Briggs - I've spent my entire life wishing I were a sensational 6-9 PF with a 7-7 wingspan and incredible athleticism. The freak player part I had down but unfortunately not the good kind of freak.

Do you have these fantasies man? You must if you get so drawn to these guys. In my dreams I was like a Connie Hawkins or Spencer Haywood guy. Maybe a little James Worthy or Shwn Marion thrown in.

You? I'd like to be able to use my right arm to be honestthat would be nice--try typing a post with your off-hand without the use of the other one. I still shoot left-handed Fts almost every day with my kid. If I had my fantasy, I would be a scout or a part of a team behind the scenes that helped put teams together.
I'll leave the Shawn Marion fantasies to the kids:>)

I agree Briggs, being a scout would definately be a very cool fantasy for me. I'm still young but I know dreaming about being in the NBA or MLB are pointless now becuase its not realistic. To be a scout though, that would be sweet.

BTW Briggs, while I hardly ever do I agree with you and I mean HARDLY, I certainly respect you. I think its fantastic that even though you cant you use your right arm that you still can get out with your son. If he doesn't realize what that means today, he's certainly going to realize it someday and when he does he's gonna be proud of what you do day in and day out and be so happy to know that you were still able to get out with him.

- Marv. I think 2 players did it the year he died AND they shot them lefty in the NCAA tournament. Quite a show of respect for the late Great.
