    Describe something about an old school Forward. After you make a guess please post your own for others to reply. NO Google allowed!This player was drafted in the 1977 NBA draft by the Boston Celtics. He is the one who gave the great Robert Parish the nickname "Chief". He was traded to the LA Clippers for Bill Walton in a blockbuster deal. This player has 2 championship rings.

    Mitch RichmondThe player was a big part of the Celtics' success in the '50s and '60s, often left out when talking about that great team. He was Rookie of the Year in 1957.

    This player, who has one ring, was a Class of 89 Draft Pick, and was in a trade that was cancelled due to his failed physical. He would have been a Rocket. He retired recently. He played for the team he was drafted by near the end of his career, but had a stint in an eastern conference team.

    Yeah, it's not Cliff. The mystery man is a Small Forward.
