    Remember Ron Howard when he played Opie on the Andy Griffith show? Opie could shoot pretty well, but he could not defend or create his own shot. Is this comparison fair?

    Actually I would compare him to the older Opie on Happy Days... He was a good player but he couldn't make the clutch shots he always missed that last game winning free throw... Then his dad Mr. C. would give him a lifesaver... Okay so now you have to match the rest of the Happy days crew like the Fonz and Potsie with current rocket players... of course you could always select Opie in his later days when he did what he did best, direct. So maybe Bryce should coach!

    Clearly, Steve Francis is the Fonz. Pig could play Al Molinero, Collier could be Potsie, and CD could play Mr. C. Too bad Thomas Hamilton is gone, because he could have played the older Joanie, after she got fat and b****ed about her contract.

    Not to continue this thread, but hey why not? What else is there to do? :

    Cross Opie Taylor with Manute Bol and you get Shawn Bradley.

    THREAD EXIT SEQUENCE STARTED.
