An aging Rodney "Hot Rod" Hundley and scoring phenomenon Elgin Baylor roomed together while playing for the Minneapolis Lakers in the early 1970s. In a game against the New York Knickerbockers, Baylor scored an astonishing 71 points; Hundley accounted for 2. Still, the veteran was quite content, observing that he and his esteemed partner tallied "73 points between us."
