A lot of people here are VERY optimistic. All-Star? We can't go that far yet. Don't put these outrageous expectations on our young players yet. Landry JUST started to get rotation playing time and is playing well but we can't proclaim him to be the next Carlos Boozer or something. If we have these kinds of expectations for our players then we're going to be very disappointed in the future if they don't pan out.
Definite start, but an All Star is to be seen. Landry imo has to get a chance to start next year at SF.
He reminds me of Milisap. Definitely a solid rotation player, but he definitely needs some more post-up moves and a lot more defensive things. It would've been great if Jeff's assistance and defensive coach Tom is still here, so he could learn how to defend the post like Chuck did.
Anybody want to take a stab at the numbers of his new contract? I'm not a salary guru but maybe 3 years/8mill is a fair offer from us. We'll have Bonzi's and Snyder's salary space freed up after this year. I still don't know what other teams would offer, rest assured the Pacers know what Landry can do.
I voted "Starter" provided the Rox Management & Coaching Staff still had faith in him when he hits the Rookie wall. If they recognized his potential, they should help him getting over this hurdle, instead of trading him away for another vet player. I have the same observation for the new players like Scola and Brooks. I am sure this trio, together with Yao and TMac, is the future of Rox.
