I'll guess we'll let the next 10 years be the judge of
Telfair. But I think he still has some good
basketball left in him. Brandon Roy? Wake me when he
makes the All-Star team. ROY in a weak draft ain't
shit.
As for Big Baby, he measured 6'7" and 3/4 in his bare
feet, and 6'9" and 1/4 in his shoes. That's no
tweeener. And he's apparently dropped 40 pounds. And
he has a 7 foot wingspan. And 12 percent body fat.
His weight may have scared team off; but he's anything
but fat. He's just big. But he's also nimble and
quick and using any measuring device availabe, he's
virtually identical to Jeff Green except in girth
(look at both's stats and measurements).
