    Vladimir played with Kobe in LA

    Kobe with Artest in LA

    Artest with Scola here



    Honestly given how often our players move, I don't think any player is difficult in the league.


    Othella Harrington to a current Rockets player. I know he is no longer in the league but I can't think of anybody else who is difficult (if that is difficult).

    I could not trace this one back. I don't even know who Ed Sadowski is. While researching the connections I found this search engine created at Havard lol.

    https://www.hcs.harvard.edu/pallas/

    Ed Sadowski 1947-48 Boston Celtics Connie Simmons
    Connie Simmons 1949-50 New York Knickerbockers Carl Braun
    Carl Braun 1961-62 Boston Celtics Tom Sanders
    Tom Sanders 1972-73 Boston Celtics Paul Westphal
    Paul Westphal 1982-83 New York Knickerbockers Scott Hastings
    Scott Hastings 1991-92 Denver Nuggets Dikembe Mutombo
    Dikembe Mutombo 2008-09 Houston Rockets Kyle Lowry

    I guess I just ruined it for everyone. Sorry. It is still a cool tool though.

    I couldn't in my right mind cheat like that.
