	Awesome quiz! You can just tell by some of the names in these starting lineups which teams were awful that year

	bizort:	Jan 3rd, 2011 at 06:26 GMT		1 point
	Minor problems: For Boston, Eric Williams was a SF/SG, not a C. I typed 'Williams' but it never took for Walt Williams. AC Green is on here twice. I know he was traded that year, though. Good quiz. I love old NBA starting lineups

	mister_pianoman:	Jan 3rd, 2011 at 06:29 GMT		3 points
	I know his name was Abdul-Rauf that season, but I would appreciate it if you accepted Chris Jackson for him.

	bliksem:	Jan 3rd, 2011 at 06:53 GMT		1 point
	Jeff Hornacek is not a small forward.

	tmilam:	Jan 3rd, 2011 at 07:00 GMT		2 points
	Thanks for the feedback. AC Green is on here twice because he played the most games at power forward for both the Suns and the Mavs. Eric Williams was primarily a small forward/power forward in his early days and he did play center for part of this season due to an injury to Center, Dino Radja who only played 25 games. Part of the reason they finished second last this year. Also I tested it again for 'Williams' and it worked for Walt. Not sure why it didn't work for you. Anyone else have this problem? Also the quiz now accepts 'Jackson' for Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf

	tmilam:	Jan 3rd, 2011 at 07:06 GMT		1 point
	My bad, Hornacek is now a SG and Russell is a SF.

	I'm assuming this is the season where Jason Kidd was traded midseason, and didn't get enough games for either team to be the main starter?

	danny ferry played center position? good quiz.

	tmilam:	Jan 3rd, 2011 at 17:04 GMT		1 point
	@KansasJayhawk Yeah, Jason Kidd only started 22 games for the Mavs where Derek Harper started 29. On the Suns Kidd started 23 and Kevin Johnson started 70 games, mostly at the point. @fabolous Yeah, they went with a small lineup even though he was primarily power forward.

	shouldn't the Wizards have been better?

	csl:	Jan 3rd, 2011 at 22:03 GMT		1 point
	Weren't the Wizards still the Bullets in 96-97?

	tmilam:	Jan 3rd, 2011 at 23:49 GMT		2 points
	@csl Good spot, yeah this was their last season as the Bullets. It's fixed now.

	phoenixsnow:	Jan 6th, 2011 at 00:05 GMT		5 points
	Great quiz. Wouldn't mind seeing some for other years.

	Rake2204:	Jan 14th, 2011 at 15:56 GMT		2 points
	Great quiz indeed. I have to admit likely the only reason I reeled in the power forward that year for San Antonio was because I happened to attend that year's Spurs-Pistons game when it seemed like San Antonio had EVERYONE on the injured list that game. And yes, I'd be a huge fan of more years being created for this quiz. Very fun.

	Added an asterisk to all the teams that made the playoffs this year. I Think it adds to the quiz.
