Is the The in the The Bible capitalized for a reason?

Nope, that was a typo.
I'll edit it.

How about an additional clue? (Feel free to say no!)

Is the sequence of those numbers a factor? Or are those numbers just 4 "whatever" total, and the order doesn't matter?

Or if there is a certain way to respond to what i asked, that covers my question, you can answer it however you need to (if you will!)

Great question.

The four parts are absolutely in order.

So this isn't right but this is as close as I can get.

My guess is Steve Blake for the person, and Maryland Terrapins for the what.

I am four parts: What Am I?
  1. Is found in the water. A Terrapin
  2. Is found on land Another Terrapin (making it plural, since they are technically the Terrapins) OR 'land' from Maryland
  3. Is found in the Bible Mary
  4. Is found in a church. Statue/picture of Mary, or just someone named Mary at church.
For the second clue. Steve Blake played with Pau from Spain, and Sasha Vujacic from Slovania. Couldn't find an Argentina reference though. He played against Manu haha? I don't know.

I am convinced that this has to do with the 2006-2008 Toronto Raptors.

Going to say you are Andrea Bargnani.

Piggy backing off of jmorgalis's guess. Juan Dixon would be a better guess than my Steve Blake guess.

For the nationality clue, he played with Delfino, Calderon, and Nesterovic on the 07-08 Raptors.

Still can't get the first part to really fit though....

Good call on that raptors team though, I feel like its gotta be someone on there but idk how.

Yeah, the 07-08 Raptors have all three nations represented...actually two from Slovenia. So what, Chris Bosh being told to go back to Toronto since he is a free agent?
6/7/2018 4:19 PM
Jason Kapono?!?

U: as in I saw 'you' in church
C: as is 'sea' for the water
L: as in the letter 'L' is in the Bible
A: as in A-frame, which is found on land.

Then the 07-08 Raptors nationality reasons.

The correct answer has not been guessed yet.

Very interesting connection with Toronto there. That is a great find, however I will tell you guys that it is not related to the correct answer.

Remember to explain your answers in full for potential Street Cred.

Kapono was a decent effort but ultimately too much of a stretch.

My last guess will be wrong but maybe it will get the rest of you thinking along a different line.

Jabari Parker.

Salt is something found in water, on land, in the Bible and in a church (literally holy salt for Pentecostal.) That could be a clue for Salt Lake City, i.e. The LDS Church.

Mormons would go on mission to South America, eastern Europe and Spain (there is an LDS church in Spain) and are probably told to go back home often enough. Parker is a Mormon whose mom emigrated to the US and was raised in Salt Lake City. There are only a few Mormon NBA players, so this shouldn't be too long of a tangent.

Okay, here's my guess - Kevin Love

High School Mascot was Pilot Joe Sea Farer (Looks like he hangs out in the water to me)
College mascot was Bruins (Land)
1st NBA team Mascot was Timberwolves (Lots of **** in the bible about wolves)
2nd NBA team Mascot was Cavaliers (Meet the Cavalier Baptist Church)

Beat Slovenia with 2010 USA team and beat Argentina and Spain with 2012 USA Team.
