Big White Guys

[noogie_da_sheep]

How could I forget about Jon Koncak (?!)...great player for Atlanta and one season in Orlando...how was this guy not picked higher

Pick #5 1985 draft...3,520 memorable points

Not a comment on his playing achievements, but Madsen's an absolute nut. At least he was in his days at Stanford.

He'd definitely qualify as the token "goofy white guy", with emphasis on the word goofy.

alright.. back to currently playing big white stiffs...

how about cherokee parks...

with his 7th team now (warriors)

 

[noogie_da_sheep]

he actually plays ball? i thought he was a walking billboard promoting tatoos

Big Country was never 'active' in the sense that 'active' indicates movement.

No one has mentioned Chris Dudley?

One of my old favs - the superbly named Alan Ogg.

Oh, damn, I can't believe I forgot him. when he was in San Antone he didn't do a damn thing right. He stinks.

Now, Will Purdue. He's a player.

Wasn't he the guy ejected in the Finals a few years ago, after Rodman got inside his head?

 

[Fall Out Boy]

Blair Rasmussen
Vitaly Potapenko
Bill Wennington

All had decent patches, but disappointed overall.

Wennington was far from a stiff, a handy backup big man who could score.

You got to love his free throws. The only bloke who had more air balls than points from the free throw line

I can name them... None.

The only "Big White Guy" Boston had in the early years was Bill Russell and he was Black.

The Lakers had George Mikan, the original "Shaq" and the Hawks had Bob Petit, the Original "Mailman".
