    So I am Mobley's Mum, but live in Australia and scout Ozzys for the NBA
    As far as can remember there have been 5 Aussies in the NBA and 2 currently
    Longley-puts the role into role player
    Anstey-never actually thought he was that good in Australia, only started playing competitive ball in Australia 3 years before he got into NBA, used to be a good tennis player, and the only reason he is in the nba is he is mobile for a 7 footer, but geez he is soft
    Other to make it to NBA rosters are
    Shane Heal-Twolves
    Andrew Gaze-Seaton Hall, Wizards, Spurs
    Paul Rogers-Was on the Raptors roster last year but injured, a much better big man than Anstey and proves the right place at right time theory about getting into the NBA
    Another example is Rick Brunson- Who was the import for my team in our national league, he wasn't that special, used to get pts in first and last quarters and thats it, no assists and gets cut and then gets on Portlands bench and now on the Knicks rosters.
    Others Aussies to watch out for
    CJ Bruton-pg drafted by blazers a couple of years ago
    Sam MacKinnon-althletic SF
    Simon Dwight-was offered a 3 yr contract by the Hornets a couple of years ago and knocked it back saying he wasn't ready, what a clown
    Ben Melmeth-big man who played for a couple of year at Uni of Utah.

    As for other predictions, I think
    Jeff Blake is Jeff Blake
    RockHEAD is an ex-commentator
    Clutch is some ex player, maybe Sampson
    Also Heypartner may well be an escaped prisoner from the coach mental institution or he could just be Kenny Smith

    Heypartner cant be Kenny Smith unless everytime he's not on TV he is on a laptop in the cc.net chat room b/c he is always in there during games.

    HeyPartner couldn't be Kenny. First of all, HP understands something about Defense, in which Kenny, while he was here, was couldn't guard a telephone booth.

    Dr. of Dunk is actually Rodman.

    RocketMan Tex,

    I bet you got called for a foul on that clean block of LunkHead, especially since the game was at The Gahden.

    Sorry Finn*boy, that picture is the REAL-DEAL-HOLYFIELD. (And by the way there was a lot of people who could block Larry.)

    RocketMan Tex,

    The only thing flagrant about that clean block is that you dis-ed the homeboy in his own crib [​IMG] I bet afterwards you wished you had actually flagrantly fouled the LunkHead (of course then you would have probably got a fine and a suspension to boot).

    I do have a question that only you can answer. Did you and the Rockets ever get called for an illegal pass on the play where the guard at the top of the key would "miss" his shot a good foot to the right of the basket (off the glass) and where you got the "rebound" and put back? That was a great play for you. You got credit for the rebound, the basket, and bump in your shooting percentage [​IMG]

    take care,
    No Worries

    There is nothing illegal about bouncing the ball off the backboard.

    I keep hoping a Season Ticket Salesperson would show up. I'm a first yr season ticket holder. I have a bribe for you for first in line at upgrades this off-season.

    For any fakers, Click n Clack have already fooled me. I will not write my seat request on the back of a hundred dollar bill and send it to you.

    For a real salesperson, let my friends and I have a shot at livening up the oil stiffs and their trophy wives. You know I've done my duty through propping up tickets values at clutchcity, by not allowing any tanking or other negativity to propogate. You know nobody faces the "Trade 'em All and Fire the Coach" tantrums like I do (aside from LHutz), or gives more bared-soul soliloquys about why I'm a Rockets fan (aside from CBrownFanClub), or delivers more sleep-deprived delusional drivel on fanaticism (aside from Mantronix), or can carry the burden of evangelizing Barkley's ego and filling his void as step-matt martyr for the malodorous mantra of his detractors.

    Please powers that be who secretly monitor our beloved bbs for fan morale while floating trial ballons of incognito reconnaissance, please put me at the head of the upgrade list. I will not fail you.

    Lobo, I hope you're not a rockets season ticket salesperson.
