Bebe Named Top Defender in Spain

[hazer]

Feel like he's still a couple of years from starting though. Could he become our Noah?

I want to bring him over. I feel like he'll improve faster here.

I think he takes the Ayón roster spot next year. Which would mean more 4 and less 5 for Moose...

Sap, Horf, Scott, Antić, Moose ain't a bad 5-deep squad of 4s.

I had to read that twice... .

It's all in the translation.

Love seeing the recognition. Defensive big men are always valuable.

I hope Bebe is on this team next season. Grab some boards, tip out rebounds block or at least alter some shots.

IN SPAIN

As for the NBA, Bebe is still a pole bean that would get abused by 80% of PF/C's in the league. Put another 15 lbs on Bebe, then we'll talk NBA.

He is another year or two away

Eh.... he is the same size as Marcus Camby and that didn't stop him from being a force in the paint defensively. And in today's NBA there are not too many C's that have the offensive game to abuse anyone.

Aren't the Spanish leagues considered to be the 2nd best basketball in the world?

That's my thinking and the ones that have the game to abuse opposing centers will abuse horford, brand, muscola too.

Noel, Sanders, Brandon Wright, Anthony Randolph, Anthony Davis, etc.

My very first statement mentioned Bebe needs a couple more years. Spain is the top league outside the NBA. Bebe is an inch taller and only 10lbs lighter than Noah. With a 7'6" wingspan and runs like a deer..

What country do you think played the USA in the gold medal game in the last 2 summer olympics?

[Ebert]

Weight is undoubtedly a problem, but I'm not very concerned about it. I think it's more important for him his wingspam, jump and speed. As he gets older he will become stronger.

NBA rules always help this type of player like Lucas. He will be able to run much more the floor.

Same was said about Anthony Davis.... It can be important in 1on1 situations, but to have a center who can switch in Pick&Roll situations and defend swingmen when they go to the rim can't be something bad...

[JTB]

There's no reason for him not to be here and playing with the hawks. I'm so sick of the hawks sending players to other countries and RARELY bringing them back!

We have nothing to lose! Bring this kid back! Smh
