Default Re: The Eight Foot Two Schlub

No.
Based on the fact that he would not be fit enough, in terms of both anaerobic, short burst activities or in terms of having the stamina/endurance to last a full game. Neither would he have more than a rudimentary grasp of the other key skills involved in basketball - dribbling, passing etc....

Also, although I assume this was not what you were getting at, he may not know the rules of the game and is unlikely to be familiar with game tactics/strategy.

In short, the one positive characteristic - being very tall, would almost definately not compensate for the negatives in every other area.
