when G.Wallace came out his offensive game was very raw too. I still don't think it's that polished but the man could dunk and that's about it.
G wallace is 6-7 220 with a +40 inch vertical. hes on another plain athletically compared to 98% of NBA players- he was a very highly touted prospect out of HS--i think top 10 if i remember right[ariza was pretty high 2 like top 25] wallace couldve gone prep to pros--thats the kind of athlete he is.
I think people are talking way out of their arse on a player they have never seen other than some clips. yes he played awesome down the stretch of the year--but that is conveniently looking past some facts like
he scored 3 or less points 8 times last year
he was double digit rebounding 6 times out of 33 games.
he hs no offensive game except dribble drive dunk and garbage points
needs to shift his game to players who might overwhelm him in the nBA as a 3 do i think a 6-6 206 pound guy is going to be a force in the nba pivot---yeah right.
other than his last batch of games, he was never really a force his whole career.
when i watched him this year aginst PITT, he seemed small he couldnt do anything with Gray and Kendall--no factor aginst a team that had size and played tenaciously
my bet is this kid if not picked by the knicks at any point is a FA.
