Brian Winters


It is the middle of the NBA season. So to follow up my wonderful posts about the Gasol brothers, I thought it was only fitting to go old school NBA and go with Brian Winters. Sure, he played before I was born, but I do have ESPN classic. I remembering watching an old Bucks game from the late 70's and I was completely captivated by this bearded legend. He may not be a hall of gamer, but he was a solid player. He was a two-time all star and averaged almost 20 points a game from 1975-1979. Also, the portrait of him is truly fantastic and I would buy it in a heart beat it I was able to. A true legend in the bearded sporting wold, I really wish I would have been alive in the 70's, I think I would have fit in magnificently.
