    Bigger and more athletic.
    I’d say Danny Green to OG Anunoby, somewhere in between. Maybe shorter Ariza with better shooting is his ceiling.

    Mathews is like Scola a guy who plays hard all the time is comfortable playing a role, or being the guy. Those players are super rare.

    The energy is through the roof. This is the first time I can see such emotions again. I feel like jumping from my seat. :)

    A little bit low but yeah, if he agrees. He's 25 so if you lock him for 4 years, he's worth it. You can even give him double of that salary.

    Yeah but Scola did it until he was 40 years plus. (or Ginobody)

    Opposite of the Harden, the laid back dude who has all the talent in the world.

    Harden's body language is infuriating.

    The love of the game and the competitive fire - that is what you want to see........I want to see guys BURN to play, BURN to win.....we need leadership like that.....on the current Rox team, Garry Bird has it, so does Tate......unsure about the young ones....they generally don't show that side until they are confident they belong.....hoping it is in Green, Sengun, KPj and Christopher......already see it a bit in KMJ.

    I think it might come as a surprise to most people that Mathews and Kenyon Martin Jr. are the exact same size. He's not a small dude. Way bigger and more athletic than he gets credit for.

    Wood has it, Gordo has it.

    JC has it.

    So do Sengun and Garuba.

    All these guys HATE to lose.

    Not sure why you don't already see it.

    Yeah, this bunch is beginning to grow on me. The only two kids I still want to see some more fire are Green and KPJ. I hope they watch what 's going on while they are out and come back hungry.

    Y'all think it's 2011. If we don't, someone will give him 3 years 35 million. I wish it was 2011, JJ FATT would be teleporting to the endzone after picking off the Bengals.
