Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Who did Isiah Thomas punch in the back of the head, breaking his own hand?

Answer: Bill Laimbeer

Isiah and Bill were teammates for the Pistons.

2. Who represented the 'M' in the trio known as "Run TMC"?

Answer: Mitch Richmond

The high octane trio affectionately known as "Run TMC" consisted of Tim Hardaway, Mitch Richmond, and Chris Mullin. They led the Golden State Warriors to several exciting playoff runs during the early 1990s.

3. Dennis Rodman concluded his career in 2000 with how many championship rings?

Answer: 5

Rodman earned his nickname "The Worm" for his defensive prowess, tenacious reboounding, and intense scrappiness as a member of 5 NBA championship winning teams: Detroit Pistons (1988-1989 & 1989-1990); Chicago Bulls (1995-1996, 1996-1997, & 1997-1998).

Answer: 25

To add to the drama of this exciting series, Reggie Miller taunted the New York crowd, particularly life-long New Yorker Spike Lee. In the game's closing moments Miller paced towards Lee, and expressed the now infamous "choke-hold". Ironically, the Pacers went on to lose Game 7, and the series at Madison Square Garden.

5. Who was the player that had the unenviable task of taking over at shooting guard for the Chicago Bulls, during the 1993-1994 season after Michael Jordan retired for the first time?

Answer: Pete Myers

A journeyman player, Pete Myers spent time with 5 NBA clubs over 9 seasons in the league, and posted the highest single season scoring average of his career at 7.9 PPG (a far cry from MJ's 32.6 PPG the year before).
