He benefited from a crop of avg to garbage Centers. The Bynums & Odens never panned out to compete . KAT,Embiid & Jokic are already better.
They arent better than prime Dwight yet but even if they are, theres nothing that any of them can do to stop Dwight from doing what he does best in the paint and none of them could stop Dwight in the paint. Prime Dwight would without a doubt routinely beat they shyt in the paint. Theyd just play the perimeter or roll.

Dude is a LT....Tyron Smith with a basketball.

Of course if he was about 4 to 5 inches taller, we'd be talking about him as the next Shaq. Right now, he is looking like Charles Barkley on the high end.

He was fluctuating between 285-300 pounds when he was drafted, Moses Malone worked out with him til he got down to about 255-260 before he was able to consistently start. And Zion got a good 3 inches on him so he can carry a little more weight.

The Truth
Hops
Handles
Length
Strength


Breh can easily be a small ball 4 in the league like Draymond.
I wonder if people who say he can’t handle the rock EVER watched this kid play..

Mutherfukker is a 285lb, left handed slasher thats breaking college records before his first game... he can put the ball on the floor whenever tf he feels like it. He’s not AI but he’s not fumbling shyt everywhere either and he plays tough D...


His shot is the only thing questionable but it’s definitely not nearly as bad as nikkas claim

How yall never seen this kid play but got all these opinions on this young man

Dude is a bull, but I fear he's not going to be fast enough to get past quicker defenders and not skilled enough (at least yet) back to the basket to take advantage of his strength. I might be wrong though.

Yeah I think 285 might be an exaggeration for the publicity/hype...

Five pounds less than the heaviest player in the NBA... Boban :francis:








I was gettin it when he was in HS. But I’m getting heavy bust vibes from dude.



Julius randle knees won't hold up.

He way to big.

Coach K better get him in shape
I havent seen this guy play, but he has bust written all over him.. his ceiling is Rodney Rodgers
He need to transition to football
He's too heavy. Is he trying to keep the NFL as a backup plan?

Barkley was an one of a kind player. Not sure why he keep getting namedropped
Don't draft him, Knicks :wow:


Anthony Bennett
Larry Johnson














Mike Sweetney:pachaha:






Have you guys had a change in mind or you guys are doubling down? :picard:
