When you remain a virgin for that long, you've got to divert that pent up energy somewhere else.

Awesome quiz. its amazing how you can remember five players as a unit. I wouldn't have remembered Rick Fox, AC Green, Nazr Mohammed otherwise

I played it again. Got all the Spurs players. You should put less time, maybe reduce it by 2 or 3 minutes.

Ariza only started 20 games during the '09 regular season.. I'm assuming you chose the starters based on playoffs only?

If you look at the box scores on basketball reference, he started every game of the finals.

Needs clarification based on who are defined as starters - if a guy started most regular season games but not the playoff games, is he a starter on this list?

i kept thinking eddie jones would be on here... played five years for the lakers than in 99 was traded to the hornets than the lakers won 3 titles, later went to the heat where he played for five years, got traded to the grizzlies and the heat won the championship

Either Glen Rice and AC Green played forever...or 2000 was longer ago than my mind can accept. Maybe both...

Pretty sure the starting C on the 05 Spurs was Rasho Nesterovic, not Nazr Mohammed. Not positive though.

35 out of 50. Forgot about Grant and especially Green being part of those early '00s Lakers teams, Nazr Mohammed, Fabricio Oberto...

On quizzes like this with so much repetition, does anyone agree that the percentiles should maybe be based on the number of distinct answers?

The teams from the early part of the decade faded from memory a bit. I couldn't remember Rick Fox's last name. Unbelievable. I'll never forget when Sheed and the Blazers blew that game 7 to the Lakers. Tragic.

Seeing as how basketball is filled with eras in which one or two teams dominated the entire era, it amazes me that the NBA is as popular as it is. It's a great sport, but it's one of those sports where one player can really have a huge impact and a sport in which a GM really has to have an answer for every player on the other team, especially the big guns.

Lamar Odom should be a bonus answer because of his playing time during the playoffs and his importance throughout the regular season.
