Wait
editWait, isn't this list copyrighted by the NBA? Herostratus (talk) 03:24, 21 June 2021 (UTC)
- That's a decision for the NBA. They released the details at a press event, as opposed to publishing it exclusively in a book or video.—Bagumba (talk) 08:31, 22 October 2021 (UTC)
Top 10 Coaches in NBA History needs cleanup
editBill Fitch continued to coach after the list was published. In contrast to other coaches on this list who did so, he only has one coaching record entry - for his whole career. So his record up to the 95/96 season needs to be added. 165.1.194.41 (talk) 15:25, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
Potential improvement to Players selected list
editI'd say for players who were still active when being selected, the stats at the time of their selection is at least as interesting as their lifetime stats. So either change the stats to the status when they were selected, or do it like the Coach list and add their stats when they were selected above their lifetime stats. 165.1.194.41 (talk) 15:28, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
Annoying mistake on Lenny Wilkens' last name
editWilkens' last name is spelled Wilkins in one place and he should have his full name listed because it could be confusing for people who weren't alive at the time. 037eleven (talk) 00:17, 13 May 2026 (UTC)
- Fixed -- thanks for pointing out the misspelling! But you should feel free to make these sorts of edits without first obtaining consensus here.—Myasuda (talk) 00:46, 13 May 2026 (UTC)
