Trivia Picture

Quick, know who this guy is? Hint: He once played for the Blazers.

 

He kind of looks like TP.

 

Heh, that's what I thought, as well. Obviously, no, though.

 

Yup. Good call.

 

I figured as much.

 

10 years in the NBA.

Wow, he retired early.
Kinda funny that he followed Bill Walton.

If that was Porter, that Suns job must've aged him 10-15 years in those four-five months as coach.

 

Who is this former Trail Blazer?

 

Erick Barkley....

Left St. Johns after his Freshman year and that was a big mistake.

 

Sidney Wicks was a very strange story in the NBA. He scored 24.5 points per game in his rookie year, and then his scoring average declined every year after that until he retired.

Here's a great article on Wicks that gives a hint of why he never achieved greatness:

Here's an easy one:

 

Lance Armstrong?

 

Rodolfo's post = Danny Young

 

Is that Erick "I'm not Charles" Barkley?

 

This is the shortest Wikipedia on a sport athlete that I have ever seen. Poor Erick Barkley. He should have finished his years in college to get a better encyclopedia listing.

At least Qyntel Woods has a profile even though his ppg was horrible in his stint here in Portland.

"Tell me what I won Michael....A trivia contest"

Michael Holton

I want a picture of Richard Anderson as a Blazer. I've looked before and he seems almost as elusive as the Loch Ness Monster. Or maybe Peter Verhooven. Anyone else have the full wall size poster that came in sections from Burgerville. Took me all year to get the complete poster, only to be scared nightly as I slept by Peter Verhooven standing next to Petr Gudmoondson. Easily the ugliest duo of big men to ever play in the same frontcourt. That would have been circa 82' if I remember right.
