I disagree somewhat.
It's my opinion that the more versatility KP develops early on, the faster he'll mature into an all-star.
Right now it seems that the cross-over is a little quicker, working nicely with a nice looking 4 footer or bank. PK has been working on his low post face up game since last season. This cross-over move soon enough will become hard for an any opposing 4 to guard other than the elite defenders.
What is agreed upon is that when guarded by a small he needs to run and get position on the block. A running pull up in the lane (ala Dirk), or quick head fake, shake and bake and strong to the basket.
But mannnn, I would love to have KP shooting 200 baby hooks with both hands a day.
Sht, I would have HernanGomez do the same.
That right there a baby hook should be a MAJOR part of his arsenal.
At 7'3", KP's FG% should be over 50% with a basement of 45% (yuck). I'd like to see him in between 50-55%.
I doubt KP gets to be that efficient when a lot of his shots are 3pters. He needs a close/midrange money shot.

KP got no game.
