Obviously, the guy can shoot with the best of them, but his quickness really surprised me. A friend of mine who knows ( ) told me that Langhi would surprise people with his quickness, but I was skeptical. His crossover (at 6'11"?!?) was pretty well developed and he definitely has some hops. If he puts on a little weight, he could be a Dirk Nowitzki type athlete. To me, he posesses the four skills that make him a terrific offensive player other than shooting: - He runs the floor very well. I was surprised with how fast he got up and down the floor. - He has a very quick release. Not only is he big enough to shoot over most guys, he has a quick enough release that it makes it almost impossible to block his shot. - He has very good quickness and footwork. That crossover freaked me out and his quickness with and without the ball was impressive. - He is explosive. It is obvious that his has some attitude. I had heard that he had a bit of an edge but was a really good kid. That is important especially around the offensive glass. Even if he didn't get rebounds, he seemed to always be around the ball. I'm looking forward to seeing him in some real games this season. ------------------ Save Our Rockets and Comets SaveOurRockets.com
Yes he has some attitude. He showed he has some FIRE in him! Did you notice that when he went up for that DUNK that the defensive player hit him in the chest and Langi hung on the net and swung his right foot in the direction of that player and just stared down at him like he was sending a message don't even try to block me! Yes we need players with some fire. ------------------ One minute ago you had 60 seconds longer to live then you have now. Did you enjoy the 60 seconds you just had?
Also, how about his handles? 6'11" with a good crossover and bringing the ball up the court against the press. Wow. There will be nights his jumper isn't falling, but his other skills will enable him to contribute in other ways. ------------------
And you guys wanted to crucify Rudy for trading for him!!! Shame on all of you!!! ------------------ "Don't think twice, its allright"
