is more prominent/helped us win more games than Greg has.

    The John Long to Marcus Camby connection is huge in a lot of these scenarios. Kinda like Kevin Bacon and the JFK/A Few Good Men situation.

    Oracle at UVA did this with actors back in the late 90's. The trick was to get as high a unique number of separation without getting a "no connection". I think the highest they got to was 11.
