First there was Adam Morrison, then there was Jimmer, and McBuckets. And now, The greatest of them all... FRANK THE TANK!

Morrison, Jimmer and Mcbuckets were all known as 1 trick ponies though. Kaminski does a few things really well.

Wasn't it rumored we were going to draft olynyk?

Yes this is correct... He was in the mix when we were at #14... Then we traded up.
 
Frank will be a liability on defense, but I don't think he will be Kanter bad. He's still a seven footer so he can provide some rim protection.

If we aren't planning on tomic coming over he is the guy in our range that I'd want. If we are certain tomic is coming then we can take one of the wings.

I also want to watch Portis a couple more times. He looked awful when I watched him but I don't think he can be that bad and put up the numbers he has.

Not really. All those dudes were multifaceted offensive players, especially Doug.

Perhaps I used 1 trick a little broadly. They were scorers and thats it. Jimmer and Morrison were shoot only pass never players. Mcdermot a little less so but not far off. None of them could pass, dribble, were not very good rebounders and were poor defenders. Kaminsky is a good rebounder, a good passer, a very good shooter ... he will struggle on D because of his athleticism but I think he can be hid a little better on the defensive end than a guard in the NBA.

This is good. I also think the Kanter comp is bad. I was never convinced Kanter was a good offensive player. He could make some shots but it felt like you had to force feed him the ball and he didn't make anyone else better. A guy who can shoot (Kanter couldn't) and pass (again Kanter not so much) will help out everyone else.

He's also goofy looking and white... it just feels like destiny to me.

I think people are writing him off too early. He's smart and I think he has some things working against him, but he'll figure out how to contribute.
