Nice hit. For some reason, I was only thinking of pg's that could've gotten cut.

I had an extremely awkward free throw release and wore 30 for the Celtics in the 90's.

I wanted to say Mark Blount but he didn't play for us until like 2000 I think. I can't remember any 30's during the 90's.

Man I wish I could answer this without looking it up. Growing up in the 90's though with no league pass and the Celtics stinking up the joint...hard to catch them on TV

I have a feeling it's going to be somebody I've never heard of, so I don't feel so bad that I don't know it.

I'm a retired player and unpredictable player, known in America for my funny name and decent performances on lousy teams. In Europe I'm a 5 time champion in various leagues, an Olympic silver medalist, and now a team president for the first pro club I played for. I once left a pro team because I beat up the president's son.

  • Yup
In 1998 the Celtics traded a player and 2 2nd rounders to the Knicks for 4 players - 1 of which I'm petty certain never played for the C's.

Who is the player the Celts traded?
Who are the 4 players they got in return?
Yup
