Mickey really impresses me as a quick leaper off two feet around the rim.  He just gets off the ground quick and can hang around and make plays when you don't expect it.

That's what really caught my eye watching him at LSU last year.  Exceptionally quick on the second jump.

Hunter looks like he's losing weight  :o

His legs look like sticks.  I was hoping to see him gain ten pounds in his first year.  It doesn't look like he's gained an ounce.

maybe sully steals his meals?  ;D

We either have a poor medical/nutrition staff or someone mixed up RJ's and Sully's charts.

I had been seeing more of him and it's stood out.  It is a big weapon and doesn't look impressive to a lot of people but it is a great athletic ability to have, especially for a 6' 9" PF.  Only a few guys in the NBA who can second jump like that.  Wiggins is one that comes to mind but he doesn't use it as much due to his position and playstyle.

^Yep, Wiggins... and I'll add Ibaka, Jose Calderon, and Pablo Prigioni. That about rounds out first class 2nd leapers.

this skill is what made Rodman an exceptional rebounder.
