If everything goes right for him? Better rebounding Chris Bosh.

I wish his team would give him touches every once in a while.

I am looking at guys like Zbo, West, Scola. Vonleh to me is a below the rim big man who will be all about feel/craftiness/gaining and holding position against defenders with his body well + probable perimeter range.

He reminds me a bit of Bosh as well. Bosh was more skilled and refined, he's more agile and more intelligent, but Noah has that same smooth touch. Noah seems like a dumber version of Bosh and maybe a bit stronger.

Bosh is way, way longer than Vonleh.

If Vohleh has the potential to be better than Bosh then he would be a lock for a Top 3 pick

black bart wrote:Fischella, you are a ltitle bias. SEC is a much weaker conference and you said julius randle would dominate the big 10 which is arguably the strongest conference. I don't see any evidence that randle and kentucky wildcats would perform better against wisconsin,, michigan state, iowa st, ohio st, and minnesota. On the contrary, I see the opposite. I don't understand why you even said that SEC is a better conference than big 10.

Biased.

Vonleh is not stronger than Bosh, he has an stronger lower body, but he is also slower and less polished.
I can see a poor man Rasheed with Vonleh, which would be good.
He has potential as a two way player.

first time i've heard that Sheed comparison. I think that's a pretty good one actually.

i'd have vonleh's ceiling closer to a shareef abdur-rahim with better defense. his shot looks promising and i think he has just enough footwork and mobility to wheel around defenders.

Chris Bosh is longer?
http://www.nba.com/media/bulls/lottery_vitals_03.pdf

Nearly identical measurements as Noah, but Noah is only 18 and has plenty of room to grow. Kid has a lot of offensive potential... Great length, great touch, and a really nice looking shooting stroke. He is definately not a tweener either 6'9ish w/o shoes and a 7'4 wingspan he is definitely big enough to play PF.

Bosh, 6'11.5, 7'3.5, 9'1
Vonleh, 6'10, 7'4, 8'10

Yeah, Bosh is much longer.
You can't play Center in the NBA with a 8'10 reach, with a 9'1? yea you can, Vonleh is all neck.

I like the Reef comp. also, but Vonleh has better potential in defense and I don't know if he will be a 20ppg scorer.

i don't see the bosh comparisons
bosh was just so gifted offensively already in college.
at least vonleh's mechanics aren't broken so he has room to improve, but still very unpolished.

A slight worse version of Al Horford maybe?
