9

and i learned that Clifford Robinson is 34th on the all-time career scoring list, ahead of Allen Iverson?

how is that possible? a benchwarmer has scored more points than a guy who averages like 30 a game.

[trueD]

Damn I'm not saying, but I learned some things.

[trueD]

I was just SURE there were only two timeouts allowed in a five minute O.T., damn.

Yeah, but it said combined so 2+2=4

:lol i know maybe i have been watching grant napier screw it up all the time.

[THE SIXTH MAN]

I got 9, WTF? I was surprised at some of the answers that I got wrong.

[J.T.]

18. Googled a couple of them, NBA.com'd some others. That's not cheating is it.

[jacobdrj]

No googleing... 12

I take some issue with the ABA question... I was thinking that the Pacers won the last ABA title in 76, so it was the 77 season that they were merged... oh well...

still not too shabby...

[FromWayDowntown]

Got 14 without extra help.

It's because Clifford Robinson played NBA games in the '80's and is still playing NBA games in 2006. Also, back in the day, Clifford Robinson wasn't really a bench warmer.

See below for your score, as well as how the rest of SportsNation fared.

Only one that I had trouble with was the hall of fame one but then remembered about MJ.

Good questions, though.

[Extra Stout]

12.

[Brutalis]

14. had missed the aba one i thought i surely got right.

You cheated and missed 2?

I got 15, but should have gotten 16. I should have gotten the timeouts question, I knew that one but picked an answer w/o reading all the others. I also very easily could have gotten the reg season win total increase, I knew it had to be between the Clipps and the Hornets, but I chose unwisely.

[JamStone]

10/20
19/20 on my second try :lol

[baseline bum]

20/20

I guessed on the number of players in the top 50, and I wasn't sure on the English / Bird thing, but I remembered how crazy those Nuggets teams were back in the day, scoring 150 like it was noithing.

[MaNuMaNiAc]

6 right... :( oh well

[Spurminator]

I got 11 but a couple of them probably shouldn't count because they were lucky guesses.

Although I bet I could have gotten the HOF question if I wasn't braindead today.

[JMarkJohns]

15 of 20... guessed correctly (semi-educated) on 12 and 18 and, rather embarrassingly, missed #3, 14 and 17 along with 1 and 10.

I rushed through, and had I been more careful, probably could have got 3, 14 and 17 correct.

I never would have guessed that Duncan wasn't in the top-50 yet. I knew the four, but figured Duncan was, so I guessed six (rather than four), figuring maybe Pierce or Garnett snuck in... That upset me, but not near as much as forgetting that Jordan wasn't even eligable for the Hall yet... or that Okafor, not Gordon, won the ROY in 2004.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

I got 9. Meh.

[THE SIXTH MAN]

or that Okafor, not Gordon, won the ROY in 2004.
I almost got thrown off by this question also. I knew Ben Gordon won an award, but I couldn't remember when. But then it came to me that he won the sixth man award not the ROY.

[Burn531]

I got 10 correct.

[resistanze]

Meh, 14.

"You answered 8 questions correctly out of a possible 20 questions."

As lame as that number is I learned a few things. You fuckers that "cheated" have no balls. Go straight to the kitchen (or more likely your Mom & Dad's kitchen) and find the largest knife and run straight into it. Don't leave a suicide note...it's more likely that no one really cares.
