KG is an elite rebounder, and a very good passing big man. He's also always been an efficient scorer, but this year especially his fg% has been GREAT!

On defense his recognition is second to none. There may not be a better big in the league at rotations and guarding the pick and roll. If you pay attention, there's many a time when he literally pushes a teammate into the right spot.

He affects the other team whether it's out on the perimeter or down in the paint, he has to be accounted for at all times. Basically, he's the most versatile big man in the game. And he does it on both ends.

I love his use of the glass, I think that is going to expand his offense so that he becomes a real force in terms of scoring. His fade-away already is almost unstoppable-- except for that play last night, but he pump faked the next time and drew a foul. He has Hakeem like potential in terms of offensive ability.

There is no quit in the kid. He only plays at one level, all out intensity. What a strong heart he has, both figuratively and literally. Pumping blood down those long limbs, KG is a freak of nature!

When he goes to work he's unstoppable... Did you noticed some MJ moves during game 2? :o Sometimes He looks like a guard in a 6'11" body, I'm still wandering HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE...

its good KG is finally getting some love....but its also good that KG is playing in the paint. his whole career i have been begging him to do that b/c he is UNSTOPPABLE in the paint, more so than duncan. dunacn jus has a few moves, but KG, when he plays with the right mindset, has a whole array of moves. when he gets within 5 feet of the basket, u know its a guaranteed 2 points at least. i love it when he plays selfish. keep it up big ticket.

In the paint he misses a solid hook, or at last he don't use this move alot, and a cross step move, that's mostly an european big type of move(the best offensive move of Dino Radja). But also he has a thousand moves more than your regolar big man.

He was tired of hearing everyone say they that he is pretty much equal to Rasheed.

Of course he himself said playing Sheed is like looking in the mirror...

Since game 7 against the Cavs he's been super aggressive, and now against the Detroit he's actually playing in the low post, and has been spectacular, that's exactly what we need and it makes me think we can win it all again...
