Ebanks with nice dribbling and a sick floater! This guy is legit.


The guy is looking like Durant, not Ariza.


I agree, I saw some flashes in his game similar to Durant. I think he has the ability to create his own shot. Also runs the floor well.

We are going to sign both. 2nd round rookie contracts are dirt cheap, pretty sure the value will not get any better than signing these guys to take up two spots on the bench.

We really needed to bolster our bench, even though the guard situation is a bit tenuous, these guys are going to help out our frontcourt subs a whole lot.

DC would have had a few more assists if the other bigs weren't garbage

Yep- they fumbled a few from Strawberry also.

Absolutely- VERY nice!

Ebanks was the best player on the floor today and that's including Lawson.

And caracter looks like a flat-out steal at 58. He already seems like he can contribute more than Powell.


Strawberry seems like he could give Critt a battle for the change-of-pace, end of the bench guard.

Ebanks has a much better feel for than the game than Trevor, and looks like he'll have a nice mid-range game. He'll never have Trevor's ability to leap, but he may end up being the more complete player.

As fun as it is to watch him destroy people on the block, I think it would be a good idea for Chuck Person to put him in more situations in the mid/high post to get him comfortable out there. I think he has the ability to play out there, and I think against the big boys, the mid/high post is where he's gonna do most of his damage.

I only caught a bit of today's game and didn't see the first one. What I noticed about Caracter is that he is pretty good passer. Also, he must have dropped a decent amount of weight because he looked fit to me.

Ebanks, the West Virginia swingman who says he’s mistaken for Rockets guard (and former Lakers) Trevor Ariza about “100 times just today,” is focusing on his shooting, knowing that could be an area he can contribute right away.

Have you watched him play at West Virginia, or you just basing this off a small portion of what you've seen because from my view he has some decent ups!? He doesn't dunk as much as Trevor and isn't as explosive vertically but he's got the same leaping ability.

The vertical explosion becomes more important when you're forced to penetrate in heavy traffic, which is where Trevor really excelled. That's also something you wouldn't see in that youtube video, as he was just dunking on an empty floor.

Ebanks has very good hops, but Trevor is elite in that aspect of his game.
