I want to add JJ Hickson to the list. I dont like any of those guys do be anything more than good or great bench players.

Jason Thompson is the next dominant Power Forward. Expect him to start at the 4 for Redeem Team Redux in 2012

He shot 38% for his last 10 games of the seasons outside of the rim (this is excluding the 3 pointers he took for some reason as well), I wouldn't consider that GREAT either.[/quote]

Compare that to Channing Frye, for example, who isn't considered, apparently, a rebounding PF but who really is a GREAT shooter. His last five games had him at 28-40 away from the rim. Millsap, over the last five, was 5-14. Yet Frye's Per36 rebounds were 9.5, against 9.7 for Millsap. His TRB% was 15.5, against 16.5 for Millsap. Yet in this comparison, despite the fairly close rebounding numbers, he isn't considered apparently because if he were no particular claims about Millsap's shooting prowess would be made.

I understand you like Millsap, Fivas, but how exactly are you defining "rebounding PF" and "GREAT"?

You're looking too far in to this using logic. Go watch some youtube vids or something.
