I can't help but caption this pic.

Pippen: "Yeah, these belong to me now, Brooks."

Anyone know how the hell to post pics on the board, I've never figured this out.

You can't use quick reply, but if you use post reply, there is a IMG option. Press it once, then enter the website of the picture, then press the IMG button again. Getty images don't seem to work using the IMG option.

lol, I attended the Greg Kite Basketball Camp held at Florida Air Academy in Melbourne in 1992. Might explain why I'm sitting behind a desk now and not lighting up the NBA!

I started busting out laughing at this pic... All I can think of is Otis trying to block Kites shot and mumbling to himeself.... "Nooooo Kite thats the wrong basket!"

Hey! Anthony Bowie is not obscure! I'm a basketball coach at his camp at the JCC. He's a really good guy and great with the kids.

And now for yourrrr obscure superstars who came to the Magic way past their prime starting five!

at point guard, one of the best free throw shooters of all time... Mark Price!

(I used this picture for dramatic effect to show how old he is)

at two guard, the brother of Dominique Wilkins... Gerald Wilkins!

at the one forward, Dominique Wilkins himself but without the hops or the shooting ability!

At power forward, he fathered over 20 kids... Shawn Kemp!

And at center, now your big men coach, but former Magic player... Patrick Ewwwwwiiing

Quite a starting five by the names on paper, too bad they sucked when they got here.

I was and still am a HUGE Don Reid fan. Hustled harder than anyone on the floor and didn't take crap from anybody. When i was deciding on schools, and I found out he went to Georgetown, I knew it was meant to be.... hats off to you, Don Reid -- my fellow Hoya. :bowdown:
