    I'd have to vote for Bradley too. It's the combination of his 7 foot 6 inch frame and frail body that create gravity defying layups where his feet get 5 inches off of the ground. And we cant forget how exciting it is when much smaller players block his feeble attempts at dunks. We salute you Shawn Bradley, and remember: First is the worst, Second is the <u>best</u>.

    Maybe the 18% of the people who took the poll mistakenly thought it was about the plays he was involved with were most exciting... like when any of the other guys on that poll are throwing one on top of his 7'6" skinny dome. [​IMG]

    Is he still starting in place of an injured Damp?

    I thought it was pure comedy myself. I didnt know people took it seriously? Hey maybe if Bradley realizes he is such a laughing stock he will pick up his game a bit ...... [​IMG]

    For a moment I thought there was a different Shawn Bradley in the NBA that I didnt know of when I saw the polls, but I couldnt resist voting for him anyway!! What a joke...

    I'll bet Mavs fans will be glad to get him back in the starting lineup. Thanks.

    LOL, WhiteManCantJump had the best posts in here. LOL @ gravity defying layups. But come one who else could make Earl Watson look like MJ? Don't hate, join in on the posterizations!

    Very true, the whole nba should thank Bradley for making them look a whole lot better than they are. Personally I think Bradley has some sort of magic aura around him. People who could never jump just seem to take off and fly over him any time they want. Maybe i should start hanging around him too [​IMG]

    Yet another glowing article about Bradley from SI.com...These SI writers are crazy.. Bradley may have tipped 'em or something. [​IMG]

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">

    Shawn Bradley
    Some might consider 48 minutes of Bradley to be more like 48 minutes of hell.

    Not me.

    Have you ever watched a movie you know isn't the greatest -- it might even be outright terrible -- but you still watch it over and over for whatever reason? Mine's Ishtar. Despite starring two legendary actors in Dustin Hoffman and Warren Beatty, Ishtar was thrashed by the media and widely considered one of cinema's biggest flops. But I can't get enough. Watching two stars struggle through their not-so-funny lines was so awkward it actually became funny.

    A little like Shawn Bradley.

    The Dallas "center" is so awkward he's entertaining. I have nothing against the guy personally. He's a family man. Very nice guy. But it's drop-dead funny to watch the guy run down the court, hit someone with one of his flailing elbows, or, if lucky, go up for a dunk.

    Bradley's 11.1 minutes per game just aren't enough for me. Give me 48 minutes of Shawn Bradley, and I'm a Mavericks season ticket holder. OK, maybe not, but it beats Ishtar.
