    Yes Babbit has a couple of problems commonly associated with young players. But a lot of players have to rework their release to make it work in the pro's. (Including Ray Allen). At least he has good springs so he can elevate, that is one thing you typically can't fix on a player.

    The last 2 games he looked like a different player really... you can tell he was finally feeling comfortable... which is hard for a big guy to do in summer league... even one playing SF. I also like some of his outlet passes... sharp and quick leading to a break. Once he grabbed the rebound... took it all the way up the court and for the between the leg move near FT line... not something you see from many big men.

    If that is true he has a great future in porn if the NBA thing don't work out for him.

    If only we could put Oden's equipment with Babbitt's stamina!
