In all sports, certain players can largely be remembered for their times with a certain franchise/team.
Larry Bird? Celtics
Magic Johnson? Lakers
Michael Jordan? Bulls.
Many star players go through the majority of their careers on one team or are the center pieces of a few of them, and we remember them for that... but some are either traded to teams for short stints, or attempt to hang on in the NBA for a team willing to try to squeek out the last talent they have left at the end of theircareer.
This thread is to look at players who are largely associated with franchise/franchises where they were defined, and it's just awkward to see them in a certain jersey. If you are an NBA history buff, these pictures just look odd.
Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon
Robert Parish
Dominique Wilkins
Shaquille O'Neal
Patrick Ewing
Allen Iverson
Dennis Rodman
Chris Webber
Tracy McGrady
Karl Malone
Tim Hardaway
Jason Kidd
