Jumper of Ray Allen, handles of Chris Paul, rebound like Rodman, block shots like Dream, post moves like Scola, on-ball defense like a stronger Paul George, power of Shaq, one-man fast-break like LeBron, and d*** like Greg Oden. Spoiler But honestly I'm so ****ty right now I wouldn't even be compared to a YMCAer. Shot around for the first time in a few years yesterday and it was shameful.
Game like Jason Kidd (but I am a decent 3pt shooter) I have a shooting form like a mix between Marion and Noah... It's ugly.
Boris Diaw. I get the ball in the post and then pass. I can also hook it over either arm, and I'm a pretty consistent mid-range shooter, especially off a screen.
Eduardo Nájera. Pesky, taking charges, rebounding, playing tough D on the best player on the opposite side. MEXICAN.
Chris Webber/Charles Barkley Hybrid. I love banging down low and i'd rather pass than shoot. i'm sometimes get too fancy for my own good though. sigh...i miss basketball.
Jeremy Lin Only been playing basketball for a year. Like to handle the ball. Pretty decent at finishing at the rim, but need to be more consistent with my jump shots and limit my turnovers. Not the best player but I am a hard worker. I got a long way to go
In my Baylor days, I used to ball almost everyday. Believe it or not, it affected my grades. I felt like I could do it all (shoot, post game, rebound, handles, defense). A 2 way player. When I didn't ball as much, I would probably compare to Scola or C Webb (crafty players). This thread reminds me that I need to get back into hooping. I'm 29 so it's not too late.
You rub your nose and touch your face after rubbing your crotch at every free throw? AUTO-inoculation
Dikemebe's speed, Isaiah's GM skills, Jordan's Draft picking, Ray Allen's nickname, a John Stockton's shorts, and Hakeem's Etonics.
At best (playing consistently and in decent shape):a poor mans James Harden/Manu Ginobili. I'm a measly 5'7 but I'm built like a football player so I can use the little quickness I have and my upper body to barrel through the paint for Steve Francis-esque layups. My ideal position would be an SF since I'm not a great coast-to-coast ballhandler or a smooth shooter. I used to play lockdown defense ala prime Artest but ever since I tore my ACL in high school, the explosiveness dwindled. At worst (barely playing, out of shape piece of trash): I become a horrible mish mash of a slumping Carmelo Anthony/Kyle Lowry. I chuck shots hoping to get a hot streak going to the detriment of the team, I then give up and focus on defense only to get blown by.
