Rudy at P3: 12'3.5'' max vertical reach

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Apparently they did because Rudy doesn't forget. You gonna argue with Rudy bro?

You dont get to my level of arguing by being scared to argue anyone.

 

[VINYLONE]

Cy gon Cy.

Yeah, I guess so. Why would he continue arguing that point? Weird.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Not the same words, but they clearly aren't touting him as an athlete. Just admit that you were wrong. It's okay.

no

Yeah your level of arguing is denying facts and using your biased view to not listen to anyone. It's like the quote: "Don't argue with an idiot, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience."

[RandyForRubio]

I still don't get how half of you don't have Cy figured out yet. Dude cracks me up constantly.

Freakish

I'm so excited for more angry Rudy dunks next year. I laugh every time he does it. It's so awesome.

McGee's max vert was 32.5" at his draft combine.

Are you sure about that measurement?

Draft Express says it was 32.5

Why does everyone take their shirt off for this?

Less weight to lift. More aerodynamic. Sexier.

Some major points

- claims to be able to hit a 15 foot J consistently
- Working on post moves
- Working on strength in his lower body
- No mention of SL but will be playing for France

My personal favorite.
- spending 10 days in Germany with Nowitzki's shooting coach!!!

Gobert is so dialed in and addressing his exact areas of need.

Length, smarts, timing wins out everytime. That's what Mark Eaton did. Rudy's a better, longer athlete but he has similiar timing instincts. If he could get to Marks' anticipation skills he could be the best of all time.

Different era. The 3PT shot was still a novelty when Eaton came into the league. The game was also more physical so outside shots could be contested. Jazz forced players into the middle, where Mark was waiting. Not saying Eaton wasn't a great shot-blocker. He was amazing. But I'm not sure I'd call his anticipation or timing skills elite. When you're 7'4" you're going to block a LOT of shots, especially when teams aren't shooting 30% of their shots from beyond the arc.

Agreed. Eaton's timing was great because his hands were in the way almost all of the time. The dude was ginormous!
