what are you like the world's foremost Luc Longley expert?

Found this, presented without comment.

well he doesn't live that far from me and my brother used to bump into him at his work.

Always used to see Lily at the local basketball, she really was eye catching.
I mean, she would dress up in nice dresses that showed just enough skin and she's about 6'3, so you couldnt miss her

Yeah, just wanted to echo having a fun time doing this. Had a hard time deciding between Durant and Curry but ultimately went with Durant for his ability to slide to the 4 and overall defensive ability.

I made the pick right before I left for the day and actually confused the season that Durant qualified for stone hands. Thought it was the year he only played 27 games. Oh well.

I'm interested to see how rosters get filled out later on in the draft.

excuse me, we're having a conversation here.

How did I forget Darko Milicic as a white stiff.

Of course, you know I'm joking James

You know its all gone wrong when you can barely get a run in with the Townsville Crocodiles.

Found this hilarious on their wikipedia

"In February 2016, the Queensland Police seized a compressed air launcher use by the team for over ten years to launch folded T-shirts into the crowd, after the device was deemed to be a category B weapon."

Next Scavenger Hunt draft will definitely have an Australian player category - born in Oz, played high school/college in Oz, or citizenship in Oz.

I still remember how great was the match-up of the titans between Ostertag and Longley, when i watched NBA game for the 1st time.
Ostertag vs Longley >>> Malone vs Rodman. :P

Then I tried to search Ostertag on youtube and I found a lot of videos of him...

A lot videos of he gets dunked on :(

that is funny and Queensland is the gun mad state of Australia, they are our equivalent of the great south in the US.
Hence why they vote in this lovely lady.

when I started respecting Longley more was when they started him on Malone, who managed to cover pretty well, which enabled Pippen to matchup against Ostertag but instead he just roamed around and completely destroyed Utah's offence

Longley is a smart guy, Ostertag? Not so much.

I pick David Robinson with the Southpaw category. 93-94 season, averages of 30-11-5-1-3, second in the MVP voting to Hakeem who I already have.

I'll have to get into this more when I have the actual roster in place but I'm making the bet that the two of them can figure it out. Both of them are freak athletes so facing smaller fours on defense shouldn't be a problem.

Robinson was just way too good for me to pass him by.
