Mahmoud was a bad motherfucker!

He was hell in college, but for whatever reason, he never lived up to that hype at the NBA level.
He was fun to watch though!

Mahmoud was a bad motherfucker!

Not in the dunk contest. He's was just regular old boring Chris Jackson. Those where the most shamefully plain dunks ever. I think he or Tim Perry of 76er fame did the first lay up in dunk contest history.

Bismack:Best Case:A taller version of shawn kemp w/ better d. Worst Case:Adonyle Foyle Most Likely:A taller,more athletic version of Ben Wallace with better offense(in time)
Tyrus:Best Case:A poor man Lamarcus Aldridge Worst Case: Chris Wilcox w/ better D Most likely: Dale Davis(when he was good)
Gerald:Best Case:A poor man's kobe Worst Case:Martell Webster w/ better d. Most likely: Raja Bell w/ better offense.

i take one objection to comps. tyrus thomas. a player can't have comps in his 5th YEAR IN THE LEAGUE. to paraphrase dennis green "he is who we thought he was". here are his comps

Min: a lesser tyrus thomas enormously overpaid
Max: a slightly better tyrus thomas one approaching a worth of 8 million per year
most likely: tyrus thomas way overpaid
