    Who would you say it is? I don't know any players that wear #33, but I'd sure like to find out.

    Scottie Pippen, Larry Bird, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Patrick Ewing...

    I'd say Bird.

    Whoa, I had no idea Bird and all these guys wore #33.

    It's a tough pick, they're all great players.

    Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is the greatest #33. Larry Bird is a close second.

    How about #32? Magic, Mchale, Shaq, Malone. And #34 isn't too bad either: Olajuwon, Barkely, Shaq (Lakers), Paul Pierce, Ray Allen.

    Barkley was #32 for a while.

    Larry Legend fo' sho' I've always seen Magic, MJ and him as the Revolutionary Pioneers of basketball, the greatest of all time. The way they uplifted popularity and brought the game back as well as elevating it to such high new levels. Hence my choosing of the bluecollar magician.
