yh Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 The consummate professional and a most reluctant superstar. Many of today's athletes could learn a lesson or two from the manner in which George Mikan lived his life. Farewell, Sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OB33 Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 Really the NBA logo should be of George Mikan instead of Jerry West. The logo would have to be about two feet taller #CHOMPCHOMPCHOMP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSU151 Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 Afer tonight's game, Shaq offered to pay for Mikan's funeral. That's an incredible gesture if you ask me. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
