Mackenzie DavisMacKenzie ScottMackenzie CrookIt seems my brain files names thinking Mackenzie is enough of an identifier and then I get confused when I see a headline about MacKenzie Scott giving $436m to charity and momentarily wonder how much money he made from The Detectorists.

Marvin Barnes and Marvin Webster.
I'm halfway through Bad News: The Turbulent Life Marvin Barnes, Pro Basketball's Original Renegade. When I bought it a year or two ago, I suspect I thought I was buying a book about Marvin Webster: longer career, easy to remember because of his nickname "The Human Eraser."
Their rookie seasons were separated by only a year, both began in the ABA, and--although Webster had the nickname that celebrated his shot-making prowess--Barnes was also a proficient shot-blocker. Because of his drug addiction and other issues, Barnes was out of the NBA by 1980; Webster played until 1987.
Barnes was Philly's #2 pick in the '74 NBA draft, after Bill Walton. Denver held his ABA rights, and an agreement was reached whereby if he signed with any ABA team other than Denver, they'd get the #1 pick in the '75 draft. St. Louis signed Barnes, Denver got the consolation draft pick, and they took...Marvin Webster.

"his shot-making prowess"--should say "shot-blocking prowess"
Denver took David Thompson in the '75 draft. They seemed to have a knack in those days for picking potential superstars who flamed out.
