What happened to Artis Gilmore???
Good point, BadNewsRef. Also, Mark Olberding, Billy Paultz...
I've had the pleasure of running across Dietrich and Moore, so their omission was more obvious to me. Johnny Moore is always coaching an AAU team and both he and Coby are well-mannered, well-tempered [i.e. no 'roids in their past] classy individuals.
Of course, the Admiral is seriously a gentleman - his son had to put up with my family's first year of officiating [6th grade league] and Robinson was just so into focusing the kids on the game that it meant a lot to us. Having a legend on the sidelines who would have torn you down would have been a bit of a difficult thing to overcome during my first year [even now, I think - I'm still working on getting through a camp without becoming too distracted by what I need to work on].
