25ppg on 59% TS, 2nd in the NBA in assists/game, lead his team to a 5th place regular season finish in the East as the only star on the team, didn't even come close to sniffing an all-NBA team.

The last team to score at least 119.7 point/game were the Denver Nuggets in 1990-91 when they averaged 119.9 points/game and finished the season 20-62 (24.4% W-L). The next best winning percentage among teams to average at least 119.7 points/game belongs to the Los Angeles Lakers, who averaged 121.0 points/game in 1971-72, where they finished the season 69-13 (84.1% W-L).

The last team(s) to hold their opponents below 41.2 FG% were the Houston Rockets in 2003-04, who held their opponents to 41.2% from the field and finished the season 45-37 (54.9% W-L) and the San Antonio Spurs in 2003-04, who held their opponents to 40.9% from the field and finished the season 57-25 (69.5% W-L). The next best winning percentage among teams to hold their opponents below 41.2 FG% belongs to the San Antonio Spurs, who held their opponents to 40.2% from the field in 1998-99, where they finished the season 37-13 (74.0% W-L).

Do you agree with the list, if not which 1990-91 NBA Player do you want to replace from any NBA Team?

Plus, Magic Johnson has been retired due to HIV Positive and played in the 1992 NBA All-Star Game.

I'm curious if there are other common cards from the late 80's/early 90's that people may have in their collection that could hold some value and you might not know it.

Thought it'd be interesting to see the distribution by decade of each of the 75 players. Here's how many players on the NBA's 75th Anniversary Team entered the league each decade:

• 1940s (1)
• 1950s (9)
• 1960s (16)
• 1970s (10)
• 1980s (16)
• 1990s (12)
• 2000s (8)
• 2010s (4)

In their first 36 Serbian Superliga matches, Crvena zvezda have won 33 and drawn 3, and so currently stand at 102 points (they've scored 104 goals and conceded 19, for a goal difference of +85).

As of now, the world record for points in a league season is held by Celtic, who finished the 2016-17 Scottish Premiership with 106 points, winning 34 matches and drawing the remaining 4.

If Crvena zvezda win their final two matches (away on 14/5 vs OFK Bačka, currently standing at 20th place with 16 points and 3 wins; and home on 19/5 vs Metalac Gornji Milanovac, currently standing at 7th place with 51 points, exactly half of Crvena zvezda's tally), they will finish the season with an amazing 108 points, and the all-time world record.

They've also reached the Serbia Cup final, which they will contest on the 25th of May against their eternal rivals and 1965-66 European Cup runners-up Partizan (who themselves have had an excellent season, currently standing at 2nd place with 92 points and a goal difference of +73).

>Julius Randle now has 4 games with 25 points and 10 rebounds this season.
>
>That's the most such games by a Knicks player in the team's first 8 games since Hall of Famer Patrick Ewing's 5 in the 1990-91 season.

Honestly, a remarkable start to the season for Julius Randle. This is one I'm sure many weren't expecting. Randle also leads the Knicks in APG at 7.4 a game

The first 10 members of the Dream Team were announced on a selection show on NBC on Sept. 21, 1991. Those 10 players, in order of the reveal:

• Magic Johnson (1st Team, All-Star Starter)
• Charles Barkley (1st Team, All-Star Starter)
• Karl Malone (1st Team, All-Star Starter)
• John Stockton (3rd Team, All-Star Reserve)
• Patrick Ewing (2nd Team, All-Star Starter)
• David Robinson (1st Team, All-Star Starter)
• Larry Bird
• Chris Mullin (2nd Team, All-Star Starter)
• Scottie Pippen
• Michael Jordan (1st Team, All-Star Starter)

The 11th spot went to Clyde Drexler, who finished second in NBA MVP voting in the 1991-92 season:

• Clyde Drexler (2nd Team, All-Star Reserve)

The last spot had to go to a collegian: Duke’s Christian Laettner. He was the obvious choice after leading the Blue Devils to a repeat national championship and earning Player of the Year honors.

• Christian Laettner

So of those 12 players, which players were All-Stars and All-NBA the year before and the year after the Olympics? (Hint: Basically everyone except Bird, who had a bad back, Pippen (who hadn't yet become a bonafide star), and Laettner, who was an incoming rookie.)

The three All-Star starters from 1991 not to make the Dream Team were Bernard King, Joe Dumars, and Kevin Johnson.

The only All-Star starter from 1992 not to make the Dream Team was Isiah Thomas.

The two 2nd Team All-NBA players from 1991 not to make the Dream Team were Dominique Wilkins and Kevin Johnson.

The only 2nd Team All-NBA player from 1992 not to make the Dream Team Tim Hardaway.
