FWIW, Vonleh is exactly the kind of guy you'd like to pair with Love. Ability to cover out on the perimeter and protect the rim.
Agreed. He doesn't look as explosive with the added bulk, but he still has excellent timing around the hoop to swat. He's rarely caught out of position.
The favoritism with the 3-point shot worries me a bit. I'd like to see a more diversified post game against quality NCAA comp. _________________ Resident Car Nut.
He doesn't look to have a huge upside to me, maybe like a Horace Grant type role playing starter.
The added bulk seemed to hinder his athletic abilities.
Different player athletically in HS.
Meh, players usually look more athletic in youtube HS clips than they do in college/NBA, and it's probably due to lowered camera angles and crappier competition.

The added bulk didn't help his athleticism. Every time I see him, he's a step slower and A LOT less confident in what to do offensively. _________________ Resident Car Nut.

It doesn't usually help players' athleticism, but so what? Are you implying that if he drops the weight (which we have no idea if he'll do,) then he'll have much more upside?

Implying that he either grows into is body more, or finds a better way to implement his footwork along with the bulk. _________________ Resident Car Nut.
only has 3 FGA but makes his FTs, grabs 12 boards, gets a steal and 4 blocks. maybe he can be an undersized c like horford. horford's college #s were a lil better tho
There are a number of undersized Cs in the draft and even Jordan Hill does a great job in that role. I'm looking for more unless he's such a great pick and pop player that you can essentially have him play the open paint offense.
You would literally have a totally spread out floor from 1-5 with players dipping in and out of the paint on offense.
Kwame Brown with a 3. Bad hands and bad footwork. However, has great size and strength. He'd be best using 1 more year of college eligibility and then coming out

I think if you've got a guy that can hit the outside shot, shot-block (whether it's timing/length or explosiveness), and most of all rebound on both ends you've got the kind of C that can have an impact on Day 1.
