I don't see how people compare Bagley to Amare Stoudemire.

Stat was one of the strongest "straight from high school" guys ever.

I'd argue him and Moses Malone.Amare came straight outta high school

running through niccaz chest.His combination of aggressiveness/tenacity/raw power/first step/speed

couldn't be fukked with.And he had hands like C Webb.He could catch ANYTHING in traffic.That's why the

Nash/Amare pick n roll was so deadly.I see niccaz that can leap high into the sky, but Amare had a relentlessness that

I've never seen from another "high school" guy.He attacked the rim VIOLENTLY.Grown azz vets/ pros wanted no parts of that dude...

Same. Bosh was always the comparison for me. I guess they see great athlete and fast at that position and just put 2 and 2 together

He’s way closer to amare than bosh breh. His game is all athleticism. Bosh is a knockdown shooter with tons of post moves in the bag. Bagley is nothing like that.

Duval County
Aaron Holiday kinda reminds me of Nate Robinson but without the jump out the gym hops. (which is still good):ehh:

Duval has been pretty good too despite only having 6 points.
