That's how potent Okafor's offense is. Town's hook shot would have to develop in to the Sky Hook for him to be as unstoppable as Okafor. You...
LOL I can't blame him though.... quite frankly, he is intellectually handicapped as a basketball player. Sad because he has the right tools and...
I have been watching his games. He has more range than Okafor, and he has developed a competent hook shot. No denying that he is an excellent...
Well said. I'm not hating on Towns either. I still think he is a #2 pick. But the gap between #1 and #2 is alot bigger than people realize....
That young core has 'dynasty' written all over it.
@RandleROFY I agree, just referring to people that prefer Towns over Okafor, arguing that he has a 'higher ceiling' I just can't see that when...
You're right, P&R defense is key in today's game. But we're still talking 'potential' here. Towns has the 'potential' to be a Serge Ibaka with a...
Good analysis, but I like him for the exact reasons you mentioned.
He's got incredible handles. Nothing flashy but very effective in tight spaces. There was another play in the 2nd quarter where he split 3...
I agree, and I'm not trying to undervalue the importance of defense, not at all. I'm talking about the trend in the NBA. More than half of the...
I understand Towns having the better defensive upside, but I'm not sure how important that is in today's perimeter dominated game.... I mean,...
He's going to be a very dangerous player if he develops his range past 18 feet..... with his slashing ability, a total nightmare for the defense....
I wonder how high his ceiling is..... he is definitely a natural SG though, with PG skills. I guess it depends on how well he develops his jumper,...
:cool:
Like I said, the gap keeps widening. Okafor is the sure fire #1. Besides, I haven't seen anything from Towns that suggests he has a higher ceiling.
I think Lin is definitely worth 4/16 or 5/20. Rondo is not 2x the player Lin is, thus not worth 10/40, most likely his value on this market.
These games proved that there is Okafor at #1, then there's everyone else.
Yes there are plenty of busts but AT LEAST a HANDFUL become stars or solid role players. NO current player from the CBA can impact a NBA team....
@therealdeal OK so we agree that the talent pool is better in the NCAA if we remove the foreign players from the CBA, yes? FACT: The bottom 80%...
Well it's certainly not an apple to apple comparison, but I still believe Division I talent is greater than CBA talent because as RandleROFY...
