He stunk. Averaged 20 ppg and 10 rpg against slow tiny white guys. Couldn't make a middle school team today.

Great player if somewhat limited. His Bucks teams couldn't get past the Celtics in the conference Semi's.

Lanier wore size 22s for those who don't get the joke.

He was one of those guys who seemed older than he was.

This is who he dominated. Bob Cousy is No. 33 in this video:

Tell your old man to drag Walton and Lanier up and down the court for 48 minutes!
