Memphis has been praying to god that they play the Clippers.

Let me re-phrase that. Z-Bo has been praying to god that he gets to bully Blake.

Yea they would cause if the playoffs started today they would host the clippers


So again how are the overrated :stopitslime:

You'll see, they will not get past R1 or R2 AGAIN this season. They're over-rated because I hear people saying they're a good team when they aint even a threat.

When he's playing the Cavs push the ball and run on the break making them more effective they don't need Tristan to be a star his athleticism makes their offense better. If Wiggins was on this team his defense, athleticism and improved offense woulda made them a threat in the near future.

The way these teams are tanking they might have got Love for the low as well (by the trade deadline) :patrice:

For starters, he had a 30.5" vertical at the combine and he's not a 7 footer, he's 6'9.75" without shoes. Legit 7 footers have been more athletic than him (Shaq, Robinson, McGee).


His claim to fame is jumping high and guys like JaVale McGee (32.5" vert) and Steven Hunter (38.5" vert) are taller than him and jumped higher than him, Drummond jumped higher while being 20-30lbs heavier and was also quicker in the lane agility test.

Ontop of that there's more to athleticism than just jumping, he's not necessarily quick, or fast in the open court. He's not stronger than Dwight, and he doesn't jump higher than Dwight did, Drummond is heavier than him, jumped higher and was quicker, so how is he one of the most athletic centers ever when you can't even say he's the most athletic 5 in the league today :yeshrug:
:scusthov:
Combine stats a probably say vince wasn't a goat dunker, eye ball test is another.. Drummond may have much more offensive potential, but he doesn't have a third of the blocks and dunks Jordan has made athletically.. McGee I agree.. Younger Howard yes... Shaq is shaq, own level...

In Orlando, I think Dwight might have been most athletic shot blocker I've ever seen

It was crazy how high he was getting up to block some of those shots, his vert had to be higher than 30.5"
