I like Amundson. He's like a young Bo Outlaw.

Another hustling bigman for the Jazz who rebounds better than anyone on the Spurs outside of Duncan. Fantastic.

Plus the Jazz get another demographic friendly player to add to their roster.

I don't think he's a great rebounder, but you might be right about being better than the Spurs. Offensively, he's got alot to learn but he just has a knack for making things happen, and his no-step vertical really shows when he blocks shots in traffic.
