        ah, good call, Lucas...and Kermit Washington!....remember that Tomjonavich punch...shattered his whole face...Oakley was a tough SOB, but not top 10 for me...Shaq?

    What is this Red Hook Brooklyn crap? Mello is from Baltimore. Doesn't anyone remember the "Stop Snitchin'" video?

      I went with the info up on Wikipedia. Thought it sounded wrong, but anonymously edited webpages are infallible!

    Who was it that straight punched out Rudy Tojonovich or whatever the former Rockets coach when the won their championships? Tree Rollins maybe?
