I was going to mention the Whopper, Billy Paultz. Olberding was the other name I couldn't think of. I remember all those players b/c back in the mid-70's through early 80's were the years I really followed the NBA as a teen-ager. I was originally a Bucks fan as a little kid but then Milwaukee traded Jabbar the same year Philly picked up George McGinnis and I became a die-hard Sixer fan. I remember the Spurs' battles with the Bullets and Sixers when SA was in the Eastern Conference. I still remember the day David Thompson up 78 and Iceman responded by scoring 63 to win the scoring title.

Ref'd an AAU game once with Buck Williams coaching. He wasn't a problem at all but when he had a question he easily got your attention. There's no igonoring his presense on the sideline.

Those Johnny Moore Spurs teams, though, used to get waxed by Magic and the Lakers.
