THIS GUY IS AMAZING. look at his freakish blocks! and amazing athletism! if we can, we should get him, and what a hard worker down low! very impressive (maryland's chris wilcox)
although i agree that wilcox has amazing talent, we would be so overloaded at pf it wouldn't even be funny with Mo, kt, and eddie who could all start.
Then play him at center!!! He wouldn't be a starter his first season in the league anyway. Just let him back up Cato. So what if he's two inches short of 7'. Unlike Eddie and Mo Taylor he's actually has POWER!!! Ben Wallace makes an INCREDIBLE center and he's 6'8". Wilcox is the same type of athlete as Wallace. He's not quite as fierce of a rebounder, but he's actually has potential to be a good offensive player and free throw shooter. Like I've been saying all week. If the Rockets can't find a good deal to trade their pick, they should use it on Wilcox. You can tell just by watching the game that Gooden is just simply not the athlete that Wilcox is.
If wilcox wants to play center then he better gain some weight, he is listed at 220 lbs but i think he would be available at around the 6th / 7th pick if we wanted him.
I don't care what is listed in the media guide, he is bulkier than 220. Right now I'd say he's about 245, but I think he could bulk up to about 265 and not lose a whole lot of his explosiveness. Dude is going to be scary.
Yeah he is a Ben Wallace type player... The Rockets should look at him, I think he can play back up C..
Honestly he looks like he could play some SF too... especially against the likes of Jordan, Van Horn, Marion... I wouldn't match him up against one of the quicker SF's in the league but he might play 3 positions, at least his first couple of years. I know dunleavy's slow but he's easily a match for Donyell Marshall. Drew Gooden was pushed around tonight.
