Look at his stats:
15.4 points, 7.5 rebounds, 2.5 steals, 2 blocks a game!
And he doesn't have a jumper yet! He's a potential 20 - 8 - 2 - 2 - 2 guy |

Yeah, they had peja at his best back then too, so hard to really fault him too much. Everyone knew he was good there, they just knew they weren't going to be able to get him minutes. |

one of three players in history i believe too average 2 steals and 2 blocks, that is if he finishes with those averages. If that guy gets a J this offseason, watch the hell out. He's on his way too stardom, if I was him i would be working my ass off on a jumper this offseason. |

Hopefully he can avoid the injury bug though...this year it bit him and that seems like the one thing that's gonna stop him right now. |

Don't expect his jumpshot to develop so easily if at all. I've seen 8th graders with better form. |

He'll never be a shooter, mechanics are just too ugly and he would need to clean shop and start all over, something very hard to do at this stage.
He was simply buried on the Sacto teams back in the day. They had themselves convinced they were contenders and didn't feel they had the time to develope him as a player.
Still I loved his game back in the day, I just hated the name on his jersey. Has to be one of the best athletes in the league. One of my favorite non-Lakers. _________________ bonerkillcollective.tumblr.com - peep our art. |

well if i was him, ide start cleaning up shop on that J, because whop craps if he scrapes his 3 shot, not only he takes many or can hit many. He's older than parker, but while he works on that J, he still can do what he is doing now and srive too the hoop. |
