By the way. Bradley was untalented, but:

He was first in blocks/game in '97 with 3.4.
Two times he had double figures in Blocks in consecutive games.

Size doesn't matter? Even with bad skills like his ones you can play amazing games. He even had a couple triple doubles.

It's not worth it, and would make the game worse. Everyone would clamor towards 7ft 6 guys just for their height rather than skills and the market would be terribly skewed. Rebounding and height correlation isn't very high past a certain point, the only real advantage a taller defender has is blocking but if you want such "realism" then most 7 ft+ guys will have foot problems and will get easily injured. For gaming fairness purposes, the current system is fine.

thats exactly how i think too. the lower divisions arent 'professional' but are just a bunch of z leagues.

the way to look at it is, if a 7'0 center has awful rebounding and he's up against a 5'11 center with awful rebounding, both these guys should have roughly equal rebounds. BB already takes into acount the height of the 7'0 guy and are basically saying that even with his height hes still that bad at rebounding. remember that talls guys already get a boost and if theyre that bad then its like that for a reasin.

On behalf of the thousands of teams in the lower divisions, I resent your characterization of our teams as "just a bunch of z leagues".

We play very competitive b-ball. Our players may not be the best shooters, or the best passers, or the best rebounders, or the best defenders, or be the best looking, but I can assure you they are pure of heart and sincere.

Your teams may beat ours by humiliating scores, but our players help little old ladies cross streets, never curse, and rarely smoke. After losing to a Div I squad (actually their second team) in a scrimmage, their players left the arena for the shady side of town for beers and to enjoy the company of loose women. In sharp contrast, my squad showered, put on their slightly worn and certainly dated suits and took their wives and children to their favorite mosque, church and synagogue.

"z leagues" indeed!
