The Eight Foot Two Schlub

[David Sklansky]

Its almost beneath me to get this lazy and exploitive of previous threads, that are bringing some others close to blows, but with the Bellagio tournament going on I'm going to broach the obvious follow up question to the 8.3 sprinter.

A slightly above average guy, athletically speaking, 30 years old, wakes up one morning 35% bigger in all directions. Eight foot two inches, 200 kilos. He maintains his medicocre athletic ability (which breaks the laws of physics, I know, but don't go there). He can easily dunk on his tiptoes but his vertical leap still probably makes his outstretched hands only slightly higher than the best NBA players. Does he start?
