Thanks for the memories.  I didn't remember enough to recall that the announcer was Shenkel.  It was on ABC way back then wasn't it.  I remember Satch Sanders,
Bailey Howell, when Havlicek and Cunningham came up (that's right Billy actually did play), Heinshon, KC, Sam and the Converse Chuck Taylor canvas All-Stars.  I
hate to live in the past.  But, those were great days.  Then the 70's with Jo Jo, Cowens, Havlicek still, Silas, Nelson (that's right he used to play too!), Charlie
Scott.  On to the 80's which most remember from being there.  Now, what about the '90's?  Is there anyone on this team that belongs on those teams?
