Reggie Miller must be there.

MJ played a lot of minutes even with his hiatus.  I'd say he makes it.

Pippen is probbaly there as well.

I was just going to say Miller.

How about Uncle Cliffy and Gary Payton?

I'm not even going to try 10. I'm just throwing out some guesses. I'm guessing that it's mostly older players, kind of like how old pitchers used to go 30-15 with 20 complete games.

Kareem Abdul Jabar
karl malone
Russell?
Chamberlain?
Oscar Robertson

btw, i started this post when no one else had posted, then got distracted. sorry it looks so lame now.

Why not.

Let's try Jordan and Moses Malone and the Dream; They all played pretty long careers.

I'm pretty sure Russell's on there, though he'd have to be near the bottom of the 20.



3 more good ones

1. Kareem Abdul-jabbar (H)57446
2. Karl Malone 54852
5. John Stockton   47765
8. John Havlicek (H)   46471
9. Robert Parish (H)   45712
10. Moses Malone (H)  45071
16. Michael Jordan  41012
17. Bill Russell (H) 40726

No Wilt?  I'm surprised, I thought he played almost 48 minutes per game.

Sorry, that one snuck by me between posts.  Wilt's #4

Someone guessed Drexler, and he is not on the list

1. Kareem Abdul-jabbar (H)57446
2. Karl Malone 54852
4. Wilt Chamberlain (H) 47859
5. John Stockton   47765
6. Reggie Miller   47622 
7. Gary Payton  47123
8. John Havlicek (H)   46471
9. Robert Parish (H)   45712
10. Moses Malone (H)  45071
13. Clifford R. Robinson  42555
15. Scottie Pippen   41069
16. Michael Jordan  41012
17. Bill Russell (H) 40726

I just cheated and looked because I'm going to bed and I was curious.  Number 3 is a doozy, I'll definitely a TP to the first to guess that one.
"Take this down," said O'Neal. "My name is Shaquille O'Neal and Paul Pierce is the (expletive) truth. Quote me on that and don't take nothing out. I knew he could play, but I didn't know he could play like this. Paul Pierce is the truth."

He didn't play in the NBA long enough.

Sam Jones maybe if Russell is there.

Elvin Hayes?

Nope to all.  Mikan might fall prey to teh stats not going back that far though.  Cowens had too many injuries and Gervin had the whole ABA thing.

Dr. J's a no too.
Yup
