Ya, I tried to connect Moses Malone and Wes and it said no path!

Yeah, I tried to do Pete maravich and Patty Cakes. I think the easiest part is when the players play far, far apart.

 

[julius]

STUMPAGE!!!!

Nevermind, i spelled Chucks' last name wrong.

 

[Eastoff]

Yeah, I tried to do Pete maravich and Patty Cakes. I think the easiest part is when the players play far, far apart.

But I think I can actually do it with it's help.

No love for Joel? I think Joel is more prominent/helped us win more games than Greg has.

The John Long to Marcus Camby connection is huge in a lot of these scenarios. Kinda like Kevin Bacon and the JFK/A Few Good Men situation.

Consider yourself slapped! But I'd rather have G.O come back and do it to all the doubters!

[BrianFromWA]

Oracle at UVA did this with actors back in the late 90's. The trick was to get as high a unique number of separation without getting a "no connection". I think the highest they got to was 11.
