Fine, I can't say for certain that any of the "unproven" candidates (EG Cho) are going to be better than KP. They might be - but I admit I don't know. Honestly, I would prefer the Blazers go this direction, as the potential reward is greater. As for the retreads, you can make a case for Thorn being better, and Pfund is a bit of a mystery (was he just Riley's gopher, or was he really a key player?) I would be fine with Warkentein - but he is supposedly not a candidate. Ferry, Kiki, and Knight don't impress me. Who am I missing? Again, the key word is "available". Petrie, Presti, Buford, Morely, et al don't qualify.
Dear God man, nobody is arguing with you regarding the tallness of 7 footer's Like I said. Par for the course.
I definitely think they should consider Bobby Riggs for this position. I think he might be dead though... if that matters. barfo
