Me and a few buddies were playing this the other night. We named recently retired NBA players who have been completely forgotten about since leaving the league. A lot of "Oh *****! I remember him!" moments were had. I'll start by naming a few.

Dan Dickau
Ira Newble
Jake Tsakalidis


Who else?

I think two big name players that are kind of forgotten (as far as not being mentioned often)

John Stockton and Tim Hardaway.

12:20 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 26. The Big Debut.

Media Day. Barkley, Olajuwon and Pippen are asked to pose for photographs for this magazine, and the photographer is trying to set the scene. "Okay, we're welcoming Scottie to Houston," he says. "Man," says Barkley, "that $67 million didn't welcome him enough?"

I don't think Kirk Snyder was forgotten. Isn't he in prison for brutally assaulting his next-door neighbor?

[edit] oh, I just saw he was actually released from jail and is now playing professionally in Canada.
