> What is it with Priest Lauderdale that attracts some of you?  Size alone isn't a passport to success in the NBA, talent is, and Lauderdale 
has little if any at all.  Think about it a minute.  He's 7'4", 345lbs,

block a shot sporadically, but will foul uncontrollably in his quest for 
a block.  Can you say Thomas Hamilton?
