Yep, it was b/c he was bigger than everyone, yea that's it
... FAB is the tallest DLeaguer EVER! Yep, it's b/c they weren't taking enough jumpers, that's it...
You guys will try to downplay anything this guy does b/c it's the DLEAGUE but if it was as easy to do then why did he beat the league record all time by 3 blocks? Was he the only guy ever that was one of the taller players on the court? Just makes no sense!
It took Stiems to age 27 to even make an NBA team for real and all he could do was block shots! Are you seriously saying that Melo couldn't do the same? Get outta here!!! The guy at least has as much instinct for swatting balls as Stiems did and he is only 22! So get out my sight with the negativity!
Edit: Stiems only full season of DLeague action stats
09-10 45 games averages: 28 mins, FG% 54, 82% FTs, 7rbs, 1 assist, .7 Stls, 3.6 blocks, 9pts
Fab Melo
12-13 9 game averages: 24 mins, FG% 50, 50% FTs, 6rbs, .2 assist, .4 Stls, 3.3blocks, 8pts
In 4 more minutes per game Stiems has only a slight advantage in everything except for FT% where he obviously was/is miles better than Fab (well, I couldn't find Stiems' first 9 game averages so yea 45 games to 9 is kinda weird but w/e)!
