| He does like to take it to the hoop. I saw both summer league games on TV. He looked lost in the first game, but more confident and comfortable in the second game. Time will tell... |

He's tried that baseline spin twice in the SPL already but was unsuccessful both times.
He's been quietly efficient so far but I wish he was a little more aggressive. |

I'd be more impressed if he could run an offense well, or shoot well, or play some defense, any joe blow can dunk. Harold Minor anyone?

| He's not really a dunker, he uses most of his jumping on his jumpshot where he had great lift on it. |

| anyone else wish we had gone overseas with our pick? Not really a knock against the guy, but i don't think he will be any good really. Well not enough to warrant a spot on the team that is. But who knows, anything can happen. I wish the guy the best of luck and hope he works hard. |

| How do you guys come down so hard on a rookie? Negative criticism as if he's in his 10th year. Same people who are crying for Kwame to re-sign. |

If he was able to do those things at a high level he wouldn't have been drafted 58th. |

He finished 2nd in the McD AA dunk contest, the same contest won in different years by Lebron, Melo, and I think Dwight Howard.
He only lost because he missed both dunks.
The winner?
Candace Parker. |
