    Amazing athletic ability, good length and size. He just needs to put it all together. For a 21 year old I don't understand why thats such a hard concept for some to grasp.

    BTW, those two things you mentioned are something that 90% of centers could only dream of.

    Qyntel woods had a physique and talent of a superstar, but what's on top of his neck was the problem.

    Completely different situation. Qyntel Woods was retarded.

    SL was frustrating to watch. Dude missed rotations, didn't rebound, rarely boxed out, didn't protect the rim or show any moves inside outside of a catch and shoot hook. Plus the one skill he apparently worked on was his outside shooting (and it's not even that great). W.e either we need better coaches, or he's clueless. I don't have the patience to wait for him to maybe become a starter in the league unless we go onto a full blown rebuild.

    So is Leonard. He actually got worse in a year. His first SL was better than his second.

    From this SL I learned that McCollum is no Lillard, and Leonard is no Olynyk. In both cases, the former absolutely sucks compared to the latter.

    He had a PG that could get him the ball.

    I think this teams history of getting fucked over by Centers has jaded some of you guys.

    I thought it was pretty obvious that Leonard was a project when we drafted him.

    I love how Canzano is the devil 99% of the time until he posts something people agree with. So convenient

    I do know that a lot of NBA players who have gone to Big Man's Camp have shown significant improvement. So that's a good sign.

    Your sentence implies that people disagree with 99% of what he writes.

    Next puzzle? Within each riddle is its answer.
