10/20/09 Trivia Question?

Who is the only player in NBA history to have taken to the NBA courts with Michale Jordan and Larry Bird as teamates?

Beat, I'll try before NYCelt beats me to it (no pun intended). Is it Chief, Robert Parrish. I know he played for the Bulls when he refused to retire!!!

David

Not the answer I had but he may have I'll have to check on that.

Thanks Beat. I am a "huge" Chief fan and was very disappointed that he did not retire a Celtic. However, I'm very happy that he returned to the Boston community. I'll look for your response. I thought I could sneak it in before NY and/or one of the regulars beat me to it.

I like your idea here.

David

Parish did in fact play with both played with Jordan in 96-97 season for 42 games.

My trivia sourse did not have him listed.

But there is another player who played with both. As a Celtic and a Bull (of course)

Beat, how about Sam Vincent!!!!!

DAVID

Stupid me I wrote the question wrong? Only player to WIN championships with both? Obviously Parish did not win with the Bulls so

YES Sam Vincent is the correct answer.

Geesh you got it even with out the correct question being asked.

My klutz moment of the day!!

Trying to come up with obscure questions is tough!

Beat, as much as a Celtic fan as I think I am I have a hard time keeping up with you guys/girl (Rosalie is a Celtic encyclopedia!!). Therefore, I like your idea about trivia questions.

Actually, I think the Bulls did win the year Chief joined them in 1996-1997. I was happy for Robert and miserable that it was not with the C's. Someday, I'd love to show you a picture Chief took with my wife and my youngest son. The picture taker was joking around, and said "stand on your tip toes". Robert actually did stand on his tip toes in response!!! It was a "framer".

Thanks,

David

Took me a bit to check it out. Although Parish was on the Chicago team in 96-97 that won it all. He only played in 2 playoff games that year and both were in the conference semis against Atlanta. I am not sure but he might have not even been an active player in the finals. Anyway the wording was and this time I will get it right who played in the finals with both Jordan and Birs and won a ring. Critcal word being PLAYED. My bad again. Sam Vincent is still the right and only answer.

I'm another fan of your idea here, beat, and just thought i'd let you know you have more readers in support than necessarily speak up (partly beacuse the question is gobbled up before the words are hardly out of your moth !! <LOL> )

Never discussed this with Sam but I'm sure he doesn't mind it. I've always been a trivia freak. Like knowing the number of dimples on a golf ball (back when there was only one pattern) to knowing what BDV (underwear) actually stood for (bradley vorhees and day)

and lots of other truly worthless knowledge.

Now to come up with suitable Celtic trivia that will make it past a few minutes is tough.

Tomorrows question is a bit obscure but interesting.
Tought about keeping track as to who gets the most right but that would constitute work and I don't want that.

To be posted shortly after 9 AM.

Beat: I'll bet Chief still got a ring whether or not he was on the Finals roster for the Bulls in '96-'97.-MD

MD, great to see you here. I was hoping you would become active on Sam's new site. You always offered a good laugh on a timely basis. Chief did get his 4th ring with the Bulls. I'm hoping he sold it on e-Bay!!!

Take care,
