Same way Dwight has a higher ceiling than Bosh, when you're that physically overwhelming you have a ridiculously high ceiling. Davis probably has a more realistic shot of reaching his, but Drummond's is higher because he has the tools to be physically dominant. You can name all the big men busts, none of them had Drummond's weight and athleticism in the same package, not Kwame, Thabeet, Darko or Olowakandi.
People are quick to tear him a part, but there hasn't been a center prospect that big and that agile since Shaq.
Oh, I know he has huge potential since he is a ridiculous athlete, but he has some huge huge holes in his game, I really doubt he reaches to the utmost of his potential.. What do you think Davis's limit is compared to Drummond? I mean, I think Davis's ceiling is KG
the lack of "offensive" feel scares me most about drummond.. dude just looks totally lost. And his defensive rebounding/blocking out is
This year was really the first time Drummond had to play exclusively with his back to the basket, in HS he got away with floating out to the perimeter and handling the ball a lot.
He has huge holes, but he's a blank piece of paper right now, I've said before his development depends almost entirely on where he goes. A good organization that will push him to use his gifts could end up with a monster, but if he ends up in a place like Charlotte or Sac, he's pretty much done.
I don't see KG when I look at Davis, KG was more athletic than him and taller/longer. He's more Bosh than KG to me.
I remember one block in particular where he blocked a jumpshot and as it was going out of bounds somehow managed to recover and snag it to save the possession. AD is infinitely more athletic than bosh thats for sure
