    In ESPN's Daily Dime this morning, they showed a recap from David Thorpe's blog. Guess who he compares Landry to??? That's right, Sir Ground Chuck himself. Man the wonders that a 16-game win streak will perform! Here's the full quote:

    i disagree. i think he is more like Amare minus the footwork, so basically a poor mans Amare. with 30+ minutes he is a legit 20/10 guy.

    A legit 20/10 guy with only 30 min.? That's a freaking top 10 player in the league!! Hi Houston, we've got the franchise player for the next decade!!

    I also see Aaron Brooks as a poor mans Terrell Brandon but not no Kevin Johnson. I think in 3 or 4 years Brooks will be putting up Terrell Brandon numbers. Also both came out of Oregon.

    He certainly has the potential to become that remember he is only 25. I said 30+ minutes which could mean 35 minutes as well. Landry playes off the ball so well and dont need to dominate the ball to get his points unlike Barkley.
