Basketball players, High scorers I think. I guess this is more evidence I don't cheat. I'm almost certain Mikan has passed, the rest are all WAG's
Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

Oh yeah... something in my wheelhouse!

1. Artis Gilmore - Alive
2. Bob Love - Alive
3. Jerry Sloan - Alive

5. George Mikan - Dead
6. Bob Pettit - Alive
7. Clyde Lovellette - Alive
8. Terry Dischinger - Alive
9. Chuck Cooper - Dead
10. Bill Sharman - Alive

They're all former NBA players.

And half of them (Sloan, West, Mikan, Dischinger, and Sharman) went on to become NBA coaches in some capacity.

Fun fact: George Mikan ran for U.S. Congress in 1952.

And the day I actually know the theme, I get home too late to get the bonus.

I only added an extra post because I didn't want to edit my answer post and hadn't noticed how many people had answered before I opened the topic.
