― k3vin k., Tuesday, 10 November 2015 17:19 (eight years ago) link
i think the way the league is going now that athletic 7 footers just aren't going to slip like that over offensive concerns. if a guy can defend the rim and catch lobs off the pick and roll that's an immediately valuable player (i.e. cauley stein)
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 10 November 2015 18:50 (eight years ago) link
yeah the tyson chandler model was def under appreciated a few years ago in ways its not now, but still teams have always loved athletic big men!

June 26 Update: Andre Drummond: The next Dwight Howard or the next Kwame Brown?
Who knows? Really.
Drummond has all of the tools to be the next Howard. At 18, he's already 7 feet tall, 280 pounds. He has a 7-foot-6 wingspan and elite athletic abilities. That's not a basketball player; that's a basketball god.
But he's also the second-youngest player in the draft, and at times it shows. He doesn't always play hard. He takes off plays and sometimes entire games. His skill level (highlighted by his awful 29.5 percent free throw shooting) is a major work in progress. He doesn't always work hard off the court to improve his game. And when you talk to him, he sounds more like a 16-year-old trapped in the body of a 28-year-old giant.
Anyone who says he knows what Drummond will be is a psychic or a fraud. If he lands on the right team, gets the right coaching and is open to dedicating himself completely to the game, he could be the next Howard.
If Drummond is left on his own, isn't forced to develop or just decides that he doesn't really like basketball, Brown isn't out of the question.
More likely, he's somewhere in between those guys. DeAndre Jordan, anyone?

meanwhile, Paul Millsap just became the first player to record at least 15 boards, 5 blocks and 5 triples in a game since the inception of the 3-point line in 1979-80 in Saturday night's big home win over Boston.
― Better Pau Gasol (Spottie), Monday, 11 April 2016 21:18 (eight years ago) link
Not convinced that Millsap isn't better than Draymond tbh
― tsrobodo, Monday, 11 April 2016 22:53 (eight years ago) link
draymond the better defensive player by a fair amount but it's prob closer than some people think
― call all destroyer, Monday, 11 April 2016 22:56 (eight years ago) link
Milsapp has been a monster on D recently (and for most of the season tbf). Don't think Draymond is as good a paint/rim protector but he's more comfortable on a switch.
― tsrobodo, Monday, 11 April 2016 23:09 (eight years ago) link
I used to get Millsap and Carl Landry mixed up in fantasy; are their games anything at all similar, having barely ever seen either of them play?

Have to imagine he'd average a few more assists if he was kicking out to Steph and Klay instead of Kyle "hard regression to the mean" Korver and Touch me Teague me.
