Ppl say he's like Hedo, but he's more aggresive scoring, especially in transition, he's not as tall, but he is stronger and he is more athletic...


I think the best comparison would be a stronger, less athletic Trevor Ariza

HIs defense is atrocious though? I didn't think so, from what I saw, but someone on the Raptors board is saying that.

I think maybe two people said "Yes!" that was it.

Most of us want a scouting report...

Isn't Hedo a playmaker? LK doesn't pass.

Yeah, that comparison was a little off in my opinion. Kleiza seems like a head down, drive to the basket kind of guy.

How is his defense?

I really hope you're not suggesting that Kleiza had anything to do with that WCF run a year ago. If you are, then you have absolutely no right in calling other people 'morons'.

You really need to calm down and think before you post. Also stop insulting others when you disagree with them. You are just making yourself look like a moron.

Anyone who watches basketball knows Denver failed in the playoffs because Kmart was injured, Karl was out, and most of the team gave up. And DJ should never be compared to AA.

Agree with Smitty, we should match it and use him as a trade asset. Most teams think he can help them out.

i can tell you this much about his defense, he'll rarely defend a person that he does not have to defend. meaning he will only get his counterpart sf/pf depending on the type of position he's playing. he's by the book in that way, offensively, he lost his 3 point shot a few percentage points from 07-08 going into 08-09, but got a mid-range game in europe, after all he led the euroleague in points.

go watch a few youtube videos of him dunking on other people in europe, you'll see that he's gotten tougher since his time playing for the nuggs. other than that, he could turn out a hedo type player, if he gets starter minutes, he can be the most improved player no doubt.

Thanks for the feedback. Not holding high expectations for this guy just hope that he becomes a solid rotation player.

of course not, why would he make a difference when the only people that helped in getting to the finals was melo, nene, kmart, billups, jones, smith, anderson, carter and balkman, but no way kleiza.

makes sense, because it's obvious this TEAM sport relies on two star players and nobody else.

dumbasses.

"yes!" on the toronto board = fine
