Balkman needs to develop some semblance of an offensive game beyond layups and dunks... just had a wide open look at an 8 footer in the paint but passed it off to one of the scrubs for a baseline J from 15.

Also needs to work on his boardwork. Earlier in the game he batted the ball against the board instead of grabbing it, and the Suns wound up with it. A little later on he got a board but just got ripped, straight up.

He is surprisingly quick and adept at getting to the rim and finishing though. And looks like he has the potential to be one of those rare steal/block doublethreats on D too.

In the Orlando predraft camp, he was quoted as saying "I love that guy".

Great, he said comparing Garnett to Amare is like comparing a chihuahua to a rottweiler, and Amare is a rottweiler.

No, he said some guys are chihuahuas and some guys are rottweilers, and Amare is a rottweiler.

Whatever, I'm more interested in watching the game than entertaining your Stephon obsessions further. If I were dj I might say "get off the tip," but I'm feeling more hospitable than that-- please, continue to mumble to yourself in your miserable corner. cheers

Oh, so he didn't mention Garnett?

Stop whining and lying or whatever crap you're trying to pull.

Let's be honest- Brown probably changed his mind, 5 minutes after that comment.
