Breh was talented and pretty damn nimble for a big dude, tho.


Honestly, one of the best passing big men I've ever seen.


When I was a kid, he was actually the first NBA player I ever saw in public.


Me and the fam was at this restaurant called "The Spaghetti Factory"


And breh was in there boss hoggin.Huge trays of spaghetti, extra sauce, bread sticks...


We sat at a table about 10-15 ft away....I was just:krs: the whole time


because it was a surreal experience for me.Not long before that, I'd watched him do this





On a team with Barkley and Kevin Johnson, he was the best passer.


The game winning shot was actually designed for him to throw it off the backboard like that.


Oliver's my nicca.I always liked dude:obama:


:wow:

John Olerud was possibly the slowest baseball player I've seen in my life.

Mark Jackson was also a pretty terrible athlete.

Tom Brady is also a horrible athlete. But dude can play (obviously).

Hockey?? I forget how to spell his name, but Jeff Beukeboom, old defense man who played on a lot of good teams but could barely skate. He was known for being big, slow and very physical.
John Olerud was one of the best defensive 1st basemen of his era. He was agile as fukk.

yeah, Oliver Miller was athletic. He had great body control too.

Even Shawn Bradley was athletic.

You ever see him try to run the base pads? John Olerud was a running joke for awhile cuz he was slow as fukk.
I think people have to consider the position...at least in general terms.

I mean look, just strictly talking baseball players...it's basically cheating to list a catcher (for example) as someone who is "least athletic" since those guys tend to be heavier and not particularly fast (though many are agile and quick in other ways).

So to me it's like...who was the least athletic person in a position where speed/agility was most important?
In that context, you probably eliminate a lot of positions/players off the bat.

Even though there have always been plodding sluggers in boxing, "Butterbean" Eric Esch comes to mind for me.
Great entertainment though.

:hubie:
