if you could compare Anthony Bennett to anyone in the NBA right now who would it be? ... does anyone have any recent VIDS on how he plays? really interested on how your team will be this year , hopefully u guys end up 7-8 seed and play the heat in the first round ... would be great entertainment!

I am calling Elton Brand type of career. Will average about 16 and 10 and make 3 three allstar games.

I could live with the Elton Brand comparison although AB is light years ahead when it comes to his jumper {including rang} and all around athleticism.

Bynum is also referred to as AB so misleading title.

when has this ever happened? Andrew Bynum is always shortened to Bynum.

Maybe, but Brand-level would be GREAT for the Cavs. If Bennett turns out to be a 20/10, with extremely good interior defense, be a good passer, and be a 50% plus shooter consistently to about 17 feet? Dang. That's on the way. Bennett may be able to shoot 3's coming out of the draft, but if he could focus on that mid-range like Brand, that'd be a GREAT #1 pick.

Paul Milsap/David West/Elton Brand hybrid...

And that's not a bad thing, by ANY means....

Maybe Bennett may not be a superstar MVP kind of guy, but if he turns into a West/Brand/Millsap hybrid, you've hit a triple with the #1 pick.

Nice video and I see why you started a new thread for it (uh, nope, no I don't).

he easily gets blocked like jj hickson

That tends to happen to young guys who go inside regularly. Especially is he's going to shoot as bad as he did today from the outside. Wait, heck he was getting blocked on 20ft jump shots. He's going to need to learn how to pump fake as well.

Yep, 12 minutes into his first pre-season coming off a shoulder injury that has clearly affected his conditioning we have a comparison. Well done!

I honestly saw more positives than negatives in his preseason debut. Phenomenal body. No way is this guy undersized. He is clearly not afraid to get physical under the basket. He had a few drives that showed a quickness that you don't expect from somebody his size. watching his very first NBA experience 3 weeks after being cleared to play, im excited what this kid is going to look like in a few months.

The comments in the Bucks game thread said that he was actually kind of overweight.
