I agree. Gilchrist will be as good as Dr. J (who is my neighbor, by the way).

Ha...if you think that's bad you should check out Eric Bledsoe. His first press conference I immediately felt bad for Kentucky teachers, well, not really cause I knew he wasn't gonna do any school work anyways.
Collective 3.15 GPA since Cal's arrival. Keep on hatin' though!
Ha, ok I know nothing about Kentucky specifically but for a lot of big name programs in NCAA Basketball and Football, these kids GPA's need to be taken with a grain of salt. In a lot of cases they have a personal tutor for each class that basically does the work for them......on top of taking some of the easiest classes known to man. "Sleeping in till noon then eating a burrito 1010" could very well be a required class for Kentucky freshman that have zero intention of getting their degree.

Are you telling me that Eric Bledsoe had a 3.15 GPA or that Kentucky BBall has had a 3.15 since Cal has arrived? Because I find both very hard to believe, especially since the year Beldsoe was at Kentucky, the bball team had a 2.025 GPA in the fall semester and a 2.18 in the spring. And that was with John Wall boosting it up with a 3.5...
Gillie's killing it and his measurement's are in from the Lebron Skills Academy;
6'7.5
228 (4.9% body fat)
6'10 wingspan
He's still very young. I'd say it's very conceivable he'll be coming into the league as a 6'8 - 6'8.5 245lb pure SF with a mountain of skill. I think the Pippen comparison is a very good one.

That DX Gilchrist interview is just PAINFUL. But intelligence doesn't manifest itself exclusively through speech. Probably the most brilliant person I know isn't very elaborate or quick off the draw when talking, uses bizarre terminology and just says weird stuff sometimes. But I've never seen someone work with math and/or engineering like he does. And when he can write his words out, he'll knock you over.
Getting to the point, Gilchrist seems to have a speech impediment.
