  2. Highly entertaining, Adam! That "…which Detroit team?" question was a softie but the "35 points and 6 three pointers" in Game One against my Trail Blazers was clutch! I thought it was 30 points in the first half, but I probably stopped counting after the sixth three-ball fell through the net!

  3. Seemed like Michael Jordan was an ideal subject for this game. With most of those questions, I was like, "No way anyone's going to be able to steal this one" (except for Adidas). I stumbled on the same two you did (Jordan wore Converse in college & I thought the LaBradford game was 30-points). Great poise up there nonetheless.

  4. That LaBradford Smith question at 25:20 was a tough one. It was almost worded as if you should answer "how many did Jordan score in the next match-up with LaBradford (36)" but was worded to say "how much did Jordan vow to score in the first half (37)." You nailed Jordan's actual number (36) but that was not the number he "vowed" to score (37). I think the wording of the question was a bit strange.
