I'm not gonna cheat and use Google, that shit would just be lame :lol But I wouldn't say this is necessarily an easy trivia quiz, you would definitely need to be more than a casual to get a lot of these questions
1. I can't name a single one, I don't think Maverick Carter was his teammate
2. Hummer
3. I would assume Bill Walton is one of the players who turned the tide in those Finals, though not sure of a specific event, a bad call?
4. I'm blanking on this one, Craig Hodges is one, I can't name the other two
5. I remember it was something like $90 million
6. Pat Garrity was on Orlando, Jeff Foster was on Indy, I remember Cherokee Parks but I can't place him, Minny?
7. No idea, if it was a current NFL player at the time my guess would be Warren Sapp
8. Absolutely no idea
9. I'm confident Hakeem is one, Manute Bol another?
10. I always assumed it was due to him being a headcase
11. Paul Silas was the coach, Big Z, Ricky Davis & Boozer are 3, can't quite think of a 4th
12. No idea, Bird?
13. Chris Jackson
14. I think it was Rubio
15. Don't even know what that is :lol

Brian Windhorst was the starting center on LeBron's high school team.
I'm pretty sure he averaged close to a double double. Wasn't much of a scorer, he just hit the offensive boards really hard.
He got an academic, not a athletic scholarship, to Kent State if I remember correctly.

Its super easy, don't be lazy and shut me up. Id be surprised in most of yall know at least half lol
1) Name one of lebron highschool teammates - Guy named Romeo was one of them, friend of mine was asked "you hoopin?" by LeBron his sophomore or junior year (LeBron's senior year) because he was the other "tallest kid" at St Vincent at that time along side LeBron (my friend was about 6-8). No my friend didn't join the team he never played organized basketball.
2) What was lebrons first car? - Yellow Hummer H2
3) At the 1977 Nba finals, what turned the tide and what 2 players were involved? - No clue but in a bit of the gametape I've watched Blazers had better team Chemistry vs the more talented Sixers. I'm guessing Walton was involved.
4) Fill the blanks for these 3 old school Jordan teammates, Dave ? , Brad ? and Craig ? - Craig Hodges and idk I'm not super familiar with 80's bulls
5) how much money was lebrons first Nike contract? - Heck if I know
6) assign the teams for these 3 role players (Cherokee parks, Pat Garrity and Jeff Foster - can't sorry
7) What NFL player judged the McDonalds 2003 dunk contest? - No idea
8)Who was lebrons rival in high school who never made it in the Nba? - No idea
9) Name two centers who started playing basketball late - Joel Embiid not sure whom else Olajuwon? and depends on what is considered "late" anyways. I didn't play organized until I was 23, so to me even Embiid started early!
10) Why did Dennis rodman not fit with the Spurs? - I'm only guessing here but I bet his personality clashed with Robinson's straight as a razor image. On court chemistry wise idk the point of adding another superlative rebounder that can't score when Robinson had no trouble getting his team some boards in the first place but needed scoring help?
11) Name 4 teammates of lebron rookie season and the coach - Paul Silas the coach, Big Z, Boozer, Eric Snow were that era Cavaliers - that's all I can recall
12) Doctor J played one on one vs another leyend, who? Watched this many times, KAJ and KAJ crushed him despite a pretty big age difference (after 35 every year is big!) and KAJ was not known as a 1 on 1 player whilst Dr. J was known as a great one so this result just goes to show 1 on 1 isn't about your moves. Proves if you're a big with a few good shots you can just spam them on a smaller player to death because I also recall seeing Bob Lanier win a 1 on 1 tournament against much smaller but "skilled" guards.
13) Mahmoud abdul rauf was formerly know as? I can't remember off hand but if I heard it multiple choice I'd get it immediately.
14) Who were selected by Minnesota right before Steph Curry? No clue, Kevin Love? I don't even know their draft years.
15) Eric gordon was outdunked in the "dunk in" by who? No clue
