With all our big men dropping like flies, he seems like the obvious choice to me to be brought in. He looked good in RMR and fits our offense, but then he wasn't even invited to preseason camp - not ours, not any team's. So what am I missing about his game? What are the flaws in his game that prevent him from being able to bang with the Pig Millers and Mark Bryants of the league? I would think we could use his twelve fouls and outside shot in two games against Shaq this week, but that's just my opinion....What's yours?

I agree Oak There is nothing stopping Axel from playing in the big league cept GMs who don't pick him. He has it all size, great foot work, mobility, a likeness for boarding and banging and to top if off a great outside shot. Smeg PS funny thing a commentator said the other day while commentating a game in which Axel was playing "His parents must have benn big fans of Eddie Murphys character in Beverly Hills Cop". ------------------ www.ILoveHumblePie.com
Personally, I like Dench and the things he brings to the court. But I do not think he is good enough right now to warrant any minutes in the NBA. I wish he had been a higher option with Gonzaga. But he was third or fourth behind Santangelo, Frahm, and Calvary. I think had Dench benn a higher option in the offense in college, he could have really polished his skills and may have been drafted. ------------------ There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."
LOL, that is like saying he is in the USBL. Axel Dench was not ready for the NBA according to Rudy and CD. Do you need any other proof? ------------------ http://home.swbell.net/rkb3/hr.html = Live Rockets Chat
