Talk:Gary Payton

message: I've been having trouble finding a citation for this, although I'm almost certain it did happen.  If I recall correctly, he did it at least once between 2000 and 2003, but finding old NBA game reports is very difficult, and I can't come up with a good query.  I'm pretty sure that it was an ACE bandage, but I'm not sure about that.  If anyone can find a source, or a good resource for looking up old NBA.com (or other) articles, it would be much appreciated.

message: It appears the other Gary Payton, an astronaut, uses a middle initial, thus the NBA player is "Gary Payton" and the astronaut is "Gary E. Payton" making their relative notability a non-factor.
But, even if the astronaut does not sign his checks with an "E." he should be moved to "Gary Payton (astronaut)" as the NBA player is infinitely more notable.  Geographical bias is not a factor as they are both American.

message: Underneath his picture it says that Gary Payton wore number 42 at some point in his career. When was this? I only recall him wearing 2 and 20, and can't find any info online about him wearing 42.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rtally3 (talk • contribs) 16:34, 12 June 2011 (UTC)

message: Considering he is a retired player now, Shouldn't there be a picture of Gary Payton in a suit, or him in a Seattle Sonics jersey? After all, he is most famous for his time in Seattle.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.73.73.67 (talk) 09:01, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

message: Wow, when I read this article, the first thing I noticed is that the “NBA career” part is very short during his SuperSonics tenure. For a player as great as he was and who made the Hall of Fame, that 13-year segment which makes up the bulk of his career should have way more detail.
