    We're going international baby: Germany, Spain, Turkey. Now let's go after Scola to show Sengun how to add more moves with that footwork to build on this.

    Thesis is too small to get rebounds and block shots and he is to slow to cover Power forward......what can you do with a Center who is 6'8 who cannot rebound....he is too slow to handle Power Forward

    You keep saying this, but Theis is a well above average athlete.

    Man, you've got some seriously outdated thinking. You're completely ignoring Theis's monstrous wingspan and you can't seem to understand what block percentage is. We should totally keep entertaining you on this.

    This guy is a bad signing...too small. you need height...Wood was getting beat up last year and Kelly helped him out last year but we was 6'11 not 6'8
    Wingspan...Garuba has a Wing Span of 7'3 and I would not put him at center....well if we are playing small ball...Garuba has hops not Thesis

    Do you rebound the ball with your head or your hands?

    Again you keep saying this but you’re wrong. Garuba is not very explosive vertically, Theis is a better leaper than Garuba

    Maybe somebody else points this out but Garuba does not have hops. Good lateral movement and great instincts/positional defense, but very average vertical explosion.
