| Very tough. I'm an NBA junkie and I still struggled. I think even if you're an expert you'll still do poorly, since many of these guys are either not famous enough for people to know their real names (eg CJ Miles, Medvedenko, Mardy Collins), or they're famous but their nicknames have become entrenched as all you think of them as (eg. Connie Hawkins, Jo Jo White, Mookie Blaylock, etc).
That, plus a two initial name is just so much easier. How memorable (vs their counterparts) are names like Earl Smith, Jon Redick, or Michael Carr? |
