He didn't play too often, but he could definitely block shots.

It's kind of like the Ricky situation, except Ricky's mistake didn't cost his team a National Championship.

The man they tried to replace with Rex Walters after he died. That was a terrible draft! Anyway, here's another one, anyone know how many points he scored for the WORLD record for points scored in a professional game? He did it in a Czech league game in the late 80's. (Hint: It was a buttload more than Wilt's 100)
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting 44Thrilla:</div><div class="quote_post">Petrovic scored 112 points in a Croatian League game. (84/85) 40 of 60 from the field.</div> Croatian sorry, I didn't mean to say Czech, clearly he isn't Czech anyway. But yep, you sure are right. When I worked at the Hall of Fame, that was one of the facts we had to know to defend his selection into the Hall. That one pissed off every real fan. I disagree, America isn't the only damn place that plays basketball in the world. The man was a God in Europe. But whatever, that's just me.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting kingrex:</div><div class="quote_post">Anybody want Shawn Bradley? </div> Wow, good point, I don't know how he was overlooked. That man is a walking piece of paper, when that huge contract expires, someone is gonna be awfully excited about having him hang around for a season. What does he make a year? All I know is that it's too much. I can't believe how long a career he's had. When he was first drafted, was there a person in the league who was excited about having him around? And now that he's lived up to that hype, maybe he'll just fade away in another season. One can only hope.
