No. This is a really good trivia question. Just watched some YouTube videos and stunned by how quick he was. He's in the NBA. Hall of Fame. Only scored 1,700+ points in four years of college ball
OT: Sports trivia. Part three.

Well it has to be N.C. Central and I have no idea who it may be but if he's in the HOF he has to have played in the 60's or 70's and had to have played for a team that won mulitple championships like the Lakers or the Celtics or play for more than one franchise. I gonna guess he played for the Celtics and it is K.C. Jones because I know that Russell, Havlichek and Cousy did not play at N.C. Central. OFC
I will ask a trivia question about KC Jones some other day. KC Jones played at the University of San Francisco with Bill Russell. They won back to back NCAA titles and KC was a great player for the Celtics. KC won 10 NBA titles as a player with Russell in Boston including 8 in a row. Russell won an eleventh as player/coach in 1968. KC Jones also was the head coach of the Celtics for their titles in 1984 and 1986
You are on the right track. I knew two men who went to Central who say that the correct answer is a Hall of Fame person as well as player
I'm glad that you let me ask the question. My day was made looking at YouTube videos. He would be a star today
He was the #8 pick in the 1957 NBA draft. Rosenbleuth was #6 after leading UNC to the NCAA title. The GM who drafted #8 only learned of the player because he came to North Carolina to scout UNC
Until researching the question, I didn't know that this gentleman is from Wilmington NC. He has more NBA titles than Wilmington's Michael Jordan. Actually, he has more titles than Jordan and LeBron combined!
I went back to page 2 of this thread. It took me back to high school when I got into a real fight with my high school teammate. I insisted that Larry Bird was better than Mark Aguirre. My teammate insisted that Bird was a slow farm boy. I didn't know that Bird averaged 14.9 rebounds in 1979
I saw this online about a week ago so I won't answer. It would have taken several guesses otherwise
That's exactly where I saw it, and I thought hmm, would of never guessed that. That's why I put the school, to narrow the possabilities down .
Not Rony, I can't spell his last name either...lol. Ha , I guess that is the right spelling, it looked off. Shows you how clueless I was with the spelling.

I guess it came up because LeBron was 28 - 0 against Kemba Walker, until he lost to the Celtics this year. I think the nearest matchup to Jordan's 30 - 0 is like 18 -0. They listed the entire top 10.
I just want to say that you guys are amazing. I'd jump in with an answer if I ever had one...but haven't gotten one in months.
Keep up the good work.
