Message: [QUOTE="Dogbreath2U, post: 2110671, member: 42"] Would love to have another Jake, but less not downplay how good he was. As a college player at UConn, I would rank him up there close to Hasheem. Certainly not the intimidator that Thabeet was, but Jake was so good at keeping opponents away from the paint, played great positional and help defense, moved his feet well, made great outlet passes, and set the best screens. He understood the game much better than Hasheem given he played all his life and that is a big problem with our project bigs. I hope that Cobb can trim down and become a smart player who can learn to really hustle (unlike what we saw on the video). Even if there is no Jake available, I would take a Rod Sellers in a heartbeat. [/QUOTE]
