That's like saying Kobe is probably the closest to Shaq. Oh and Hakeem did not get retarted powerups.


Mystic Gohan is the strongest fools


Pfftt yeah... except Lebron keeps finding a way to screw himself.

Maybe if Lebron didn't bring his talents down to Satan City and trained his ass off, he might have a case.

Instead, Gohan had not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5, not 6...not 7...wins over a major DBZ boss despite being the strongest. If it weren't for the combined fusion of Wade and Bosh unlocking Lebron's talents, he might not have won a ring next season.

No coach. No GM. Probably no star. I swear, in my 23 years of following this team, I can't name a stranger time than this moment to be a supporter of the Magic.

Can I get some RealGM reviews of Dragonball GT please

Does Nate Robinson make it to SSJ form or does Mr Popo just take him out again?

OT: During the NBA draft the most consistent critique seemed to be that most players were too thin. I think too much muscle adds to your skills because you look more favorable as a prospect. If you're not doing conditioning then forget it.

Who wins the jump ball??

Everytime an NBA player screams and growls after a highlight dunk or block, it was because of DBZ.
Michael Phelps turned SSJ once during the Olympics too.

Goku has the height and wingspan, but Vegeta has more heart. This would give him the edge in loose ball scenarios.

Obviously.

I'm also hoping for a Dragonball GT review. This thread got me motivated to watch DBZ again, but should I go all out and watch GT?

Yes, too much muscle can mess up a player's speed and explosiveness. That's why Artest wanted to lose weight this past year so he could keep up with the faster forwards in this league.

Hey honest question I'm a junior in high school, i'm 5'11 and pretty scrawny about 140. Should I focus on getting bigger or getting more skilled to play better?

Get bigger and more athletic, seriously. There's a difference between being well built, and too bulky. Being scrawny has no advantages. Eat big and lift heavy, and your entire life will change for the better.
