    Why, you ask? Because in a perfect world we would own one of those machines from the movie. That way we could let the Chuckwagon play in Thabeet's body and donate his brain to science.

    We have a history with tall African centers. We just need to develop this man into a aggressive rebounding defensive center. Protect the paint baby!

    Hasheemitar, Giant Leaping Lizard, the Shot-Blocking Mega-Reptile from Basketball Hell. Long name, but let's hope it happens. Maybe Olajuwon can teach him footwork. Maybe Hayes can teach him hustle. Maybe Sikma can teach him to shoot. Maybe Morey can take him to the Toyota Center's dungeon lab and apply scrotal electrodes to supercharge him. Maybe... maybe... yeah, well, maybe world peace will break out.

    We'll be missing the "no stats all star" now that we actually have the real "no stats all star."

    What are you talking about? Leslie once scored 101 points in a game (in high school). Thabeet will be lucky if he scores half that much. Plus, Leslie can dunk.

    No nickname for this guy...he needs to work hard and change the course of the failure of a career he's had thus far.

    Nothing since Nigerian is not a language.
    Google where Hakeem is from and ask whats the word for bust in Hakeem's native language.

    I laugh at the WNBA as much as the next person (probably more), but Lisa Leslie was amazing. Even if she was a girl. She scored 100 points by halftime in highschool - The other team quit! Imagine if she played the whole game! I don't care if she is a girl or not, that's still amazing.


    Again, I think the WNBA is a joke. But that doesn't mean a girl can't be great (just not compared to NBA players)

    Not only that but she's a girl who could dunk! She was pretty damn good. Heck, I think she could out bench Durant, even today.

    Trust me, I'll make fun of the WNBA too, but, you can't honestly tell me if she was still in her prime and geared up to sign with us you won't be excited. She's Lisa Freaking Leslie for crying out loud.
