    That dunk is spot on with T-mac's dunk over Shawn Bradley in the playoffs. It baffles me how everyone is saying Lamb's upside is Kevin Martin.. To me this dude is a Gerald Green/K-mart hybrid. He's got mad hops.

    Disagree on two points: athleticism, and Martin comparison.

    Athletically speaking, from his combine testing, his max vertical, lane agility and 3/4 court sprint results rivaled those of John Wall and Russell Westbrook. Not to mention he's bigger and longer then both of them as well, which really speaks to his overall athleticism and explosiveness testing out similar to those two.

    Secondly, as it has been mention in this thread before Lamb is almost nothing like Kevin Martin. Besides their slight build, both are very different players.

    I see a little Nick Van Exel in him.

    Thanks, I didn't know that about his athleticism. He didn't look to be so in the videos.

    I said I could see the logic in the Martin comparison not because of their similar build, which I don't actually see, but because it didn't seem that he created many of his shots.

    But maybe that has to do with the system he was playing in, instead of an inability to take on a defender one-on-one.

    And he's only 20, so he's just starting to figure out his game.
