	NBA.com: Nate Thurmond Bio
		Thurmond spent his rookie season as an apprentice to Chamberlain, who had come into the league with the Philadelphia Warriors in 1959 and then moved with the franchise to San Francisco in 1962.
		Thurmond, then in his ninth season, spearheaded the drive by ranking fourth in the league in rebounding (16.1 rpg) and 19th in scoring (21.4 ppg).
		Thurmond, while never reaching the rarefied level of Chamberlain or Abdul-Jabbar, was nevertheless one of the elites of his era.

		For those not familiar with local basketball lore, the Nate in question is former Golden State Warrior/ NBA Hall of Famer Nate Thurmond, a man of significant stature (an inch short of seven feet) who has perfected the American -- and specifically Southern -- art of slow-cooking meat and slathering it with a fiery-sweet glaze.

	Begging for Big Nate's BBQ brisket
		Big Nate, as any San Franciscan who remembers the '60s or is a basketball fan will know, is the legendary Nate Thurmond.
		The adjective "big" doesn't even come close to describing him, either, I noted as he stood up to greet me. Of course, I had to ask, and the answer is 6 feet, 11 long and lanky inches tall.
		Slather the sauce onto ribs, steaks, burgers and chicken just before they have finished cooking on the grill; the sugar in the sauce will caramelize and burn quite quickly, and you want to avoid this kind of burnt bits, even if you are a devotee of the crispy, crusty edges, as I am.
