Sean Elliott

He got Patrick.

He got Akeem.

He got all the big guys.

Mark Eaton, who's 7'5".

I mean, he got all the big dudes.

Oh, he'd have his ass on the bench right away.

With some sailor, not sailor language, Air Force, you know, drill sergeant language.

I mean, Pop, you know, the thing is, it wouldn't be just...

Pop.

I mean, it would have been Avery Johnson.

Avery Johnson would have been in Big Dave if he was out there shooting three balls.

I mean, what we're seeing from him is just unnatural.

It really is.

But I don't think that's even the strong suit of his game.

I think it was a guy like Dirk who really started to get guys to try to stretch the floor a little bit more, big guys to try to stretch the floor.

Now, we had guys back in the day, Bill Ambir could shoot it.

I always refer to Jack Sigma on our telecast and the way he could shoot the ball from the outside.

Sabonis could as well, but Dirk really took that to a different level with Dirk.

his ability to go outside and drag big guys away from the basket and then everybody wanted to be dirk and that's what i would say the telecast you know every big guy steps in the league wants to be dirk davidsky but not everybody's dirk davidsky and so you have a lot of guys out there shooting a lot of three balls

uh and they're really uh negating their height advantage because they're all out everybody's the same size outside the three-point line doesn't matter if you're six four or seven foot five uh you all become guards out there and so uh some guys can do it uh some guys can't and some guys shouldn't even try
