Maybe one of you brehs that know more about the low post than I do can explain to me what is it that Jahlil Okafor does in the post that makes him special?
All I really see is dude is outmuscling everyone 90% of the time. Considering that most of the cats that'll be defending him in the NBA will be strong as well, does his skill set really translate? So far it looks like it's almost always one move only. Rarely do I see any kind of counter move. Now if it works, great, but chances are that one move will be stuffed in the NBA. Unless you have an array of moves that make the defender off balance to the point where that one move can be effective. But I don't see that from him.
Rarely any head fakes either. Also the fact that dude isn't hitting wide open people under the basket (like at the 10:30 mark of the video) when he sees a double is alarming. Dude was literally wide open flailing his arms for a few seconds under the basket and didn't get the ball.
As a Lakeshow fan this shyt looks suspect and I'll be more willing to take Russell and combine him with Clarkson going ahead.
