I liked TB, but he was kind of a letdown for the Wolves after Marbury. Didn't have a killer instinct or a clutch factor to balance out with KG. He's appreciated though.

****in' Starbury.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Wanted him to succeed so much

Minnesota did KG so wrong. This was their only first round pick in 5 years after the Joe Smith scandal. Arizona was landing so many names back then

 

[651akathepaul]

Yeah it was bad...

I'm reminded of Malik Sealy now, which is a perfect mention for this thread. He's remembered more for his passing away now I think, but he was a solid player for a few teams and was really at home with 'Sota.

I only know who Mike Iuzzoulino is because he was in the arcade version of NBA Jam.

When you play NBA Jam for the first time, him and Derek Harper are the first players you play against.

I have memories of the NBA Jam announcer yelling "IUZZOLINO" numerous times.

What ever happened to him? Last I remember, he was trying to get attention out of Bill Simmons not knowing the difference between dreads & corn rows.

Dude was convinced he was going to make it as a hooper.

John Crotty. Whenever he made a three, it was called a "Crotty Chop".

Love that uni.

For some reason I really enjoyed watching Tyrone Hill play back in the day. The quintessential 'do the dirty work' player

Do u think he was better than Olden polyneice (sp?)

The Heat should be required to only wear Vice Nights and jerseys from the first ten years from now on. Who would complain? So many sales. Throw in the Floridian as well. That's fine.

 

[IslandBornRedNose]

love Rod Strickland's game...

Those Nick Van Exel vs Kenny Anderson matchups when he was in Portland were classic.

Has there been a bigger flash in the pan than Landry Fields?

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Also, this is a good YouTube page for vintage clips. You can turn on AutoPlay and just let his videos go!

Watch "Ryan Van Dusen" on YouTube

Flash in the pan? He was done before he got in the league...
