    I see you've actually never met one person in real life with Aspergers. They are not all the same....by a long shot....but I can assure you that he does not have Aspergers.

    This is coming from someone who has 2 family members with Aspegers, a low-functioning autistic cousin and works everyday with people on various places on the spectrum.

    Judging from your threads and comments....I'm actually fairly certain you might have Aspergers. And that's not a joke.

    Really? My son was diagnosed and there is no similarities. People with Aspergers are actually highly intelligent people. Example Albert Einstein had Aspergers. A little socially awkward in some situations but able to pass an SAT. If you were half as intelligent you would not start threads like this. Could it be that you have a learning disability? Just a thought....

    Asperger syndrome (AS), also known as Asperger's syndrome or Asperger disorder, is an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) that is characterized by significant difficulties in social interaction, alongside restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior and interests.

    I would say that that the op has "significant difficulties in social interaction" based on the responses to this thread. It's also apparent that the op has "restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior and interests" based on his thread starting history(prettiest nba player, dribbling between legs,etc). OP has aspergers.

    I wonder why he bricks so many jumpers and freeze at the free throw line late in the game. Debrick Froze.

    It's just speculation that Einstein had Aspergers, the tests for it were created way after his death and he could never be diagnosed on anything like autism or Aspergers. Some say guys like him or Newton were a socially inept and that's it, there's a lot of people in society that don't bond well with others and are just shy or seem awkward because of anxiety.

    Agree with your point though, many of these people are highly intelligent and this thread is stupid.

    If Rose has Aspergers, then Aspergers is overrated and we should stop worrying about treating it.

    I always have the same reaction when reading these threads. I read and say, "what the...?" Then I look at the thread starter, and I see a handle I've seen pop up more and more when I have this "what the..." reaction.

    I'd tell you to stop, but I've already done that I think. But on the other hand, it's entertaining reading the reactions to your threads. So I like that aspect of them.

    Nope, I've seen Yao and Duncan shoot and hit at least one 3ptr. But I do wonder if you dunk from the 3 pt line if it still counts as 3 points.

    Even if Shaq has that syndrome when he's inside and has the ball then there's really nothing that can be done. Even Dwight would be utterly destroyed.
