I called it first!
I think he's got the potential if everything goes well- he's an incredible rebounder on the offensive end. He was 7th in the NBA in offensive rebounds last season- pretty good playing out of position with a recovering back.
The three point shot and his back to basket game are two of the most crucial factors to his All Star status.
Another thing working against him is that PF is probably the most star-laden position in the NBA.
To think that Zac Randolph has only been an All Star two times says it for me. The NBA is stacked at power forward and point guard.
You could have stopped at, "he's an incredible rebounder," haha
. If he continues to improve his post moves, why couldn't he be like Kevin Love in Boozer's body? I'm not trying to overvalue Sullinger, but he does model his game after Love, and there are definite similarities between the two. Ask yourself this - is there anyone else in the league who rebounds like Kevin Love and Sullinger do? I honestly don't think so. Sure, Sully isn't as consistent as Love in the rebounding department (yet, hopefully), but if he does develop that kind of consistency I could see him being a poor man's Kevin Love, and who wouldn't want that? What I don't want, however, is a player who's been charged with domestic violence, so I'm kind of torn, at best, about Sullinger, because I definitely like his talent, but I can't look past that incident with his girlfriend, so, sorry, but I just don't like the guy.
Edit - when given the playing time, Reggie Evans can put up awesome numbers, and Varejao was a great rebounder a few years ago before his injuries, but, still, that isn't too many guys, especially players without the athletic gifts of guys like Howard and Jordan.
