Friday Question - players in NBA finals

Player to have represented the most number of different teams in the NBA finals. Not just the play-offs, the actual finals.

I'm not sure my self but it may just be Shaq with 3.
Magic, Lakers and Heat.

Rodman, 2- Pistons and Bulls
Cassell, 2- Rockets and Celts
Horry, 2- Rockets and Spurs
Drexler, 2- Blazers and Rockets
Payton, 2- Sonics and Heat
The Chief, 2- Celts and Bulls
Horace, Magic and Bulls
Kerr? Bulls and Spurs(?)

There has to be more...

HAHAHA. We are forgetting about the only Kiwi in the league-Sean Marks. He didnt play, but has been on the roster for 3 NBA Teams who have made Finals.
He was part of Miami,San Antonio and Phoenix who all made the finals.

Also, Marks is on the Hornets now, and they look destined to make the playoffs, so it will be the 4th time he has made the playoffs with 4 different teams.
Miami,Phoenix,San Antonio and New Orleans

Thinking of guys who have been on 3 different Finals teams is hard. 2 is much easier:

Earl Cureton, James Posey, Elden Campbell, Rodney McCray, James Edwards, Gerald Henderson, Danny Ainge.

Do you mean NBA Finals as in the Grand Final series or the Conference Championship Finals. If you mean both, then thedoctor, I'm pretty sure Marks was in the Suns team that played the Spurs for the Western Conference Champs. Correct me if im wrong. I think I am.

So nobody reached the magical 4 finals mark?

I still think that Shaq is impressive because he was the franchise guy for all 3 of the teams he represented.
