Has Phil Smyth been given a recruiting job with the Mavs???
A joke about the age of the 36ers players. Why didn´t anyone else think of that?

I would love to see John Salley back on court... I still remember his moves in the basketball movie with Whoopi Goldberg. What a great front court for 10 days willis to salley for the lay-up

How old was Robert Parish when he retired? Does Willis beat his record?
Older than Parish? Yes (he was 43). Oldest in NBA? No.
Nat Hickey holds the distinction of being the oldest player ever to play in a game, lacing up his basketball shoes at age 46 for the Providence Steamrollers during the 1947-48 season.

Unbelievable. Got tipped off about this about a week ago. He hasn't played for a few years and yet, he's the best option for a championship-calibre team.

I think Parrish may be the oldest to win a ring. I think he won one with Chicago in his last season. Go the Cheif!!
