Is Shawne Williams wearing #4 for the Mavs?

Everything Shawn Bradley accomplished on the basketball court was due to his freakish size. He had ZERO basketball skill. Considering he was 7'6 you would expect him to be able to score double digit points a game, but maybe at a better shooting percentage than the typical 6'4 shooting guard. His usual percentage of 45% shooting is abysmal for anybody playing center, even more so when you're half a foot taller than most of the guys guarding you. 8 rebounds a game is pretty pathetic, again, when you're generally half a foot taller than the second tallest guy on the court.

And blocked shots are the most overrated stat in basketball. Amare gets a ton of blocks but nobody will honestly say he's a good defensive player. Plus there's a reason Bradley went for blocks - he didn't have the strength, footwork, or competence to play straight up defense on anybody in the post.

I watched more Mavs basketball in the 90's than virtually anybody on this board, I know that for sure, and I stand by my statement that Shawn Bradley is the worst basketball player ever.

Mark Cuban is an unappreciative, backstabbing bas . Plain and simple. Can't believe I supported that prick.

Shawne Williams had better ing live up to the legacy of #4.

You know, the weird thing about Bradley, is that ever so often, Nelson would put him in, and for like 4-5 minutes, he'd be the best player on the court. He'd block shots, he'd go down on the other end and score in bunches and be a beast. Then he'd go back to being a big back of suck for the other 90% of playing time. In small, small bursts mind you, but I think his problem is that he had no natural ap ude or affection for basketball, and he was pushed into it as a kid because he was so tall.

You're nuts. Flyin Ryan Bowen and Mark Madsen are worse players than Bradley could ever imagine being. At least the Mormon could shoot the midrange shot, and hit his free throws.

Ryan Bowen is the Germanator, and Mark Madsen at least hustles. Shawn Bradley was lazy, had a ty at ude, AND he sucked.

Ryan Bowen would kill Shawn Bradley in a one on one game. So would Mark Madsen (he'd over-hustle and Bradley would lose interest).

Either way, that would be some basketball nobody would want to watch.
