I honestly don't know how someone can be a #2 pick behind Griffin and never pan out. He was great in college, I thought he'd be a nice defender in the NBA... but the guy is crap. He's worse than Aaron Gray.
I think there's still something left in him though... it's going to take a lot of work by the coaching staff, but I do think he can be a decent backup C in the NBA with his size and timing on D. I wouldn't mind taking a chance on him.
The guy was a phenomenal shot blocker in the NCAA. I think he might hold some all-time records. Never really watched him much though, so I don't know why his defense hasn't made any impression during his pro career.
