No where near as athletic but does have some of Jake's skills. If you watched him, did you notice his court vision? The first time I saw Jake play I said he "liked" to pass. I would definitely say that also about Avila. I think his abilities to shoot, dribble and pass could be very beneficial, even considering his lack of quickness.
For me, that's Matt Renn. Dude moved each foot like they were 40lb bags of concrete. Renn was successful because of his toughness, grit, lack of fear, and his craftiness around the basket.
While that it a colorful description, it is probably the most inaccurate description of a player that I have ever encountered.
Wow. I don't know how anyone could not recognize his his toughness, grit, lack of fear, and his craftiness around the basket. What did you encounter when you played against him?
Absolutely. He was, of course, just a JR in the games I saw. He is a boy. 3 years from now he will be a man.
Yes, he transferred from PU to BSU. His dad used to beat him with a broom when he was rebounding and shooting.
I was referring only to the colorful and amazingly inaccurate description of his foot speed. I concur with the other attributes. I should have been more specific; however, there was nothing particularly creative or colorful in the other descriptions.
You said you encountered him, like you played against him, and the implication is that he was quick against you. So you didn't play against him in HS or College?
Au Contraire! Grammatically, it was the "description of the player" not "the player" which I categorized as the most inaccurate I had encountered.
Awesome!
