Shaq Carter - Can he shoot?

Here's another idea. Let's pack 70 pounds on him and make him into a 3-point shooting power forward. We can do this one of two ways: steak, or strapping a 4th grader to his leg.

I think they've been force feeding that kid protein since he got here. His metabolism is just insane, being a lanky 6'10" guy that can run all day and never look tired.
 
There are not such finite rules. Depends on what offense you run.

What percentage of successful college basketball teams are playing with 4s and 5s who are limited offensively? I'll bet less than 10%.

There is a shot clock. There is not a lot of time to reverse and go inside and out on every possession (this is why the game is going to sh!t and i'd rather watch hockey sometimes).

We havent had an offensively skilled 4 in a long time. We havent been good offensively in a long time. Not coincidence.
