    I tell you, the NBA is simply riddled with 7 foot three point specialists...

    Why would we need a seven footer who can shoot 3s? How does that benefit our team?

    I think he was trying to say, "How can we get Dirk Nowitski" (unless he knows of any other 7 footers that can shoot threes), but he didn't want to sound like a complete dumbass, so he starts this thread that makes him look like only half a dumbass...

    Why 7 footer? You have special taste eh? :confused:

    We just need a pure 3 pt shooter who can play defense. A combination of Glen Rice and James Posey would be great. :)

    I believe Sabonis and Wang Zhi Zhi can also shoot 3s. But I don't see why the Rockets would need either one.

    Since zone coming in NBA, short SF and SG become more and more difficult on offense.

    Mehmet Okur of the Detroit Pistons can shoot threes. Also Vladimir Radmanovic (but he is not exactly a seven-footer)

    Boki seems like a nifty player. It's amazing how the Marvs give that French rookie so much time playing on meaningful minutes already and Boki is still on the bench playing with his hair most of the time.

    By the way did anyone hear Bill Walton mentioned during last night game that Donnie Nelson may look for a head coaching job next season?:D
