advantage. You need size, but often these really tall players are weak and skinny or so big/slow that they effectively clog your offensive flow or they're useless in a transition game. UF had unique big men. Guys who were quick enough to defend and athletic enough to cut and move, rather than just standing around the block waiting for someone to toss it into them.

Rotation comparison as of today: - alwaysright MU - 4/8 08:32:47

I think the idea that Burns is going to contribute much at - Delicious MU - 4/8 08:42:27

Absolutely delusional. Vanover w/ no experience - ferret mcmarmot MU - 4/8 08:52:25

There seems to be a point where height ceases to be an - Mormad MU - 4/8 09:15:05

This is correct. There are a few exceptions and - alwaysright MU - 4/8 09:20:14

Vanover could have been a good asset if used differently - FIJItiger MU

What the heck are you talking about - BlackSheep MU - 4/9 11:25:31

He was not a good player - alwaysright MU - 4/8 10:50:32

agree. You could use him differently but it would - SabertoothTiger MU - 4/8 13:24:59

Eric Musselman disagrees. - Sigma MU - 4/8 10:23:55

agree. (nm) - SabertoothTiger MU - 4/8 09:01:55

Have you seen him play? He runs alot better than Vanover... - BandG MU - 4/8 09:00:56

i'm not arguing, but if he can do all those things, why - 90Tiger STL - 4/8 09:08:48

Injury - alwaysright MU - 4/8 09:16:40

RE: Injury - 90Tiger STL - 4/8 09:36:25

Running and jumping have nothing to do with opponent - alwaysright MU - 4/8 10:00:55

He did it it in practice after he recovered from his injury. - BandG MU - 4/8 11:38:14

or being good at basketball. Great thread (nm) - 90Tiger STL - 4/8 10:21:01

You responded to a post talking about running and - alwaysright MU - 4/8 10:42:21

I hope he surprises me. I'd be surprised if he isn't - SabertoothTiger MU - 4/8 09:05:44

top 75 vs unranked is maybe not the best comparison, but - alwaysright MU - 4/8 08:55:42

It’s not a failure if he doesn’t contribute much next year - ferret mcmarmot MU - 4/8 09:16:06

I don’t think he’s ever going to be a guy that holds - alwaysright MU - 4/8 09:18:15

That’s exactly right, he’ll be overpowered one on one but - ferret mcmarmot MU - 4/8 09:32:29

Can he become a Trevon Brazile - Mormad MU - 4/8 09:24:10

"whether or not Burns is the unicorn they say he is. Big IF" - alwaysright MU - 4/8 08:44:58

as of today: - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/8 08:37:58

A good Pierce would be an added important bonus(nm) - oldtgr MU - 4/8 09:17:13

He got better. Needs to keep improving and be more - Mormad MU - 4/8 09:56:37

Probably, but that's why I say Burns could be a key. - alwaysright MU - 4/8 08:42:42

Burns or Marshall or a transfer (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/8 08:49:17

I would have been ok with a transfer center, but not - alwaysright MU - 4/8 08:53:19

I still think the goal is a transfer center - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/8 08:57:58

Then Porter & Northweather were a waste of resources - alwaysright MU - 4/8 09:15:56

Porter will be better as a backup at the 4 spot - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/8 09:24:40

Rim protection would be huge. We really have had almost - FIJItiger MU
