Following potential 2012 draftees

The real question is if Robinson is an upgrade for the Jazz at all, not including Jefferson. Will Robinson be better than Kanter or Favors? I just am not sure. I like his game but I see him as a more athletic Millsap without the range on his jump shot.

Considering at this age Millsap didn't have range outside of 10 feet, he is a bit ahead of curve. Robinson is also a good 2-3 inches taller than Millsap, and a bigger body.

In my mind Robinson doesn't have the potential that either of them do, but he seems most likely to fully realize his potential and maybe even surpass it.

How does one surpass their own potential?

Good post, need to spread some around first but I'll catch up with you.

Robinson is an athlete. Griffin is an elite athlete. Is there any other difference in them though?

I guess not stylistically. I think they are both modern day versions of Malone.

Well obviously it's impossible to measure potential with an instrument, but what I mean is surpass what the popular opinion of what his capabilities are. Millsap surpassed his potential. Obviously he had that inner potential all along, but no one but himself knew about it.

Thanks for the sincere answer to my sarcastic question. You're the bigger man.

There is the link if anyone wants to summarize any details (I doubt there are any).

Wrong thread?

Yup

So question, would you take Robinson if you had the chance? If you do, you would have to trade Sap. Also, 1 of Favors, Kanter and Robinson would be on the bench and not be a starter.

Probably not because if we have a chance to get him that means we are picking in the top 5. Either Miller or Barnes would still be on the board.

This. Not only are Miller and Barnes likely to be as good, or better, than TRob, but they're also a definite need.

Not sure how someone surpasses their potential.Obviously Millsap always had the potential to play the way he is.
