If you don't think his drive and motor was high enough, this means a lot.

I really like the Kid after reading this article.

I've heard/read so many people knocking Olynyk for having T-Rex arms (wingspan smaller then his height) but the interesting thing to me is that all of the white 7 footers had similar measurements.  The positive is that Olynyks standing reach is 9' two inches higher then Zellers.  He also had 6% body fat which is clearly room for improvement.

The scary numbers are agility test...bad times and bad measurements.  Good players will find a way...or be out of the league in 3 years.
