You didn't really provide a great argument when someone countered with Hasheem Thabeet, though. All you said was that you remembered him being flipped over Blair's back, as if that negated everything that Hasheem did at the college level. People actually tried to have a reasonable discussion with you and you were overly defensive and dismissive right off the bat.
Yeah, not over my head, keep reading your dear Abby letters pal.
What ever, read every single post, don't come late to the party and go all Dr Phil. I have said and simply say, Emeka was an overall better talent, period. Also said would be nice to have more a typical PF/C type players with more of an overall game. I'm not here to debate or put down anyone, this is an opinion based board, like it, love it,hate it, who cares.. Don't read or reply but I'm all in for UCONN and this board for some reason likes to nit pick on anyone who disagrees with anyone"she opinion than their own.
And keep gracing us with more original compelling thoughts like "gawrsh guys I sure wish we could get more Emeka Okafors" (yes I have been reading your posts with a Goofy voice)
Again, nice thoughts guy. Love all the opinions, but on another note, you should apply for a job at Disney.
Nah man, and you should heed your own advice, as you're the one entertaining all of us; and you don't even realize you're doing it.
Yes, ok, I'll hire you, make sure you wear your Sunday best to the interview
Wrong.
Accept for the fact that he was completely correct. Hasheem scored more than 20 six times his junior year and was close to it on many occasions. Again, don't let facts get in the way of your fantasy based narrative.
Dude, seriously, he could have scored a thousand points for all I care. Emeka was the better all around player period, I know HT was better than what we have had, but you and everyone else are the ones living in fantasy land if you think he was a complete player like Okafor was. Again demonstrated by the longevity of his NBA career, Emeka never saw the D League, end of story. I'm done debating this with you and everyone else, it's getting old and frankly I've got better things to do. Bottom line, my hope/wish/desire is we land a big man who we can run some plays through, can hold their own on the block and looks like an intelligent basketball player vs a lost puppy. I hope you have a splendid day my fellow Husky , remember we are all on the same side... Go Huskies!!!!
Again your lawyer skills need sharpening, I actually said we haven't had a player with all the tools a big man should have like Okafor . After that, I said Thabeet wasn't as good as Okafor as others debated. I said I actually liked HT and he had skills, again, I'm a UCONN fan like everyone else and an alumni. Opinions are what they are, facts are facts, law 101. What can be proven is Okafor was a better talent overall and that's a fact . My other point is we haven't had that type of player since he left, deal with that fact as well. Have a splendid day counselor .
Again, don't care about those guys or their stats, only Ok and Th. Yes, agree, just want a good big man brother is all. Be well.
He is an absolute clown. It's gotten to the point where I'm not sure if he knows he's been proven wrong and just refuses to admit it or if he's actually convinced himself that he's right.
Wrong. Gentlemen......please stay. You morons beat it.
Get a life dude, you and everyone else if you think I give a darn what you or anyone else thinks..
That was like the least critical post of you in the last couple of pages. What was that response for?
With the general style of posting and the emerging frequent use of "dude," I think we have been arguing with a teenager. So I think we ought to just let him be.
He's 21 maybe 22, thus the '94' in his Boneyard handle.
Seems more likely to me that 94 is the year he graduated or something else.
