	You do know that the "Lakers guy" is one of the best basketball players of all time and is actually the man in the NBA logo right? Plus half of the people on your list played on other teams for a chunk of their careers.

	Klingsta:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 18:32 GMT	-1 points
	Great Quiz. Gotta love how many active guys are on it. and how many no names..

	Tim_Allen:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 18:38 GMT	31 points
	Oklahoma City is not correct. As part of the deal for the Thunder to move from Seattle, all the Sonics' records and history stayed in Seattle. The answer for Oklahoma City should be Kevin Durant. Payton could be a good bonus answer for the Seattle SuperSonics.

	darth_shrimper:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 18:50 GMT	2 points
	Very good quiz. And excellent point by TA as well. Quiz probably ought to be modified. But it's great otherwise! Only 21/30 so I'm back to the NBA classroom...

	@emh well true they never played in those cities but the new cities took over all the old cities records so they are the correct answers. Where Seattle kept all the Sonics records and stats and OKC started with a new record book.

	Not gonna aruge with Tim... but here is the source.. http://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/OKC/leaders_career.html If it needs to be modified I am all for it.. just not sure since this site puts them all together

	Sonicsgate:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 19:21 GMT	4 points
	As a Sonics fan I was pretty upset to see Payton's name for the OKC Hijackers record. While Kevin is correct, Payton has said himself that he doesn't want his jersey retired anywhere other than Seattle, and I'm sure he doesn't consider himself the OKC leading scorer. I agree with Tim that would be a better bonus answer.

	Thanks Sporcle for the new buttons on the stats page!

	Bob Remes:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 19:49 GMT	3 points
	Great quiz, I was surprised at how poorly I did. Never would have thought of Nick Anderson or Dell Curry. How about a little Buck Williams love?

	Kevin:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 20:01 GMT	-2 points
	Nobody said pretend the history didn't happen, but the history should have stayed the sole property of the city of Seattle. When the Grizzlies fail and cheap-ass Heisley sells the team, they'll move it to Seattle, call it the SuperSonics, hang Payton's jersey from the rafters, and forget that some team called the "Grizzlies" ever existed.

	willthelion:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 20:19 GMT	8 points
	sad that the only person i could think of from the memphis grizzlies was bryant "big country" reeves.

	darth_shrimper:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 20:19 GMT	2 points
	NK - the Browns are an expansion team, but they have all the records, awards, etc achieved by the 'old' Cleveland Browns.

	Nuclear_Knuckles:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 20:45 GMT	-2 points
	I realize that, which was my point. The old Browns are in Baltimore now. That history should belong to them. But the Ministry of Truth has told us the new Browns are the old Browns, so everyone just accepts it.

	brianc:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 21:23 GMT	-3 points
	26/30, only missed the truly obscure (sorry Buck Williams, Dell Curry, Randy Smith, Hal Greer). Only got the Suns leader scoring by trying to guess Baron Davis for the Hornets

	Kicking222:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 21:24 GMT	1 point
	Fun as all hell. I'm happy with 23.

	archman:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 21:32 GMT	-3 points
	How could I forget "The Iceman"? And Dell Curry's son may be breaking one of these records one of these days.

	Tim Allen:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 22:08 GMT	3 points
	@Kevin: Dell Curry's son might break some D-League records one of these days. Or some Euroleague records. =P

	Nuclear_Knuckles:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 22:15 GMT	11 points
	Hal Greer, that obscure 10-time All-Star, Hall of Famer...

	emh:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 22:47 GMT	1 point
	sammyhain2364: I acknowledged as much in my comment. At the very least, the quiz should be modified to list all the teams that were part of a franchise.

	laclasede2010:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 23:09 GMT	0 points
	@Tobin Williamson: going along on what john said, "lakers guy" is one of the greatest pure shooters in the history of the nba. you should be ashamed of yourself for calling the guy in the nba logo "lakers guy"

	lazeeeyes:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 23:54 GMT	3 points
	I don't understand why the NBA could've had OKC relinquish the history and records of the Seattle Sonic, just like what the NFL did with the Cleveland Browns/Baltimore Ravens fiasco. Now the Sonics records will be shared with not just the OKC Thunder, but any new team in Seattle (expansion or relocated). That is asinine and can be confusing to fans.

	gob126:	Feb 4th, 2009 at 00:52 GMT	11 points
	You guy getting onto him for calling the Lakers answer "the Lakers guy" are being dumb. He was trying to not spoil the answer. It's a common practice here on Sporcle. Everyone knows how good West is, get off your high horse.

	Kevin:	Feb 4th, 2009 at 01:11 GMT	0 points
	@crazedinnorcal - The shared history was part of the lease-breaking settlement between the organization and the city. The NBA had nothing to do with the decision (although they theoretically could have pressured Bennett into leaving it).

	ku_sucks:	Feb 4th, 2009 at 02:04 GMT	-1 points
	what is so bad about tobin not thinking of jerry west? why does he deserve negative ratings for that? what a joke

	Camden:	Feb 4th, 2009 at 03:15 GMT	4 points
	I bet the celtics one was a suprise to everyone. Hondo is a badass.

	RandallPinkston:	Feb 4th, 2009 at 03:35 GMT	2 points
	The one that surprised me (though I eventually guessed the right answer) was the Cavs. Here's a team that's been around for nearly 40 years, and the guy who holds the record has piled up his points in only five seasons (and is still only 24). What a special talent!

	Elmo:	Feb 4th, 2009 at 03:44 GMT	-3 points
	It irritates me to no end that Gary Payton is listed under an "Oklahoma City" record. Pathetic.

	Ben:	Feb 4th, 2009 at 12:44 GMT	2 points
	Ok... I switched out the OKC guy and made the Seattle one a bonus answer...

	Vernon Gonsalves:	Feb 4th, 2009 at 13:31 GMT	2 points
	LOL. Brian, you and I missed the same 5 (I didn't type in Baron Davis). I may have got Curry if I hadn't already guessed Durant for the Sonics/Thunder. I was thinking leading scorer since they hit New Orleans and tried most of the current guys (Stojakovic, Paul, Peterson)

	leakbrewergator:	Feb 4th, 2009 at 13:37 GMT	1 point
	26/30. I can't believe I missed the Sixers and Wizards. Would have never gotten the Clips. I completely forgot about the Hornets too, his son is gonna be one hell of a NBA player though.

	boston bully:	Feb 4th, 2009 at 15:16 GMT	2 points
	damn you hayes and english

	CraigR:	Feb 4th, 2009 at 16:03 GMT	2 points
	the Cavs stat is behind a little...it's over 12,000 now!! hehe

	retsyn:	Feb 4th, 2009 at 19:56 GMT	2 points
	can't believe a missed a couple of those easy answers and picked up harder answers like the hornets and magic.
