Kareem, West, and Dominique are all incorrect for the consecutive 2000+ pt seasons.  Kareem maxed out at 5 straight, West at 3, and Nique is tied for 3rd with Jordan and at least one other guy with 7.  

As a small hint, the 2nd place guy has 8 straight.

  • I left Indiana. Because it was horrible.
RE: Danny Manning

Yes he was. You're welcome for the water cooler fact. It works great as a pickup line too (to John Hollinger)!


TP

Are you sure about that?  I just checked wikipedia and they don't have him listed.

AHHHH Crap! I confused trivia questions...earlier, Pervis Ellison. He won MIP. More TP's as penance.

To be fair, Ellison and Manning are pretty much the same disappointing player from the midwest.
CB Draft Bucks: Chris Paul, Dwight Howard, Tobias Harris, Zach LaVine, Aaron Afflalo, Jeff Green, Donatas Motiejunas, Jarrett Jack, Frank Kaminsky, Lance Stephenson, JaVale McGee, Shane Larkin, Nick Young

DKC Bucks. Also terrible.

Kwame Brown.

Close - Kwame is tied for the lead in most 2000+ nap seasons with Mark Blount.

Which player scored the most points in an NBA game as a rookie?

I looked it up so I won't guess but the answer to the consecutive 2000 pts seasons is interesting.

Nope - another guy tied for 3rd with 7 straight.  Didn't know he was that high up, but he's not 2nd.

A more medium-sized hint: the guy entered the league after Big 0 but before Karl Malone.

James Worthy?

Figured he must have benefitted from playing with Magic all those years.

Just looked it up.  Not a name that jumps to the top of your head when you think of prolific scorers by any means.  The owner of one of the best throwback jerseys in the game, though.

Alex English? Old Denver Nuggets throwbacks?

EDIT: I'm hijacking. Sorry ;D

Nope, James never broke 2k.

Boom Baby!  Pretty obscure, I remember reading about him doing it in my old Basketball Digest subscription.  Doug Moe could get his boys some numbers, that's for sure.

Is it sad that the only chance I had at that was when someone indicated the throwback jersey? I'm pathetic haha but those skyline jerseys were fairly memorable.

Name a player who has twice led the league in total rebounds in a season, but never in rebounds per game.
