I said at the time and I'm going to repeat it now, how do you get Big Baby at 35? How?

He only developed his J this summer....Im pretty sure...35 for an undersized over weight PF sounds right

maybe you should think about KG being his coach

Correct.

Because he was fat as hell and no one wants a fatass on their team.

Definitely developed a jumper this summer. Which you could see was improving, literally, from week to week during the regular season. There was a stretch of about 4-5 games where I don't think he missed a jumper.

That would be Kobe dude. He scored 81 in his 666th game.

Correction, Kobe is Satan

Seeing as he was drafted 2 years ago and you joined the board a month ago, something here doesn't add up.

What does me joining a month ago have to do with big baby davis's draft position? If you don't like me Jazzy, that's cool, cuz you like Karl Malone, the most over rated MVP in history, and we aren't supposed to like eachother. But hey, just say it if that's what it is. What per chance, does not add up?

Are you serious? If thats not a quip thats freaky.

Things I've learnt from this thread: Big Baby Davis is the child of Kobe Bryant and that white hoe.

He developed a jumper only this summer.

Big Baby's skills for a big man his size were off the charts out of college. Being fat didn't stop him from being a dominant college player. Being fat didn't stop Chuck from being one of the best 4's ever.

I mean, seriously, did anyone think he couldn't learn to hit a jumper? Even at a large weight in college he was still a very good athlete and used his size/speed to create mismatches no one could handle. How many guys with his weight/size advantage could finish at the rim like him out of college? And you know, slim fast is cheap. ;0

I still don't get how you get him at 35. How do you seriously sit there and say oh yea, Petteri Koponen, lets take him when a proven star is still there. I don't even know how you take immobile Nick Fazekes over him or the chairman who went a silly 5'th. Or even Corey Brewer. That draft year is one of the serious mysteries to me.

I just don't understand how people worked him out and didn't see how well his skills translated to the NBA game.

Overweight, undersized PF with conditioning issues. Not as athletic as his peers in the draft class. Wasnt coming off a spectacular college season entering the draft where his stock was much higher a year prior. Teams have experiemented with players Big Baby size and saw it not work out, see Tractor Traylor.

Where should he have gone in your eyes? There have been greater steals in the 2nd round so this isnt some tragic situation to see him go early 2nd round.

KG for sure had a great effect on him but its not like other teams didn't have options to put him with a great mentor to coach him. There are plenty of those guys around.
