I was surprised they let Artest come back after he assaulted a bunch of fans during a game, if that counts.

**BlakeJesus** · 01-08-2013, 12:15 PM

Grant Hill still playing is pretty amazing. Not only considering how old he is, but the amount of major injuries he's sustained and came back from.

Here's another one...

36 year old Andre Miller still playing despite his inability to shoot the ball is pretty impressive.

**** that. It's him!

Yep. 34 years old and shoots 41% over his career. Terrible.

Seven-footers who are good citizens and play decent defense can cash veterans' minimum deals essentially indefinitely.

Shaq used to keeps dozens of guys like the Collins twins cashing NBA paychecks. Everyone who aspired to beat his team in the playoffs would have at least two or three guys who were only around to put a big body on him and send him to the stripe

Am I the first one in with Andray Blatche?

**Dre** · 01-08-2013, 07:17 PM

@ Blatche. You'd love Blatche in Houston or Boston.

Anyways Kurt Thomas

Budden was getting at him calling him washed up in like 04 "and like Kurt Thomas you ain't good for shit on the block" and he's still around

And Stack is weird. He disappeared for like two years, didn't he even do some TV at one point

It's funny because of all the players drafted between 94-97 that are still active Thomas and Camby are the only two that weren't allstars.

Can I change my vote to Mike James? Probably the worst player to average 20PPG since I've been following the NBA.

**King Sancho Fantastic** · 01-16-2013, 06:00 PM

Stackhouse is still in the league?!

Mattsanity · 01-16-2013, 09:02 PM

Mr. Stackhouse

**Wade County** · 01-16-2013, 09:06 PM

Mike James?
Luke Walton?
Shaun Livingston - that knee...

**Knick Killer** · 01-16-2013, 10:31 PM

Mike James is still playing? I loved that guy when he played in Toronto.

I'm usually pretty good with knowing where players are playing but before I googled it I literally had no idea Mike James plays for the Mavs.
