DIS Dads The DIS Dad's Club X: Por favor mantengase alejado de las puertas

[AirGoofy]

Giggity. Ownage.

Chamberlain would have destroyed Shaq.
The only center that deserves to be mentioned in the same breath with Wilt is Bill Russell. Wilt was every bit as strong as Shaq - in addition to his lower body strength, he had amazing hand strength. He could "pop" a basketball by squeezing it between his hands. And beyond his remarkable strength, Wilt also saw the whole court unlike any center other than Russell (and perhaps Bill Walton). He actually led the league in assists one year.

I would also argue that Wilt actually faced MORE quality true centers than Shaq did. Wilt played in an era when there were far fewer teams, and while the sheer number of quality centers may have been smaller, he didn't get to play the kind of stiffs that Shaq got to pad his stats against every few games. Chamberlain played against Willis Reed, Nate Thurmond, Bill Russell, Zelmo Beatty, Wes Unseld, Elvin Hayes, Walt Bellamy, Lew Alcindor, Clyde Lovellette - a virtual who's who of the NBA Hall of Fame.

One of those things we will never know. Different time and different rules. Shaq had the muscle and the weight and athleticism to power thru Chamberlain. As for padding stats, who did Wilt get his 100 points against? Was it Russell? Too bad the team missed all those shots for him to rebound and put back.

Wilt will always have Conan the Barbarian and 10,000 women.

This is what I'm saying. While we won't ever get to see Shaq and Wilt go head-to-head, the assumption that Shaq is stronger than Wilt was is not such an easy assumption. Shaq was certainly fatter. But Shaq also played at a time when he was essentially allowed to foul with impunity as long as he was on offense.

Shaq was also a poor defensive player. Chamberlain was always at least above average on defense, and made NBA All-Defensive team near the end of his career (when the style his team played called on him to play the kind of defense that got him all-defensive team recognition).

I was a big Shaq fan. He was one of the best of his era. But he's not even in the top 5 NBA centers of all time. I'd put Chamberlain, Russell, Jabbar, Olajuwon, and David Robinson all in front of him. And Walton is close. Shaq is only in front of Walton because Walton's career was cut short by injury.

Long day at work, finished two customer sites (a third last night), and we're moving stuff tomorrow to storage so we can sell our house and get a smaller place.

Whee!

In other news we're still going to Disney in Nov so there's that to look forward to!

The last page i read was 128, so I apologize.
BUT, I don't care right now.

The VP of my department (my boss) called me into her office today. I've been there 6 yrs, but still, when you get called into the boss's office at 9 am on Friday, you get nervous.

"boB, we're promoting you. You team is changing, so, we need you to be the leader in title, as well as in practice"
On my team of 10, there is 1 Account Manager (the team leader, as it were), Senior Account Coordinator (If the AM manages the client, the SAC manages the team members), and 8 Account Coordinators.
For 6 years, I've been patiently waiting for "my turn", and while always letting the powers know i'm interested in more, I've never let it get me down when people newer than I were moving up faster.

But none of that matters right now. I'm the NEW Senior Account Coordinator.

It's announced, but the old S.A.C. will train me until she takes a different internal position on June 13.

I've got my Balvenie 12 yr

Thanks guys! I'm pretty stoaked.
