Nate Robinson: Bazz and Boat

[Kitaman]

Nate is giving me new-found hope for small ballers. Boat's game more resembles Nate, especially with the hops. What I see now is Nate is removing all stigma attached to small ballers, good timing for Bazz and Boat. I just hope both are watching his game intensely and using his positives as a benchmark.

Neither one in my opinion is on Nate's level but both are younger and with a lot of potential. The thing is that Nate is expendable but his tenacity, perseverance and never giving up is keeping him in the league. That attutude can bode well for both our players, especially if the road gets tough at the next level.

In any event both players can learn from him and his game. Bottom line Nate is a very good ball player with the heart of a lion.

BTW: I feel bad for our boy Ray, that was insulting to an HOF.

Nate is making himself some money in the playoffs, but I've always thought he's got one of the lowest bball IQs in the league. The biggest difference between Nate and Bazz and Boat, though, is that Nate is just a freak athlete. He played football at UW and is much, much stronger than either one of those guys will ever be.

Yeah, Nate is on a way different level athletically even than Boatright. That one time he glassed Yao Ming's dunk attempt...good grief.

Being so close to not even receiving an offer, what nates doing is remarkable . he said he would have tried out for the Seahawks if he didn't, which is just absurd. good thing he's around making playoff basketball exciting.
As far as the comparison to our guards, maybe a little with boat- his ability to break down his man. thing is boat needs to work on the consistency of his jumper.

If you could make nate robinson 6-8 you'd call him Lebron James. I think unfortunately Robinson is probably the exception to the rule in most people's minds.

Nate is also built like Barry Sanders and Boat is built like a middle schooler.

Also, Boat was tweeting about Nate a bit last night. So he is taking note!
