How good can Anthony Davis get?

A lot of people have been comparing Joel Embiid to Hakeem. But it got me thinking, Davis is probably the closest thing to Hakeem we have seen. He has the all around game like Hakeem. Maybe not the same exact style but pretty close. I think this guy is a HOF in the making (CarolinaJazz is rolling over in his grave.)


What you say?
 
Not like Hakeem at all IMO. Completely different players. Hopefully Davis blazes his own path cuz he definitely has the tools to do so.
 
Not dream-like, but entirely legit. Will maybe even be one of those transcendental players.
 
Seems like I hear twice as much injury as I do remarkable play.

The guy's a beast, when he plays. If he can stay healthy, you're looking at a career similar to David Robinson or Patrick Ewing.

How is he not? He's got the shot blocking and ball stealing skills. Frames are similar. Soft touch. Can hit outside. Hes not doing the dream shake but has nice back to the basket skills. Athletic. Dont let the brow distract you.

They are the same!

hakeem was a true center and always played like a true center. even with ralph sampson, hakeem was the true center.
brow to me is more KG/marcus camby defensively and bit of tim duncan/chris bosh offensively. like TD, he can post you up(not as good as TD, of course), and like bosh he can step out side of 15ft and make those shots. add to that brow can put the ball on the floor and actually dribble because he played point in high school before. so he is alot of dudes packed into his versatile body. he is 6ft 9 barefoot, but has a great wing span with very good foot speed. and dude's defensive instinct is off the chart. he doesn't have hakeem's overall lateral quickness, but he has hakeem's straight line speed, and quick first jump ability.

whatever he is, brow is a real deal.
