    During the course of my Moncrief HOF Research project I felt this needed a separate thread to document this phenomenon. I mean not only did they have all these guys but most of them (w/the exception of gminski who was too old by then ) were regulars.

    Larry Krystowiak
    Randy Breuer
    Paul Mokeski
    Jack Sikma
    Brad Lohaus
    Fred Roberts
    Danny Schayes
    Frank Brickowski
    Mike Gminski

    I'm sure there are others. please help.

    EDIT 1:
    Steve Mix
    Frank Kornet
    and one of my alltime favorite NBA players - a genuine O.G.G - Alan Ogg.

    Oh come on, Sikma was not a stiff. White as a fridge, but not a stiff.

    He was a stiff by the time he got to the Bucks, but anyway I edited my title to allow for enhanced flexibility.

    great list fisher,
    the bucks are a great organization and have a great history. i'm glad at least a couple of us here care about NBA history and legacy.

    I've been waiting, SERIOUSLY, for this team with the group of players mentioned to get their proper recognition ;)

    No additions to that list to add...Ricky Pierce though, had to have averaged 79% shooting against the Rockets in that era

    Well, that must set a record for most guys with the letters "ski" in their name.

    Wow Jon Koncak... there's a name from the past. I was wondering what the hell that guy was up to now so I wikipedia'ed him and found this interesting tidbit

    Koncak is perhaps best remembered for the six-year, US$ 13 million contract he received from the Hawks in 1989 - an unprecedented total for a reserve. The deal was roundly criticized since it paid Koncak more than Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson and Larry Bird. His large contract prevented the Hawks from taking part in any other major free agent signings for several years. As a result, he earned the derisive nickname "Jon Contract"

    Lmao @ Jon Contract.

    Sad thing is ... a little over $2 million a year is pretty much the going rate for tall scrubs in this league now. :p

    I used to love the bucks team, starting with terry cummings who was mentioned in another thread. in that thread I mentioned I was going to start a thread on underrated eighties' stars and it would have started with cummings.

    On a side note, how did that team never manage to get Billy Paultz on it? Seems out of character for them NOT to have had him too.. ;)
