To this day, it baffles me how Muggsy Bogues at 5'3 was able to have a 15 year NBA career

The first time I ever saw him, it was my dad STANNING HIM during the Goodwill Games back in the day on some [Nigerian]”ah ah! Come and watch this little guy, oh!!”[/Accent]
:russ:
My pops could not stop laughing watching him dominate those games.

I miss my pops . He was a sports nut. :to:

Bro, he was the NBA player to give all short kids a chance to dream. I used to think damn, I'm already 5'2. If I get to 5'10, I got a chance. Too bad a brotha stopped growing at 5'8.

Him and Earl Boykins had me thinking the NBA wasn't that hard to make it even if you was under 6 feet. Then I realized it's only 2 short nikkas like them in the NBA out of millions of short nikkas. You gotta be a generational talent to be their size and stay in the NBA for over a decade.

I wonder what his pre draft metrics were. He must have been a hell of a work out warrior
Looking at his stats he seemed like a basic type player, for some reason I thought he was ASG caliber in his prime. I guess his rep preceded his ability based off size. Didn't realize he played until the 2000s either
