Looks nice but Gerald Green could do that, too.

Any mixes about him? I find only Bodybuilders and other stuff if I search for Paul George on youtube on the first few pages and right now I'm too lazy to search further. :lol:

I can't be sold on dunks and one crazy block alone.. Athleticism by itself doesn't make a great basketball player. I'm not saying he can't things well besides dunking but it's hard to tell from these videos.

Um, no? I'd say it's pretty evident from his play why people covet him.

I don't really see what you're trying to achieve here.

Don't bother with this guy, he has nothing to offer.

I haven't seen enough of him either. He has very impressive #'s for a freshman though. He shot alot of 3's at almost 45%. Add that to his athleticism which is evident from the youtube videos. He's certainly a guy that we should keep an eye on next year. We have 3 potential picks in the 1st and a black hole at shooting guard.

I did a write up about George in the 2010 prospect thread a while back. What I found most interesting was that he was not even on DX's radar -- as in they didn't even have a profile on him yet. Strange, no?

Conspiracy?

I've been watching a lot of Dexter lately, I could probably crack it given enough plastic wrap and animal tranquilizer.

You're a Knicks fan? Well that explains a lot, mainly the ridiculous arrogance. What are you, the leading authority on this guy? What gives you the right to come in here acting all uppity because somebody wants to discuss a player? It's probably wrong of me to feed the troll, but you are getting on my nerves.

As for the latter part, I've seen him play around 9-10 games, all of which I streamed online. Admittedly 9-10 games is not a large sample size, but it's likely more than most people have seen. The games I've seen include his 29 point 10 rebound performance against Boise State, his game early in the season against UNLV but I don't recall the exact points scored though I'm pretty sure he was in the 20s, and another game where he went 5-7 from beyond the arc against the Pacific Tigers. I've loosely followed the Bulldogs for no reason other than George.

He has a lot of attributes that would fit the Timberwolves. Firstly, we'd gain an outside shooter and a solid athlete, something we're lacking besides Ellington and Flynn respectively. It is not unfair for people to say 'We need Paul George', especially with our holes at the 2/3...

Please return from where you came. It's clear that your only purpose here is to cause trouble. I'm sure there are some other boards where you can spew your cantankerous, highly-strung nonsense when people are trying to discuss a player you deem yourself the authority of.
