He is number 22 in the white. Looks like he is in way better shape, and his hops look amazing. Look how easily he is getting his head to the rim. He's starting to physically look like the freak we all hope he becomes.

Other than getting dunked on in the beginning, this is the best news of the off season. Dwightesk, no doubt.

thanks for the post.

It is however a lot easier to dunk when no one is guarding you.

Regardless, you get an idea of what he looks like physically now, much less round, and far more defined than he was last year.

I'm jealous of those who are going to the exhibition tonight. Get to see Favors and Kanter. Hopefully we get some good reports back, and maybe someone will film it.

Just got back from the game....Derrick and Alec Burks were by far the most impressive players there, imo. Derrick is bulked up and uber-defined. Still not HUGE, but he's significantly bigger than last year, much stronger looking in game action, and can still get up and throw down.

Burks.....wow. That's all I can say. I've hated the guy since day one, but he really impressed me tonight.

Curry, Evans, Alac, and Favors were all a lot of fun to watch.

Ya Favors look awesome in the charity game. The biggest difference I noticed from him was his confidence.

He was out talking with fans a lot, seemed really at ease with the media and on the court he looked very, very confident. I think he is going to have a big time breakout year next season.

Marshon Brooks was drafted this year, so the Favors thing must be a typo.

Yeah, this game was only a few days ago if I am correct.

It was the Monster Slam Exhibition on November 5th in Atl, GA.

Dwightesque? We must be seeing different highlight clips because none of that looks particularly athletic.
