    I'm REALLY becoming a fan of THIS GUY!

    Last nights #s against the Lakers:

    32pts, 18rebs (5 offensive!! :eek: ), 4 assists, and 1 block.

    DAMN!!

    And he's been posting similar #s, especially on the boards, all year.

    What a unique player!!

    I can't think of anyone he's similar to, being such a dominant rebounding SF (though I think Dr. J posted similar #s, but Marion's no Dr. J....yet ;) ).

    And the only other player 'on the horizon' that could be similar to Marion is probably D. Miles. Richard Jefferson isn't a bad candidate, either.

    He's actually the type of player I think Eddie Griffin can develope into, only not as dominant on the boards but with a better outside shot.

    True, but the reason I mentioned Miles and Jefferson is their ability to handle the ball and slash.

    Plus, I think of Eddie as a PF more than a SF.

    Eddie, while a good athlete, will never move like Marion

    They don't call him the Matrix for nothing, he's a freak.
