For how raw Samb is suppose to be, he managed to be as much as a force as anyone he played in the same game with as far as bothering / rejecting shots. And his rebounding was fine too. Rag dolls don't get rebounds-they get pushed away. Further, Samb has only been playing basketball for about 4 years, and has aready gotten pretty good in such a short time. Just how do you know how much more he might progress by the end of camp? |
If Samb and Mejia are on the Pistons' roster come opening night, I'll give you your props. Samb is not ready for prime time. He does not have an NBA body and probably never will unless he forces himself to eat six meals a day and he lives in the gym. And you may be lending too much credence to what happens in Summer League. That's shallow water. The NBA is deep water.
Never said I didn't like Mejia or Afflalo. I just think Mejia won't play much in a Pistons' uni this season.
