Did anyone else notice that Bobo wasn't there? He usually attends. Should we be concerned?

No not really.
I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.

refresh us on the one foot jump controversy please

That one foot jump thing always puzzled me, why anyone would say it and why it would become an issue at all.

Who were the proponents/opponents, it has almost passed time out of memory.

If I recall, one poster criticized Sato for only jumping off of one foot, and this criticism seemed kind of goofy to most of the rest of the posters.

speaking as a person that is has a .00005 inch vertical(with the help of a ladder), I think the two foot one foot jump threads were hilarious. Sato could rebound with the biggest guy out on the floor and still does. I saw him take a dime off the top of backboard and that was enough for me.

Two feet means you can rebound inside better but may not have the second and third jump as high, Sato, as stated, had no problems and he was the quickest of the bunch on the second and third try. They also don't have as high a jump on a transition basket, (They may slow down to make a dunk on a fast break). Guys like Brown don't need to slow down and in fact get high going faster. It never hurt Sato. Give me a guy with a 42 inch vertical any day and I don't care he he jumps off one or two feet.
