    Little known fact: The Houston beatdown of the Robinson family continued into 1996. I was stationed at Keesler Air Force Base (Biloxi, Mississippi)for weather observer school from April - Sept. '96. I went to one of the gyms on base one morning and see a 6'6"(or so) man running full court with Spurs Robinson jersey and shorts on. The guy looks just like The Admiral. I ask someone and they say its his brother. I got next. Since im 6'4", and the tallest on my team, i get to guard Lil Robinson when we get on the court. I tell my teammates "this is my court". I proceed to score 4 points in a game to 12. In my eyes this is equivalent to scoring 33.3 points in a 100 point NBA game. We win. I hear Lil Admiral tell the next team that "this is gonna sound crazy but i thought I played good defense. My opponent shot 50% but he snowbirded the whole game." Game recognizes game.

    Throwback Friday- that time that MDoggNic and The Dream dominated the Robinson family over a 3 year period.

    My fault. I completely forgot that posts like these were forbidden from Clutchfans. Mods, please place in the "Less Than Serious" thread.

    If only mcdoggnic was on the team that year. We would've won at least another championship completing the three-peat.

    Reminds me of the one time I played ball with Steph Curry when I was in Cali for summer break. Dude couldn't miss. I got a couple assists in too.

    I didnt realize there was a specific place i had to put this thread. Thanks for the kind words of encouragement. Perhaps next time you can just move on to another thread instead of taking advantage of the anonymity that comes with the internet.
