Position
The article states that jungle jim was a forward, but the box to the right states he was a shooting guard. need clarification. (by the way, I attended bob cousy's basketball camp in the 50s and jungle jim was one of the coaches there. i learned alot about the forward position from him including some dirty tricks.  really great guy) Trucker11 (talk) 10:53, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for pointing out the error. I've gone and corrected the infobox. &mdash; Myasuda (talk) 13:07, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

Need to use NBAretired info box
I'm not up on the differences "NBA Player" vs. "NBAretired" Infobox, but Loscutoff is clearly retired and needs to have the infobox changed. I think one of the bad consequences of not using the NBAretired box, is that there is an "Info Page" link which I believe is automatically generated but is meant for ACTIVE players and hence is a BROKEN link for Loscutoff. (compare with Kevin McHale who is retired and has a NBAretired info box.)

Number of Championships
According to NBA.com and basketball reference, Loscutoff played for the Celtics from 1958-1964, which means he only won 6 NBA titles, not 7. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 169.234.7.180 (talk) 17:58, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Loscutoff played for the Celtics from the 1955-56 season through the 1963-64 season, so seven titles is correct. I haven't seen any source that supports your assertion (1958-1964) including the ones you listed (click on  and  as well as ) &mdash; Myasuda (talk) 02:21, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

According to basketball reference, Loscy only won 6 rings (57, 59, 61-64). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.77.192.235 (talk) 13:14, 8 September 2015 (UTC)
