Jordan Mickey - which player does he remind you of?

[hpantazo]

Still cant come up with a good comparison

Might sound wierd but after watching this video and the pick N roll with smart somewhere in the beginning, he sorta reminds me of the PF version of JEFF GREEN. Shot release is similar. Ball palming on drive to the hoop. decent shooting range. I am also someone who THINKS Jeff Green is an amazing player when he wants to be. IMO of course

Man...Cooley traveled twice on that play before Mickey stuffed him. The rest of the highlights are mostly Mickey abusing Brock Motum.

Idk about comparisons, but he can really play some basketball. With a few adjusts to his frame it wouldn't be a reach to say he could become a legit starter or valuable bench player. Its a shame that we have sourta like 900 power fowards

He reminds me of this kid from LSU named Jordan Mickey

Too early to tell, but he could be an Ibaka. Has great athleticism, impressive shot-blocking instincts and a reliable jumper. Just needs to fill out that frame so he doesn't get pushed around.

Looks like he had another solid game.    Mickey is a 1st round talent.  We got lucky he fell to 33

Holmes is a first round. Any idea why he slipped that hard, triboy?

His stats last season. But he was not himself for the last 7-8 games last season. He had a concussion

Holmes is a tough guy that can get you some points . i would sign and stash at the dleague

Taj Gibson?

Gibson is not as explosive

I will be on this thread making a comparison later on. As of now he looks like a guy who is thinking through his decisions rather than showing his plus length and athleticism.

So far his jumper has really impressed me, as has his ability to roll to the hoop. I think once we see him more comfortable you will see him rise up and dunk on the defense where so far he hasn't played above the rim a ton imo.

I think he'll be a rotation player in a couple years once he gains weight, increases his range and becomes more comfortable knowing where to be on defense. So far he's still learning when to commit to the block and when he should box out his man.
