well actually i just remember playing him in a Sega Genesis Olympic Basketball game and he would light it up! haha. I dont think he was 6'10 maybe 6'6 or so....I guess i never watched him play but heard his name so much. If you dont think he was good then that doesnt say much for Aussie basketball....

Agreed..............the starting line up from most NBL teams is american exports who couldnt make it to the NBA after their college careers.

No where near the league of Tim Duncan which you eluded to early. But with Jordan, average big men where enough.

Bill Cartright did however have a beautiful shooting form though

LeBron is the real deal...but he shouldnt even be mentioned in the same breath as Jordan or even Kobe....however if the Cavs dont get swept and actually win this thing...i might start comparing him...LeBron is mr Take it to the hole...if he can beat the Spurs with his J-Shot...then were talking he's Elite...dunking on everyone is nothing special..it looks nice...but nothing is like pulling up from distance and sinking it deep...

Agreed, he's got a lot of potential just needs to work on that jay and hitting a higher percentage of FT. If he can perform in the finals like D-Wade did, then the league will be in a great spot. Still for some reason out of the current players, I think Wade has a better all around asthetic game comparable to Kobe.

And that my friends is why Lebron is not as good as MJ. I believe James still needs more work.

At only 22yrs of age, I'll have to agree with you on that. Don't forget the fact that he was up against the best defense in the league, so that performance last night wasn't all that surprising. In time though, I think games are going to be a lot more fun to watch in the NBA with the emergence of LB, D-Wade, and Kobe reaching his prime.

That Gibson kid is surprising a lot of people.

Reason why I say this , yes obviously he is young, but he made a lot of mistakes that were on him. I cant count the number of times he got caught in the air with the ball in his hand. Also the time he was just looking at the ball when he dribbled right into the defender looked bad. He needed to pull up on a jumper to much, seemed like he had no range on any jumper he took. SA has a tough defense, but he could of played it a whole lot differently. Gibson needs to be a starter lead all cavs with 16 as a rookie, no FT attempts.

He defentily doesnt' have that aggressive mentality that alot of the greats develeped. His reliance on the pull up jay was a huge downfall on his part. He doesn't have that smooth jumpshot capablity that made them look so easy when MJ performed them(everyday). Maybe he'll develop that eventually, who knows. But when you have a defense bumping you everytime you have the ball in your hands and your force to play to a weakness then the game will never turn out good.
