So the Detroit Pistons drafted a powerfull guy, I like that. Kudos to Dumar's. I guess he's been reading this blog: the NBA needs more blockers. Real men who get physical at the paint and rebound. Just like Master Wallace.
So I was reading this article on the Detroit Free Press about the guy:
" Let's see if this reminds you of anybody.He's a relatively unheralded, undersized front-court player who hangs his hat on his physical and mental strength, his work ethic, his toughness, and tenacity on defense and on the boards.
He speaks softly, when he speaks at all.
"I always say it takes three people to have a conversation with him," joked his agent, Richard Katz.
He's all iron and steel on the court, but it is obvious he has a playful side, as well. One of his hobbies is building model cars.
Folks, Ben Wallace has a mini-me."
Could it be true?
Well, let me tell you, even though I like this guy there are some fundamental differences:
This guy is put to shame next to Wallace.
Well, those are my reasons, and if you think that's not enough, bend over.
Posted by Mark at June 30, 2005 04:31 PMHi Mark,
I read ur last article, and although they are compering this new guy to My Ben, I dont think thats true.
I have to admit i never saw the guy playing, but...it will take a rookie (any rookie) a few years of practice, exprience and knowledge just to be able (MAYBE) to be told in the same breath with Ben.
HE'S THE MASTER OF DIFFENCE AND WILL STAY THAT WAY!!!!
So i agree with every thing u wrote.
