He's a great player but am I the only one who thinks he is a little overrated? I mean he cant score, and really good big guys have proven that they can score against him. He couldnt stop Lonny Baxter at all a couple of years ago and this past year James Thomas for Texas did quite a number on him IIRC. I guess he is only a junior this up coming season and still has plenty of time to improve but I cant see this guy ever being picked as high as number 1 or 2 overall. He is a very good defensive player but his offensive game is limited. I cant see him being much of a scorer on the NBA level and he wont ever be as good on defense as Ben Wallace, I just dont see him being that much of an NBA player.

No UConn fans here I guess, or none that are willing to support their big guy anyways :laugh:

reminds me of ben wallace in a way, but as you said, clearly not as good
he might surprise though, and turn out to be a good nba player
someone will need him
