Damn, that was impressive. And that was pretty quick too. I guess they need to be made harder next time. Somebody else needs to come up with some scenarios. But make sure they are very difficult. ------------------
i'll try to come up with some and post 'em tomorrow. maybe going old school will throw some people off ------------------
Good brain teasers! Not too easy, not too hard ... well, except for Gill, which was the only one I missed. ------------------
For me, the 11 steals was a dead give away that it had to be Gill. I might not have known otherwise ------------------
I was visiting my godmother in New York at the time and actually went to the game. Man Kendall is QUICK! He was all over the place. Miami did make some sloppy passes around him though. ------------------ WooHoo! The season's here!....I'm still gonna need that keg of Pepto-Bismol.
Yeah, Gill is a good defender. Think how lucky it is that the Lakers didn't get him. ------------------
