^ok now you just trolling. answer me this. if he is sooooooooo good like you claimed then how come he wen 20th overall in one of the weakest draft of memory? if you claim he he would give robinson a run for his money as the top pf in this draft then obviously you are a blind home.

ncaa has more competition than a overseas pro league, not to mention teams here actually play defense and are tough. you put ncaa players overseas where donatas is and they would have the same if not better stats.
with the lack of dominant centers, that might be really effective actually. Too quick. and PJ3 can contest shots.
I don't think you know what the Euroleague is. Grown men win, every time. And lol again at "...not to mention teams here actually play defense and are tough." Euroleague has a true zone, thus it is harder to score.
This has been covered extensively in other CF threads. If you have not bothered to watch D-Mo's games your opinion is irrelevant. At least read the relevant threads.
so you actually think d-mo would be a top 5 pick in this year's draft and would give thomas robinson a run for his money as the top pf drafted?
OK that reply is a serious face palm. I refuse to explain it because I have 100 posts on the Motiejunas thread. Please read them.
Are you kidding me? You lost any credibility you had left. You do know he broke a rebounding record over there, right? Also, since you think playing in the Euroleague is so easy, how come high school kids don't go there instead of college? You know, since it's so easy. They would get paid, not have to go to class, and get to see beautiful parts of Europe. Brandon Jennings and Jeremy Tyler are 2 recent examples, and they both failed. Tyler failed miserably.
no you refuse to explain it because you have no idea how to respond since you don't know what you are talking about.
Well, if Robinson is so good as you claim, why wasn't he considered a #2 pick in last year's "weakest draft of memory," but somehow is considered a #2 this year in a supposed stronger draft? Could it be, and I might be going out on a limb here, that 20yr old basketball players might have the capability to *gasp* improve as they get older?
ok now you are really delusional. you do realize that he came off the bench last season at kansas when they had the morris twins right? why the hell would he come out when he stayed the next season and started?
PJIII is a more explosive athlete... I assume that is what you mean... DMo is a more gifted post player, shooter, passer and rebounder.
You have NO cred left dude. http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=220853 For a start. Then move onto http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=208807 That statement that NCAA basketball is more competitive than Euro League just shows your lack of understanding of BB. Shut up and move on.
As a rookie Patterson was the Rockets best post defender, I do not think that long term defense will be his problem. However, he is not a very efficient player, does not play in the post on offense and does not block enough shots to play next to Cousins. I just do not think Patterson and Cousins is a good mix at all.
I do not have a frame of reference as far as Jones v D-Mo explosiveness. They have never played against the similar competition.
