Message: [QUOTE="HuskylnSC, post: 3639944, member: 7953"] I think the quarter story belongs to a Rucker legend: Herman “Helicopter” Knowlings - Ben Franklin (Harlem, NY) Knowlings, is known for his leaping ability, and legend has it that at rucker he once blocked three NBA players shots in one possession. Bernard King, former all star for the New York Knicks once said, "When I was in 9th grade, I saw the Helicopter, with my own two eyes, pick a quarter off the top of the backboard to win a bet, and I was in complete shock," Knowlings never played professional basketball and was killed in a car accident at the age of 37. He was famous in street ball when I was growing up. [/QUOTE]
