If you know anything about sports you know that everybody loves the little guy(usually). Ill name a few:Nate Robinson,Spud Webb,Earl Boykins and Mugsy Bogues. What do they all have in common? They were all short and they were all fan favorites. If you watched Nate Robinson a year ago when he won the slam dunk contest dunking over spud webb the place went crazy. If he was 6-9 would he have gotten a 50? No because everybody loves the underdog and the sight of a 5-7 nate dunking over a 5-7 Spud is just mind boggling. Mugsy at 5-3 was and still is the shortest nba player of all time. Earl is 5-5 and is the shortest active nba player and 2nd alltime to the previously mentioned Bogues. On January 11, 2007 Boykins was traded (along with Julius Hodge) to the Milwaukee Bucks for Steve Blake. So thats my opening post with many more to come in the future so if you got any skillz holla and leave me a comment.

Nate "Tiny" Archibald. None better. Led the league in scoring and assists. Your guys are his "offspring". And Tiny was from da Bronx.
