WE HAVE TO STOP MAKING THESE TYPES OF THREADS. EVERYTIME A TOPIC LIKE THIS STARTS EVERY KID WHO KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT BASKETBALL POSTS 68 OF THE MOST RANDOMBASKETBALL PLAYERS OR VETS THAT JUST RETIRED. STOP IT.
LOOK WHAT I CAN DO:
RANDOM TALL WHITE GUY: Gheorghe Muresean
RANDOM COLLEGE STAR WHITE GUY: Gerry McNamera (Seriously some kid called him Jake, go do some research. HE NEVER PLAYED IN THE NBA, HELL HE GOT CUT BY AD-LEAGUE TEAM)
NIKETALK PRODIGY: Dajuan Wagner (Dude had coalitis sp?. Seriously try playing in the nba without a colon. This isn't a New Jersey ProAm SummerLeague)
RANDOM 15th MAN ON AWFUL TEAM: Vincent Yarbrough (Kobe. Kobe. Kobe. He doesn't deserve to be mentioned in any NBA thread. Regardless of topic.)
RANDOM EURO TRASH: Pavel Podkolzin (Seriously. TURRRIBLE)
RANDOM "THE THIS GUY WAS A 3RD OPTION ON HIS COLLEGE TEAM BUT I LIKED HIM WHEN I WAS 6" PLAYER: Laron Profit
THESE THREADS ARE PAINFUL TO READ. THE AMOUNT OF RANDOM 5'10" WHITE PG LISTED IN THIS THREAD ALONE MAKES ME CRINGE. AND IM A WHITE GUY WHORESPECTED THESE PLAYERS. NOBODY NEEDS TO KNOW WHERE MIKE PENBEARTHY IS RIGHT NOW. STOP IT. ANYONE CAN LIST RANDOM NAMES. Ronny Fields. Ronny Fields. RonnyFields.
THIS IS MY 1ST AND ONLY RANT ON NIKETALK.
Sincerely,
a basketball fan concerned about the future (or lack thereof) of niketalk's sports forum.

Dude Chill Out it's not THAT serious. I'm the "KID" who called McNamera Jake (I Happen to be a 26 year old Grown man BTW) I didn't knowyou weren't allowed to make mistakes on NT. When I think of people that just vanished I'm not thinkin about whether they had a long career or not buteveryone i'm thinking about just kinda faded away into the sunset.

I think the purpose is to list players where other posters can be like "Damn, what happened to dude?"
I don't see an issue except with the guys who retired in their mid to later 30's or the guys who had major injuries/accidents.
Bad Examples
Jay Williams didn't fade away - he had a well known motorcyle accident
Stacey Augmon didn't fade away - he was just old and retired
Good Example
Richard Dumas, Harold Miner, Ed O'Bannon

He played for the Clippers a good portion of last season and, at least IMO, did pretty well. I was surprised they didn't bring him back tocamp this year.Originally Posted by iNiNe5

How was Francis a bust? He had a great career, altho it ended a little shorter than expected, most people don't last more than 3 years in the league.
