Tomic's highlights, he might be the solution for lakers big

i'm very impressed with how Tomic developed in europe since jazz drafted him, he has increased his weight to 260 lbs from 220 lb, considering Gasol is only 250, he could actually outmuscle Gasol in the post and have enough length to bother him. This guy has the total offensive repetorie, jump hook, spins, reverse-moves, fakes.

here are some of his highlights:

noticed that he usually play in the high post rather than the low post, he could really compliment big Al well..


also notice in the first defensive end, he barely jumped to block a shot, that could be an asset jazz really need.
 
I say we bring tomic over and see how he compares to fes. Itd be terrible for us to trade his rights and see him be the next Drazen Petrovic
 
A couple things. He does look like he has put on some weight, but is he really at 260 now?
Also in the NBA he will be immediately swarmed when he gets the ball in the post.
Euros seem to give him time to get off his shot.
Plus he's not making every shot in the videos.
 
are u kidding? Fes has absolutely no offensive skils compare to Tomic, Tomic might be the next Yao minus 4 inches.

NBA and Euroball are two different realms of basketball. If Fes was in the similar situation with a Euroball highlight reel people would call him the next white shaq due to his blocking prowess and huge bodymass. Ante Tomic ahs potential though which is why i suggest we bring him over epecially in light of these okur inuries.
