Does anyone else see a bit of Timmy in Okafor?

[apalisoc_9]

Porzingis as a young and such tall and long player with great mobility, technique and natural ability has much more potential as a two way player that reminds Tim...

4 rebounds a game reminds you of tim?

Small moah kobyz.

I didn't meant he reminds Tim now, you smartass, but with the right devolpment he has the mold and potential to be great inside outside, two way player that could remind Tim much more than Okafor or if you want any young prospect that came to the league in recent history...

I think he will be a 20-10 player but will be similar to AL Jefferson. It was still stupid for the Lakers to pass on a 20-10 player since those guys are rare commodities.

if okafor gets carried to multiple les, yes

Come on Ed. You can do better than that

[SuperCam]

td was top5 p layer in rookie season and for next 10years

dont see that happening with okafor

tim was 22, big Oak 19.

Okafor is a more athletic version of Greg Monroe than Tim. Dude is a mediocre defensive rebounder/shot blocker & has slow feet on defense.

Something about the rook just reminds me of a young Tim. Does anyone else get that vibe?

Maybe, some of his ability to move with the ball well around the elbow and the wings. On the post and defense though, no. He doesn't have the length and he'll probably have issues with stamina.

Nah

The guy that reminds me Timmy the most OFFENSIVELY is Brook Lopez. His post game is absolutely great to watch, much like Timmy's. Okafor reminds me Al Jefferson tbh

Brook reminds me very little of Tim.

Prime Duncan was one of the GOAT big men passers. LLopez is one of the worst passers in the league.

A late-prime Tim (04-08) reminds me more of Brad Daugherty, though obviously he was better.

On offense sure.

Add in blocked shots and rebounds too, Lopez is not near him on that end of things either. I know he was talking offensive end though but had to throw that in there talking overall game.

[Spurtacular]

Okafor is an undersized center who probably wouldn't make an all-star game in a strong big man era. As it is, he may get a few all star selections before it's said and done.

Brook reminds me Duncan when it comes to POST MOVES, not other aspects. I should have narrowed it down to POST PLAY, so my bad. That's where I see them similar somehow.

There isn't anyone really similar overall to Tim Duncan in the league atm. I'm not even sure if we will ever see a guy similar to him. Too hard to be that fundamental and that good on both ends.

[Kuvai]

Yeah I saw a bit.. May be 5% of DUNCAN's potential...

[phxspurfan]

Everybody's said that. But everybody said that about Dwight Howard (no idea why, as he's completely different) and Greg Oden (lulz).
