george muersan wants to have a word with you

My little brother got his pic taken standing next to George after at a Bullets game in about 1996 I think? He's a circus freak.

interesting:

On March 11, 2007, Mureșan played a game for the Maryland Nighthawks as part of the tallest lineup in the history of basketball. This is the only basketball game Mureșan has ever played where he was not the tallest person on the court, as Sun Mingming is 7' 9"

Oh yes, the titles. We can't forget the titles. :rollseyes:

Bill Russell was great against a bunch of 6' 4" old white guys named George and Fred who played for teams like the Sioux City Bobcats. Check his stats against Wilt. You won't like what you see.

Not altogether unreasonable. Bill Russell couldn't hit a barn from 3 pt land and was probably the worst FT shooter in NBA history. He'd get eaten alive in today's game.

All by himself? Are you kidding? Virtually 100% of the talent was monopolized by Red during that era. The guy was a crime boss. There was literally ZERO competition.
