Uhh.. have you seen this 7"3 white dude who won all-star skills challenge, whos super weak but still is extremely good on BOTH ends? Booker is a chucker with worse shooting% than this 7"3 dude, just imagine if this white dude grows into his body and gets strong... holy F**K!@
Skills challenge is a gimmick, like Nate winning the dunk contest only not as translatable to actual NBA play. His offense isn't "extremely good" It's "Good with potential for extremely good". Agree he's good on defense.

its a romanian deadlift and hes clearly doing do it for strength endurance, higher reps lower weight, versus power or strength. also the dude is huge and biomechanically hes at a great disadvantage for dead lifting because of his limb length so heavy deadlifts from the ground would put him at a much higher risk of injury and not giving him much more benefit. you should be crediting the knicks strength and conditioning staff for taking good care of him instead of mocking the amount of weight you THINK he should be doing
edit: sorry replied to the wrong person, meant to be directed at toholewithsoul
He's a professional athlete. if I'm correct that he is in fact deadlifting two 45lb plates with a 45lb bar, that's kinda pathetic by most standards.
again refer to my previous post. i think i explained it pretty clearly. hes a pro athlete, not a professional weight lifter. he needs to train to increase athleticism in relation to the demands of basketball, not to pack on muscle and look good.
edit: again look to noah syndegaard when he was left to his own devices to train....

He's overrated. He scored 70 in a meaningless game with a loss.

His defense consists of blocking shots.
His man defense is not good.

Nah, lets get the one dimensional player who can drop 70 in a loss and is a sieve on defense
