Who am I:

I went to Arizona St. I played for Portland, Denver and Dallas(last season in 94)  I did average close to 19ppg for a 4 year stretch at the end of the 80's.  My name may make little children chuckle.

Other stats:
86-87 NBA all 2nd team
87-88 all NBA 2nd defensive team
2-time all-star

Fat Lever?
That makes sense but did Lever play for Dallas??
Just looked him up. I'm amazed. I would have bet a ton on the fact he finished in Denver. Probably because Dallas was so horrible at the time.

Edited my answer to include his name change. I remember reading an article about his Turrette's and it's the only reason I remembered him.

This one is actually baseball so I hope you guys dont mind but I kinda wanted to throw it out there.  

I am blessed with an arm like a rocket, and the mind of a scientist.  I have a catch phrase.  Some people say Im a woman hater, but thats not true, I love all women.  Some people say that my pitching mechanics are worse than Barack Obama.  "I’m the man with the ball. I’m the man who can throw it faster than ___. So that is why I’m better than everyone else in the world.
CB Draft LA Lakers: Lamarcus Aldridge, Carmelo Anthony,Jrue Holiday, Wes Matthews  6.11, 7.16, 8.14, 8.15, 9.16, 11.5, 11.16

Name all the Celtics or former Celtics to win the NBA Finals MVP Award.

I guess I'll start this off, though there's no way I'll get em all:

Paul Pierce
Larry Bird
Cedric Maxwell
Chauncey Billups
John Havlicek

Ironically the first person to get what's now called the Bill Russell award was Jerry West for excellence in losing to Russell in 1969.
