Shannon Brown - not sure Shannon Brown can go left. He favors his right hand 99% of the time. Can he make any plays with his other hand? He favors the right side of the court. Is this his achiles?

[dolphinatik]

Oldies but goodies. Chris Bosh. We are lucky to have him. Expect him to play closer to the rim this year.

Didn't know Granger was such a good FT shooter. Looks like he'll take on the role of Ray Allen when it comes to FT.

The free throw shooting to me will be somewhat of an indicator of who gets the most plays called for them.

[radikalBaller]

Bosh is such a talented player, he has to potential to be our go to guy.

Miami Heat: Analyzing Khem Birch

http://hoopshabit.com/2014/09/17/miami- ... hem-birch/

The 21-year-old has signed a non-guaranteed contract with Miami and he will be out to impress coach Erik Spoelstra with some outstanding shot blocking ability that led to him recording 3.8 blocks per game last year, and being named Mountain West Defensive Player of the Year in consecutive seasons.

Then again, maybe it shouldn’t really be a surprise. After all, Birch possesses a 7’1” wingspan to make up for his lack of height as he is only 6’9”. Plus, he is also an extremely athletic big man as illustrated by the 35.5-inch vertical jump he recorded during the draft combine.

So with those kind of measurements, it’s really not all that shocking he’s a shot blocking machine – and he’s disciplined too, amassing just 2.3 personal fouls per game.

Furthermore, Birch is also an extremely hard worker and that is why he was able to haul in 10.2 rebounds last year, four of which came on the offensive end. In essence, he’s like a Chris Andersen but in a smaller frame (and with a LOT less ink).

Heck, even their offensive game is similar.

Just like Birdman, Birch is a great finisher around the rim as he converted better than 60 percent of his non-post-up attempts around the hoop. Granted it will be a lot harder to keep up such a high percentage in the pros since the competition is a tougher, but the drop shouldn’t be too significant.

Unfortunately, that’s about all he offers.

Due to his slight frame, he isn’t able to bully anyone around the post and he doesn’t have a jumper to make defenders respect him from the outside the lane. In other words; it’s either layups and put backs or nothing offensively.
