    The guy has some vision problems, and lack some confidence. He better play in China to get his confidence back.

      How is 6'8, 240 too small to play in the post. It wasn't too small 30 years ago when post play actually existed so it definitely is not too small for the current NBA.

          magic had a 10 yr career. and he won a title right out the gate like tyson. he dominated the 80s just like tyson.

          his prime was cut short, just like tyson
          Tyson served less than 3 years in prison.
          And he did lose and became a nodoby. Any notable wins after his prison stint? Another fight with Frank Bruno lol.

          Magic lost in 81 and 86 to the eventual NBA Finals opponent for the Celtics. But ... Magic also has 5 championships in the 80s the most. And is usually considered the best player in the 80s.

          Tyson is not usually considered the best boxer of the 80s ... most popular. Possibly.

            There aren't many Hall of fame 4s or 5s that height for a reason. Some have been able to do well but like I said, his problems are wah more than that.

              His post skills couldn't translate to the NBA because he was too small to play in the post in the NBA. Therefore he was worthless. He's in the G-League now.

                Plenty of HoF 4's 6'8 or under or 240 or under.
                Barkley
                Dennis Rodman
                Elvin Hayes
                Gus Johnson
                Dolph Schayes
                Dave DeBusschere

                And guys under 240
                Kevin McHale was like 6'10 but weighted under 240.

                Kevin Garnett 6'11 240 but came in th league at 195. But Anthony Bennett was too small for the league okay.

                Even centers some were 6'8 or under.
                Wes Unseld
                Ben Wallace

                Current Power Forward Draymond Green is 6'7 230.

                  HOW is the number one pick in the NBA draft too small to play in the NBA.
                  He was picked number one for a reason.

                  He was just never very good to begin with. His height had nothin to do with it. You're telling me if he was 6'11 255 he would havd been the next Tim Duncan. No he just would have been Kwame Brown.

                    I didn't say there weren't any. You'll find more above that height. Again, I'm not agreeing with that other poster. All I did was clarified the point he was trying to make. Bennett ****** in the paint because he ****** in the paint. It had nothing to do with his size.
