Wonder whatever happened to ol Brick. A true blue collar workhorse in the day when you could shove and punch under the basket.

NBA career
Brickowski signed with the Seattle SuperSonics (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Seattle_SuperSonics) for the 1984-85 (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/1984%E2%80%9385_NBA_season) on September 23, 1984, arriving in the league three years after being drafted.[1] (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/#cite_note-CelticNation-0) After two decent seasons, he signed on with the Los Angeles Lakers (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Los_Angeles_Lakers), but only played part of one season before being traded to the San Antonio Spurs (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/San_Antonio_Spurs), along with Petur Gudmundsson (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Petur_Gudmundsson), two draft choices and cash, for Mychal Thompson (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Mychal_Thompson).[3] (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/#cite_note-2) Although Brickowski only played 7 games the rest of that season, he played 3 more productive seasons for San Antonio, including scoring a career-high 16 points per game during the 1987-88 season (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/1987-88_NBA_season).
During the 1990 off-season, the salary cap went up, which led to Brickowski being traded to the Milwaukee Bucks (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Milwaukee_Bucks) for Paul Pressey (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Paul_Pressey), which the Bucks agreed to due to an injury to Larry Krystkowiak (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Larry_Krystkowiak).[4] (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/#cite_note-3) He was a productive player during his time in Milwaukee, but not without trouble: during 1991-92 (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/1991-92_NBA_season), Brickowski was found with an ounce of marijuana at his Montana ranch. He pleaded guilty,[5] (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/#cite_note-4) and was forced to pay a $2,000 fine and undergo drug counseling.[6] (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/#cite_note-5) At the 1994 trading deadline, The Bucks traded Brickowski to the Charlotte Hornets (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/New_Orleans_Hornets) with a first-round draft pick for Mike Gminski (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Mike_Gminski).[7] (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/#cite_note-6) After spending the rest of the season with Charlotte, Brickowski joined the Sacramento Kings (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Sacramento_Kings).[8] (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/#cite_note-7) However, he injured his shoulder during preseason, aggravating the injury in a practice in January, and ended up being lost for the entire season (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/1994%E2%80%9395_NBA_season).[9] (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/#cite_note-8)
Although he had a second year on his contract with the Kings, Brickowski signed on for a second stint with Seattle, in which he became a surprising contributor in terms of three-pointers (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Three-point_field_goal), hitting 32 of 79 (.405). He helped Seattle make it to the 1996 NBA Finals (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/1996_NBA_Finals) against Chicago Bulls (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Chicago_Bulls). During that series, Brickowski became notorious in his very physical defense against Dennis Rodman (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Dennis_Rodman) that led to several technical and flagrant fouls. After a season with Seattle, he signed as a free agent with the Boston Celtics (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Boston_Celtics) on August 1, 1996.[1] (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/#cite_note-CelticNation-0) After only 17 games, he was released on July 7, 1997,[1] (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/#cite_note-CelticNation-0) and retired, holding career averages of 10 points, 5 rebounds (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Rebound_(basketball)) and two assists (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/Assist_(basketball)) per game, in 731 contests.
One year after he retired in 1997 (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/1996%E2%80%9397_NBA_season), Brickowski joined a team of retired NBA players on a tour of China (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/China) for a series of exhibition games against the Chinese national team (http://www.spurstalk.com/wiki/China_national_basketball_team).[10] (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/#cite_note-9)

Rather antoinne Carr

He was a better player..

[SenorSpur]

I always liked the Brick Man. He and Peter Gudmundson formed, what I used to call, the all-male porn star frontline, for the Spurs.
