I got lucky there! I guessed more than knew but I really know my NBA, lol.

Here's a slightly harder one: what team was the only NBA player to be banned for throwing games on?

Edit: I guess I should have worded it "I am the only player in NBA history to be banned for throwing games. Who did I play for?"

Close but no cigar. ------------------------------- VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

Nope. Shannon was geographically closer. A hint: the team has no mainstream cards but does have a TID.

Ding Ding Ding! We have a winner! :) The team only has two cards, in the Bread for Health set of 1950-51. The player is Alex Groza. The card does not have a scan, unfortunately. http://www.tradingcarddb.com/ViewCard.cfm/sid/122056/cid/8275712/1950-51-Bread-for-Health-NNO-Alex-Groza

I have never even heard of the Indianapolis Olympians haha. Okay I got one more: My legs were so badly bowed as a child, they were both broken intentionally to reset them. I later became a one time NBA all star. Who am I? ------------------------------- -Shannon

I got nothing. I know I've heard the story but I can't remember who it is. How about a hint? I have another easy trivia question too but let's get this one solved first.

My best years were spent playing for the Dallas Mavericks. I was only an all star as a replacement player. I retired a few season ago after a relatively short career.
