    They're extremely similar. I think Larry is more explosive, but Thomas is probably more sudden. Until one of them develops a consistent jumper, they're really both Cs instead of PFs in today's NBA.

    For what it's worth Tarik is the same thing. http://www.draftexpress.com/profile/Tarik-Black-5711/

    We have three competent backup PF/Cs, but none that stick out. Larry is probably the best one, but he needs a jumper more than Julius does.

    I believe Bass's arms are long too. I'm busy packing, so I can't look it up.

    Robinson just "liked" that post on Twitter

    :Noddingyes::Laugh:

    On another note, I notice I was blocked by Metta? :Crazyartest:

    Maybe he was sticking up for Byron, and saw I was messing with his mental health?

    That was probably Artest, not Metta.

    Man this guy has played his way into a role on this squad next year. Need to find a way to keep him on the cheap and probably trade Black. Man that Mozgov deal REALLY hurts now when you see guys like T-Rob killing it. Ugh.

    A double double in 20 minutes. This guy looks like he has a great motor.

    I believe Black has a team option?
