Mark, do you think the right coach could turn him into a Rodman type forward?

No but considering his crazy behavior, with the right amount of hair dye and piercings he has the potential to be an off the court Rodman.

The equivalent of Tom Hagan in the Godfather, it's a clinical practice, you only have one client, and it's a full time job.

Curious to see how this plays out. Unlike many others, I never felt that CO was NBA material. He did little to enhance his chances during his time in college. IMO his lack of skills and size being more of a detriment than his prior behavioral issues. We shall see.

Yes, Stef, I do think so
I think Pat Riley could do it but I'm not convinced that Spolestra can

He's one of the most natural shot blockers I've ever seen. If he could add one more thing to that equation maybe he sticks. Wouldn't be the weirdest thing ever. It might be close, but not the weirdest.

Rodman was, first and foremost, an unnatural rebounder. Not to mention an incredible athlete who got up and down the floor like lighting. He could have been the most energetic basketball player I have ever seen. CO has no offensive game at all, is not much of a rebounder and is extremely undersized(in both height and girth) for an NBA center or even PF. Which will essentially negate his one talent, his shot blocking ability. I just remember how small he seemed when he went up against the likes of Ochefu or the big kid from St. Mary's. As LJSA said, weirder things have happened, but I don't see this one happening.

Ok who's CO fan who felt the need to knock down my karma after my last comment? I gotta be honest, I find the whole karma thing simply a useful tool for cowards.

Does anyone pay attention to that? Is it like Darymond Green---with enough of them you get a suspension? Could have been me. I use an iPad and accidentally hit things by accident all the time. Gotta be careful on porn sites.

I honestly could care less about my karma. I never think to hit the karma button for anyone one way or the other. If I like what someone says I hit the "thank you" button, if I even remember. Just happened to notice the negative karma after my CO comment, and of course got a few more after my coward comment. Although I have noticed some long time posters getting hammered. So clearly there are losers on here who have nothing better to do than to target those posters and continuously hit their negative karma. Pretty pathetic if you ask me. This should be good for a whole slew more negative karmas. lol.

I thought no ... but apparently Monte does. Monte, on a day when the market drops 600 points, there are far more important things to rattle your cage ... although I admit it is frustrating not to know who's hitting that button.

Thankfully I have very little in the stock market, although definitely much less today than yesterday. I haven't even looked. To busy worrying about karma lol

I pay attention. Currently Monte is on Double Secret Probation because of his wild antics and low Karma.

Monte, your karma is awesome!

PS I did hit you with a negative just for fun. If I do so every day I might get you close to me by winter 2017.
