Hay, guys.
In NBA history, 63 players scored 18000+ points. Ten are still active, and of these 53 retired only 3 scored 20+ points in last 3 regular games of respective careers.
Can annyone name all 3?

Kareem, Wilt, and Bernard King?

Just checked myself, it's none of those guys, although King did score 20 on his second to last game.

At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

I'll guess Jordan, Hakeem, and Reggie Miller? Are any of those right?

Not Hakeem, who retired in 2002 (holy crap I always forget he was in the league for so long).

Not Reggie.

Not Jordan, who scored 17,21, and 15 in his last three games.

The late Bill Sharman?  And I vaguely remember Dr. J closing on a hot streak.

Sharman no, but Julius Erving is our second legend.

So TP for foulweaterfan.
Just one player left.
