that guy is impressive. could be the next dennis rodman. he made 6-11 baker look like 6-0, he got his hands on anything close to him, he ran the floor hard and well, he knows his limitations and maximizes what he does well with 125% effort. Talk about length, he looks like he is 3 feet above the rim. that is one tall basketball team.

he is all about energy and hustle at this point, and probably would not be effective in long stretches of playing time. But yes, I was impressed by his hair and length

hes had 3 straight double-digit rebounding games in limited minutes. just looks like a very exciting team-orientated type player that helps win games. Hes a very good defender already, played well above any knick head

he plays alot like a young scott williams, but more athletic & runs the floor pretty well...they got a good role player there for a long time...if he ever develops a go to move & outside shot, he can be an allstar someday.

I think your just seeing an athletic guy playing well between a very good and big center and the bestyoung play maker in the NBA. He's good but dont overrated him.

KT/Baker/Nazr make a lot of guys look fast

I agree; Shaq could probably make the Houston of now a 20 ppg scorer on a consistent basis if they were on the same team. Great players have good effects on their teammates.

i just said he'd be a good role player for a long time a-la Scott Williams...if he ever were to develop a consistent go to move & jumpshot, i don't see why he couldn't become an allstar, but i could say the same for alot of other role players in this league.

same kind of thing your seeing from Haslem in Mia. Put him on the Hawks he's garbage, but he fits pretty good between Shaq and Wade.

i remember seeing him last summer vs. the US and did a nice baseline spin and dunk on j.o as well as knock down some 3's. he's got a nice skillset and clearly paxson RAPED orlando in that trade.

i don't agree with that...i think Haslem is a pretty decent young player...not going to be an allstar on any other team i agree, but he'd still be a solid role player imho...definitely not garbage like a Travis Knight.

garbage meaning his production. No... he's a good young guy and plays very hard. He doesnt have a high skill level is all I'm saying.

The guy looks like a big clown and on top of that he is a butcher. He looked good because the knicks stunk, plain out stunk, everyone looks fast in a jailbreak.... He was fouling like crazy and getting away with it..
