As a lifetime Milwaukee native, I've always loved Cummings. How can you not love someone who plays 18 seasons and stays productive pretty much the whole time?

Milwaukee just ran into some all-time great teams in the 80s in the east and just couldn't get over the hump facing those teams; first, the Sixers and Celtics, and no team was beating those two teams back to back to get to the finals; when they fell off here come the Pistons; the Bucks couldn't catch a break that decade.....

The back and forth with trades from Seattle the Bucks were insane. Essentially an all star team with veterans, experienced and some young players in the mid and late 80’s. I loved going to games at Mecca and the Bradley Center with my dad. I even got to talk and shake hands with Parish and McHale once. Larry wasn’t friendly but I tapped him on the shoulder. Old heroes here. 😢

Great video. Terry Cummings so quite underrated. This channel has made me think about NBA players who are playing today that will end up on lists like this. I know Kemba Walker, who retired a few days back, Tobias Harris, Andre Drummond, Bradley Beal, Zach Lavine, Pascal Siakam, CJ McCollum, John Wall, Jrue Holiday, Khris Middleton, maybe Al Horford, Jamal Murray, Blake Griffin and Rajon Rondo, who also retired in April, DeAndre Jordan, Kristaps Porzingis, maybe Bam Adebayo and even Myles Turner and Julius Randle will end up on lists like this.

I saw him carrying his newborn baby with his wife in Evergreen Plaza Mall back in the 80's being the humble dude he is with no security. He definitely should be in the Hall Of Fame. He was better than a lot of people who have been selected recently. A straight up Chi City legend who could flat out ball.
