      <![CDATA[Two things:<br>
<br>
1) Today on the Vernon show Vaccaro stated that 20 GMs stated that the Grizz now have a very valuable asset to trade; Conley.<br>
<br>
2) There was a new article on SI.com( <a href="http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/ian_thomsen/05/22/weekly.countdown/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writ&hellip;</a> ) where the writer stated that his understanding of Fegan's comments were that he did not want Rubio in Memphis IF the Grizzlies were committed to Conley.<br>
<br>
I think we will end up seeing the Grizz trade Conley on draft night and end up with either Jordan Hill or DeJuan Blair.<br>
<br>
My hope would be the Grizz see just how much the Blazers want Conley.<br>
<br>
Conley, Gay, Grizz 2010 1st rd pick<br>
for<br>
Aldridge, Outlaw<br>

We can always trade Rubio or Conley later in the year.

      <![CDATA[That is an interesting point about really tall players being injury prone and I have heard it before, but am not entirely convinced by it. Of the top of my head, the guys that are the most physiologically similar to Thabeet are Mark Eaton, Mutombo, Yao, Ilgauskas and Rik Smits.

      <![CDATA[First off, I am absolutely terrified of Heisley making ANY decisions unrelated to sheet metal, but I doubt that Wallace and Hollins will let Thabeet get drafted after they see Rubio is his element at the ACB playoffs. The other report, that Rubio wants to play in LA, is more encouraging than anything else in my opinion.

      <![CDATA[I just don't get the appeal of Thabeet. He was taken to the woodshed by a smaller (much more skilled) Dejuan Blair multiple times and he has never shown any glimmer of offensive hope.

      <![CDATA[I suggested Thabeet would be a Theo Ratilff-level player, so I wasn't predicting he'd be a bust. I brought up the track record of 7'3"-plus players because there seems to be something physiological about players that tall and being injury prone when trying to play NBA-level basketball.

I didn't say anything in that post that criticized Rubio, and if you read my post, it is obvious that I prefer Rubio to Thabeet. I agree with you that it is not fair to criticize Rubio because other European players have been busts.

Dražen Petrovi&#263; never made an All-star game but he is in the Hall of Fame. But all of the Spanish NBA guys have been fairly successful some more than others obviously.

      <![CDATA[I agree 100% with the general theme of the post, but don't know about some of the details.<br>
You mention the sketchy history of players taller than 7'3'', but you could probably say the same thing about European guards. Has there ever been a European guard who wasn't playing with Tim Duncan that made an All-Star team?
