    The one smart enough to bring a gun and quick enough to use it first.

    Brooks maybe? :p

    great idea for a thread! lol

    you guys have to remember, a lot of nba players have never been in a real fight. thats why they just push each other around. taking a big guy because he's really strong won't help if all he's gonna do is push. you need a guy who is willing to all out in a fight till the death!

    the only guy that crazy is ron artest!

    A 7'6 guy sure looks intimidating to me :grin: . I'll go with him :grin:

    For a non-rocket...I'll have to go with Arenas ;)

    Yao may have a history of a fragile foot.
    But an average size man, of 5'10 to 6'1, with no professional training would struggle with Yao I think.

    Check out Yao here. :grin:

    For past Rocket I might take David Andersen...in that altercation with Kidd he looked ****ing crazy. Crazy guys are the best fighters. Plus the dude's like 6'11. Artest is a good choice too I think.

    For non-Rocket gotta be Dwight Howard - he acts nice but dude looks like he can ****ing fight. Or maybe a young Jermaine O'Neal.

    Certainly not Rudy T.

    Probably Maxwell, Thorpe, Artest, Willis, or Barry.

    Bringing in Yao is too much of an injury risk. We still want him to play basketball afterwards, right?

    Let's not forget about Mutumbo. He can put a nasty gash on anyones face with those elbows.

    Current player would be Miller... because nobody is going to mess with me when I have a 7 footer that looks like the biker type with me.

    The one with the gun.


    I'd pick Vernon, but I think he's unavailable and visitation rights are limited.

    David Andersen... last year when he took it to Jason Kidd, I was scared for Kidd's life.

    Current Rox: Hayes -- he's immovable
    All-Time Rox: Artest -- he's big, crazy, and loyal (Honorable mention: Maxwell -- he's crazy)
    Current League: Artest
    All-Time League: Anthony Mason -- he's huge and freaky looking (Can you imagine him in a bar fight?)
