This is from ESPN.com. Keep in mind when Moiso worked out for the Rockets I heard nothing but good things -- very good things -- about him. ------------------ NOTHING BUT .NET CLUTCHCITY.NET
How does Moiso private pub compare to the workouts of Miles and his rise? Moiso and Kemp on the floor together. An interesting sight to imagine. Mango ------------------ Live long and prosper. Donate blood! Smeg will be assimilated. Now...back to updating The Serious Police Files.
Hmmmm, notice how the article skips over the Rockets as a potential destination? Does that mean they would pass on him? ------------------ Check out the Best Source for Draft Info Draftsource.net
Mango-if you combine their weights, and give it equally to each, they'd be dominant.....I wonder if they can do things like that with the new technology ------------------ The more lefties on your team, the better.
The more I hear about Moiso, the more he begins to resemble Garnett in his early years. And since then, Garnett has developed a reliable jumpshot. Those of you who have seen Moiso in action, do you feel he has the potential to be the next KG? ------------------ I will demonstrate my clutchness this November.
MManal brings up the same point I caught when I read that. Why wouldn't the Rockets take him? ------------------ In the end there will be no judges...only witnesses to my greatness.
The next KG? No. Probably, and 99% not. He doesn't have the ballhandling/passing. He also won't average 12 boards a game. But, I think he'll be a good player, if he doesn't bomb he may be around an 18-9 type of player, with 1 block per game. But, he fits the Rockets style....finish the break, start it (with a block or a board), has a good framework of a postup game, not undersized on D (I think his D will improve....he's got the tools, just needs to put them together.) and he's a weakside shot blocking threat. I certainly wouldn't be dissapointed if we nabbed him. ------------------ The more lefties on your team, the better.
Why not wrath? Both play facing the basket and both have incredible hops. Is determination the factor? ------------------ I will demonstrate my clutchness this November.
For pretty much the same reasons NIKE mentioned. I don't think Moiso has the ballhandling/passing ability that KG does. I don't think he has the range KG does, although his shot could develop since Moiso is pretty athletic. Although Moiso could become quite a good shot blocker (especially from the weak side), he doesn't have the defensive versatility (or intensity) of a KG. I mean, KG can practically guard every position but the point guard. Now, this is all a very unfair comparison because KG is very, very good. He's an athletic freak the likes of which we've never seen before -- the guy is now over 7 feet tall ... Most importantly, I don't think Moiso has the drive and intensity to become an elite player. I see him as being an underachieving starter on a bad team or an ultra-talented bench player on a very good one (a la Marcus Camby). Moiso could thrive in the latter role; we'll just have to see if he wants it bad enough. Right now I say he doesn't. But hey -- maybe he showed something in his workout with the Rockets that he didn't show at UCLA. I've learned by now not to question our draft picks, so of Rudy and CD draft him I'll assume that they know something I don't. But the next KG? It's not even fair to Moiso to make that kind of a comparison. ------------------
I agree with wrath. Coaches, especially ones of underclassmen leaving early, rarely give glowing reviews like Lavin gave Moiso of "the best potential in the draft". I believe a rookie Moiso has a better mid range shot than a rookie KG, but rookie KG was 18, while rookie Moiso is 22. We'll find out if he has "it" soon. Hey, weren't there similar questions about KT? "Lacks focus, and desire" Rudy may be able to turn him around. He was also on a super talented UCLA, where he had to share the post, and the ball. ------------------ The more lefties on your team, the better.
Could he be the next Carlos Rogers with a more consistant long range jumper? ------------------ I'm tha hip hop attracta, rapper slash acta, right back at cha!
