okay, i like Jorts a lot. but you're joking, right? he's a solid bench guy. Kevin Love could be second team all NBA this season.
Lets clarify....Jorts can fill that charles oakley role as a rugged PF off the bench, giving hard fouls, taking a charge, and throwing his weight around.His similarity to Love is that he doesn't have an athletic build, with an underrated jump shot...even out to the 3 pt line and beyond. That doesn't mean he's Love's twin....I'm just giving my opinion of his ceiling as a rugged PF with 3 pt range, who can rebound.
BTW....Kevin Love wasn't second team all star during his first preseason game or even his rookie year.....I said a mix between two players (not someone who's currently on Loves level right now), which means at worst he may just turn into a Charles Oakley type role player....Which still exceeds my expectations.
Personally, I think Shump could be the next D.Wade....Right now, he's just Shump the rookie. Later he might be Shump the superstar. Comparisons are just a fun way to visualize ones ceiling / potential. Nobody ever becomes exactly like another player!
Forgive me, but I'm just on a high right now with how quickly we went from the laughing stock of the NBA to a title contending team! That reminds me....LIGHT UP!
Pass me some that stuff your smoking, cause its obviously the good ish. Oakley was an all-star and 14 and 12 in his prime. U certainly don't think thats Jorts worse case scenario do you?
You do realize that our Star Center hasn't even put up those kind of numbers, ever in his career although he was close at one point, don't you?
I mean I guess your adjusting for inflation, or the lack of dominant bigs in the league or, your just puffing too much of that good ish.
