- Nate "Tiny" Archibald is an American retired professional basketball player. He spent 14 years playing in the NBA, most notably with the Cincinnati Royals, Kansas City-Omaha Kings and Boston Celtics. In 1991, he was enshrined in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.
Archibald was a willing passer and an adequate shooter from midrange. However, it was his quickness and speed and shiftiness that made him difficult to guard in the open court, as he would regularly drive past defenders on his way to the basket.

I remember him well. I hope the new generations take the time to watch this guy at his best. While playing in an era of great and dominant big-men, he was a 5-10 dynamo. Incredible player.
Mr Nate Archibald. Thank You for all the wonderful years of creative basketbAll. You was nice sir. I mean real nice.
I remember when Tiny was playing for DeWit Clinton High and he lit my Evander Tigers up with 44 points and we were up by five at halftime. Thanks a lot Tiny! From a Bronx kid that admired your great game!
I remember Tiny embarassing the big Men trying to block his shot when he was going to the hole. Multiple moves that made teams and opposing players look silly.
That video of the Celtics and Sixers....look at how many Hall-of-Famers were on that court! Tiny, Bird, McHale, The Chief, Cheeks, Bobby Jones.
Tiny was great. 'Nuff said.
Loved Tiny!!
Don’t understand: Tiny was a scorer, too. He essentially carried the Kings when he first came in. He was amazing! I saw lots of him Sundays on CBS when he was in his prime-another one of my all-time favs💥
Nate Archibald was Fierce in the NBA & in Harlem Street Ball
Tiny Archibald was perfect fit to the Boston Celtics in the 1981 championship even though some people thought his career was over, but Red Auerbach gave Nate a chance and he was able to play around great players who were also hall famers such as Larry bird, Kevin McHale and Robert Parish (The big 3)...It capped off one of the greatest moments for tiny Archibald to be part of a championship team
For young folks who dont know Nate ( The Skate ) Archibald you need to check up on him. HE WAS NICE! He was a small guard but was never afraid to penetrate and had so many shake moves it would make your head swivel. I mean he was nice. He could shake and bake like no other.
who was quicker him or James Silas

I saw him play with the Royals against the Lakers. He just ignored the Laker guards, passed right by them and went 1 on 1 against Wilt. Fearless. 35 pt. 10 assist average.
Did Jerry west and Gail Goodrich guard him

@@bradschultz1976 exactly...the first year they were the KC-Omaha Kings.
I was a junior in HS in Omaha the year he led the league in scoring and assists. My school was 2 blocks from the Civic Auditorium in downtown Omaha and I saw about 15 games that year. Unfortunately there is not much video of him from that year. He was absolutely incredible. They had a decent team with Sam Lacey, Tom Van Arsdale, Johnny Green, Don Kojis... but the league was so deep, they didn't make the playoffs. Tiny did what he wanted, was unstoppable and if there had been a 3 point line, he would have avged 40. His left hand jumper from 25ft was like a layup.
I remember being a Knicks fan but loved the Celts when Tiny played. Bronx NY . I played for Mitchel Lamus Projects
I know Tiny grew up in the Bronx, but with Bob Cousy mentoring him, then later teaming with Larry Bird and winning a championship, it's like he should have been a Celtic from the get. I was a young kid when Tiny got his ring, but I was as happy for him as any other player. He deserved it. Class act, humble, and EASILY one of the greatest PGs in NBA history.
I played for the Gauchos
Nate the Skate was Great 👍
Now, Walt Frazier is one of the most underrated stars in history.
A Giant in NYC. Leader of the NYC point guards. Check the stats.
Tiny was a better all around guard than Allen Iverson
What about James Silas.mel Daniels thought that Silas was the greatest point guard of all time.and Hubie brown thought Silas was the best point guard in either league during the merger.he was supposed to play with Houston and Calvin Murphy as a rookie
I remember Tiny. Played 4 the KC Royals @ 1time.
That was timely. I enjoyed that. Tiny and I have a few similarities. Most noted, is we both are lefties. He has me by 7 inches in height. Nice job Robin.
Much Gratitude
didn't know Kenny Anderson played for the Celts and he and Tiny Archibald sport the same #7 jersey and both are lefties.
Man, if Tiny would have played in ABA, it would be Rucker park ball all day with Tiny and free wheeling.
To good teams with good bench players
Thanks a lot for the upload. Great channel
Being from El Paso, Nate was my boyhood hero. I idolized him.
The greatest
Ahh man we all loved him
Nice!!!
I went to Dewitt Clinton.......Tiny and Butch Lee were my idols...I patterned my game after both...Made two All-Air Force Teams using what I seen on tape...
Gratitude
Ps Nate used to coach God Shammgod as well.
Wow back then we could of hear the play the coaches drew up in time out
Lmao
Dam there you have it go to the hole left hand or right hand thats basketball old school and played a long time
That Achilles injury really ruined his career.
Got Tiny at number 11 all time
I think Kareem thought that tiny Archibald was the greatest player he's ever seen.mel Daniels thought that James Silas was the greatest point guard of all time
Robin Roberts
To be 6 foot one and people call you tiny, smh.
Philly really choked ! They couldn’t even inbound a pass at the end of the game , then the simple lay up at the end! The warriors would have eaten these teams alive back then! These guys struggled with simple shots inside the paint! The warriors could have shoot from half court the whole game and beat these clowns!
The Warriors wouldn't be able to get the ball past half court without committing a palming violation.
Ernie "no" D
