    Amazing...19 responses...one man 'gets' it.

    Personally fellas---it's too early to tell. I used to think he'd be good, not great, but good because of his height and tools.

    But Kwame has great tools too---but a messed up head. Thats not to say Ming has a messed up head---it's to say we don't know what his response to the league will be---same as any rookie.

    I know one thing: As he's following in the footsteps of a great center, that center should be there for him---on the bench or in the front office.

    I agree with ya Big M. Lots of contradicting fools out there. Ming played in the 2000 Olympics against our Dream Team. He guarded the likes of Alonzo Mourning and the rest of the crew.

    Fair go, GB has almost 2000 posts! That's not a 'troll'.

    I have come to enjoy GB's Bulls perspective actually:)

    :D

    Someone recognizes my greatness.


    I think however, that there are a lot of people in this thread that I shall talk to clutch about banning...given my 'seniority' and all. :)

    Here I'll disagree. Olajuwon would be of no use in this case. He never helped the younger players as the "positive role model" type, doling out wisdom and game know-how. It is a shame we can't have a true passing of the torch, but it wouldn't have happened anyway.
