Seven foot white kid that rarely plays ... can't think of the name- I think it is Swift.

It's too bad because he made some nice improvement over the summer. He definitely shook the Opie look.

Robert Swift of the sonics. Also Chase Budinger at Az would have done it had it not been for the new rule.

Robert Swift is one of the biggest uncoordinated stiffs I've ever seen play.

It's seriously hilarious to watch him up close. The guy can barely walk and chew gum at the same time. One of the worst first round picks the Sonics could have ever made. Ever.

Just an awful basketball player.

Maybe his first season, but he's made progress his last season and then through the summer before blowing out his knee. He won the starting job. He won't be Bynum but he'll be serviceable and better than Rafa.

If progress = still sucking very very very bad then yeah I'll agree with you.

He'll never last in the league. He's a retarded Paul Mokeski.

I don't think you've seen very much of him then. We'll see how he responds after this injury. If he works half as hard to get back as he did from last year to this season then he could have a nice career. But let's see how he recovers.

I have seen plenty up close several games in a row in the Rocky Mountain Revue...and he sucks. Flat out embarrasingly awful.

You and I just aren't going to agree on this.
