Photo Trivia

[Solid D]

Here's a new thread called Photo Trivia. Post a pic, then name all people/players in it.

Let's start with this one. It's a seldom-seen photo. You don't have to be an old-timer to get two of these guys...but who's the third one? (You don't have to name partial people or appendages unless you are really gifted)

[Solid D]

Can you name at least 3?

[ace3g]

http://www.bermansports.com/images/500-gervin12.jpg

George Gervin, Phil Jackson

[ace3g]

http://www.bermansports.com/images/500-thompson01a.jpg

Julius Erving

[Solid D]

http://www.bermansports.com/images/500-thompson01a.jpg

Julius Erving

Erving is #32, correct

others?

[Solid D]

http://www.bermansports.com/images/500-gervin12.jpg

George Gervin, Phil Jackson

Correct. #53 anyone?

[ace3g]

http://www.bermansports.com/images/500-thompson01a.jpg

I am going to take a guess here and say that the guy with the basketball is A.C. Green, that was my first thought

[baseline bum]

Mark Olberding

[ace3g]

actually number 33 is David "skywalker" Thompson

[ace3g]

#20 in the same picture is Roger Brown

[polandprzem]

http://www.bermansports.com/images/500-thompson01a.jpg

Who is ready to substitute
???

[Solid D]

Mark Olberding

Correct.
#53 in the Spurs uniform in the first photo posted.

[Solid D]

actually number 33 is David "skywalker" Thompson

Absolutely right! The cat in photo #2 doing the splits and cradling the ball is David Thompson of the Denver Nuggets.

[Solid D]

#20 in the same picture is Roger Brown

In photo #2, No, not Roger Brown. (Roger was black, not white. Side note: Roger died of cancer a few years ago)

Hint, the #20 in the Blue Nuggets uniform, is actually #24 but it's difficult to see his number.

Who is ready to substitute
???

Good one! He's really too far away to tell for sure, but I'd say it's one of 2 players, either Dan Issel or Byron Beck. (Hair is kind of dark for Dan, though)

[Solid D]

Photo #3

Since this is more recent, don't look it up!

Bobby Jones, I think.

Photo #3

http://espn-i.starwave.com/media/apphoto/LAS10902160736.jpg

Josh Childress, Joe Johnson, Marvin Williams, Coach Mike Woodson, and Tony Delk's head. The tall guy in the background is either John Edwards, Zaza or perhaps Batista.

:smokin

[Solid D]

Bobby Jones, I think.

Good call, FWD! The guy in photo #2 turning to run upcourt is Jones, (left of Dr. J)

[Solid D]

Josh Childress, Joe Johnson, Marvin Williams, Coach Mike Woodson, and Tony Delk's head. The tall guy in the background is either John Edwards, Zaza or perhaps Batista.

:smokin

timvp steps up and comes strong. Yeah, that does look like Delk's head.

That may be Batista behind Josh Childress.

http://www.bermansports.com/images/500-thompson01a.jpg

polandprzem, I've looked at the guy on his knee in photo #2 (waiting to substitute) some more and I'm pretty sure that's Byron Beck.

Augmon Hughes, Baron and I do not know but he looks like Fortson hehe

[timvp]

Nicely done. I'm pretty sure you went 4-4.

[Solid D]

http://nbahoopsonline.com/Pics/players/mcadoo.jpg

Yes! Bob McAdoo wearing #11 playing for the Buffalo Braves before they moved to L.A. in photo #5...but you should have gotten the guy behind him with the bald head!!!


on #7 - Oakley, McGrady, Potapenko(?) Lang (???) Brevin Knight(?)

polandprzem is correct on Oakley (34), McGrady (1), and Brevin Knight far right. You are incorrect on Potapenko and Lang. You also forgot to name number 30 for Cleveland.

[polandprzem]

Andrew DeClercq , Mark Bryant with 2, and Lemond Murray. (but I've checked the Cleveland's roster)

And Photo #6 is it Isiah Rider?

[Solid D]

Correct on DeClercq (55), Marcus Bryant :) (2) and Murray (30). You also forgot one in that pic.

No, on #6.

[polandprzem]

No, on #6. :damn

It was interesting cause I was thinking Potapenko with such a muscles? wtf?

And It's realy a shame I didn't recognized Murray at first. Also Mark Bryant wasn't so difficult.

No wonder he never had a serious playing career, he's shooting away from the basket...

[Mr. Burns]

Wow, great find, CubanMustGo!!! Pop has a certain glow about him and he's not even pregnant! :lol

Master Popovich knows, as do I, that you must stay out of the sun to retain a healthy pale glow ...
