So I now know Bill Wlaker can dunk and make layups from within 2 feet of the basket.

Can he play defense?
Can he pass?
Can he box out?
Can he play man on man defense?
Can he make good decisions?
Can he even make a shot outside of 2 feet?

Where are those highlights?


Sorry, dude, it's a real well done job putting together Walker's highlight dunks and such(if you did it), but it doesn't really tell me much about his ability as a player.

3 of those plays are from pre season games against bums.  I'd like to see Walker get some burn to see what he has to offer, but I doubt it will ever happen.
do it

But did you all see Scals strong move to the hoop and the off the glass set-up :)

Ps the Gerald Green response is just soooooo predictable Walker shows great face-up moves not just a bunch of fast break dunks

I think he should be playing over Giddens in all these criteria you mentioned he is just about on par with Giddens. Except Walker is younger, bigger and stronger than Giddens.

Had Walker not been hurt he would have certainly gotten the minutes Gidden is now receiving. Giddens has had more time with the team to move himself up the depth chart but I believe Walker to be the better player.

DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz
Players: Klay Thompson, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon
Next 3 picks: 4.14, 4.15, 4.19

I definitely thought all that was true coming out of college. Now after seeing Walker's out of control ways last year, desire to only make the flashy play and not the smart play and horrible defense, I'm not so sure. Giddens may not be playing great, but he's making few mistakes and playing within himself, even if he is doing it with trepidation.

hey! what right do you have to actually demand a player be able to play the game of basketball before we idolize him?

mods!!! can we ban such thinking from cb?  ;D
I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.
