Hibbert?

[Superbone]

Amen, preach on! BC's constant moaning about the Suns lack of big men is exhausting.

The Good Lord only see's fit to put so many 6'10''+ guys who can run, jump and shoot on the planet at one time, the Suns have never been lucky enough to acquire any of them, but it's not for the lack of trying.

Everyone wants a talented big guy, that's why teams will convince themselves injuries aren't so bad and do things like Oden over Durant. Getting a franchise big guy is MUCH easier said than done, and sadly the Suns were just a coin flip away from landing the guy who was perhaps the best ever.

Twice they were right there. The second time was when they got the consolation prize Armen Gilliam instead of David Robinson.

But don't they already have Splitter?

God I'm funny.

I've posted like 12 times on this thread, they just show up like Hibbert does in big games.

You know you are a converted Splitter fan.

So, to be sure I understand you ... are you saying that Rich Kelley was a more talented center than Roy Hibbert?

No, he was more of a Center than Alvan Adams, who locked up the Center position for a decade.

With the exception of the old Shaq experiment, our Suns never tried to dominate opposing Centers. Not under MacLeod and not during the past almost-25 years.
