Describe something about an old school Center. After you make a guess please post your own for others to reply. NO Google allowed!Your going to have to go way back for this one.This guy was just 6-6 but they didn't call him The Hors for nothing. He had practically no range on his shot, Yet averaged double figure points for the Knicks from 1950-58. One of the greatest undersized rebounders of all time, The seven-time All-Star who shared the center position with Nate Sweetwater Clifton. Led the league with 15 RPG in 1954 and ripped down over 10 rebounds a game for eight consecutive seasons as a Knick.

When healthy he was a good rebounder and had extreme court vision for a big man. He had a rare 3 point shot which was unheard of back then. He fought leg injuries throughout his career, He will be remembered forever in the NBA Draft record books, But not fora good thing....

Right with Vlade.I'm guessing Shawn Bradley-This player stayed with his team for his whole career.-Most famous moment was his title in 1970, when he played with an injured thigh and scored the first two baskets, leading his team to the title.-Hall of Famer-Nets GM from 1988 to 1996
Yeah the injured thigh and leading his team to a title in 1970 gave it away. I dont think it was an injured thigh though...he tore something.
