http://www.ucbearcats.com/sports/mbball/bio.asp?PLAYER_ID=871 He reminds me of a bigger Kenyon Martin. He is Nasty.
6 pts and 6 rebs in 23 min is the answer to our problems? Those aren't good numbers in the pros, in college they are second round pick numbers.
You probably just saw him in the game against Marquette. But still he is a pretty good player plus he made the winning shot against Marquette th other night.
No, I actually watched him play about 6 or 7 games. I am not talking about his stats. Watch him during a game. He plays like a thug. Protects the middle and intimidates opponents by his mannerisms.(i.e. stare, very close to a taunt) Why don't you guys check him out during the big dance. We will rehash this topic at that point.
People, people,people.........................................I am from Cincinnati (and have followed the Bearcats for the last 20 yrs) and only because I respect you so much as Rockets fans am I taking my valuable time help you out. Comparing Donald Little to Kenyon Martin is like comparing Walt Williams to Michael Jordan!!! In fact, Walt is closer to Jordan than Little is to Martin!!! Even Huggins himself said after the game that Little wasn't even an option on that last play (he said there were 5 options and Little wasn't one of them). Donald Little is to the Bearcats what Kelvin Cato is to the Rockets (except worse). I am one of the few Rockets fans who actually like Cato, so trust me when I say that he has no where near Cato's ability (and that isn't a compliment to Cato). We laugh about Little in Cincinnati, like you guys laugh about Cato at times. While Little did have a career night (12 pts) even Thomas Hamilton found the acorn every once in a while. Little's ONLY talent is blocking shots and over 50% of the time he goes for head fakes and badly fouls the other player. It is a rare night indeed when he is in for the full game due to foul trouble. Huggins kicked him off the team last year and he is playing w/out a scholarship (drug problems). He has been an embarrassment to the Cincy lineup and personally I was happy to see the kid have a good game. However, this does not make him a first round pick and I fell down laughing when I saw this post. This Bearcat team has only 2 legitimate NBA prospects- Steve Logan (whose size 5'10" will likely prevent him from making a team) and Jason Maxiell who is a freshman and sure fire lottery pick when he decides to come out. Maxiell is the real deal and even though Little starts he usually plays twice as many minutes at the center position. Huggins uses Little kind of like we used to use Granville Waiters (starts but doesn't play too much). Maxiell is from Texas and would be a dream pick for the Rockets next year as he makes more of a name for himself nationally. Hopefully this helps clear the confusion that has been created about Donald Little. Keep routing for those UC Bearcats though as they are a team we are very proud of up here in Cincinnati!!!
