Fab Melo = Tyson Chandler

[Cuse4]

Think we're going to see a ton of the lob passes to Fab this year, kind of like Paul to Chandler back in the day

Think it's a little early for that comparison. Chandler is a ridiculous athlete.

not comparing them ... comparing the way he may be used this year offensively ... probably shouldn't have used that title for the post

The only guy we're impressed with so far. Everyone else? Playing like its an exhibition. Lots of raw talent on the team though. We'll be a top 10 team.

I cant believe how much different fab looks. His game has made a positive turn too.

Texted from my Droid...

Fab is like Shaq out there ...

Fab is making the greatest leap forward...it is going to be scary how good he is

He still has to do it against bigger opponents but he appears to now have a complete game. He has a nice 10-15 foot jumper for a big man, his reaction time on defense and rebounds is significant;y better and he runs the court like a gazelle (for a big man). Was very impressed by the new Melo.

The play where he tracked down the CSULA player and got there for the goaltend. Wow - did he cover some serious ground there or what.

 

[Garbs]

his confidence is only going to grow each game, he looks a lot better

And now the weight room. Oh yes, two hands for rebounds.

I couldnt watch the game tonight and reading post-game comments is now making me a little nervous. Fab made the greatest jump in the offseason but is that about it? Triche is the same player. Dion is the same player. BMK is better. The freshmen are freshmen. KJo isnt 100% yet. Everyone got in better shape. I was hoping for more... Why do I have a feeling I need to temper my expectations for this teams?

When Fab took a loose ball rebound in the first half and spun with his elbows tucked in and attempted to dunk over two people it was impressive. But just as impressive of almost making that was the two freethrows after. So much good to say of Melo.

It was an exhibition. We lost 2 years ago to LeMoyne in an exhibition and that team was pretty darn good until AO went down. I'm not worried, we are definitely a top 10 club and very well could be top 5.

Fab melo is a brazilian born player who needs to shave.

It's the development of a big man.. Sky is the limit but big men are just tougher to develop and now with guys jump early all the time everything is put on fast forward, FAB will be developing for the next 3-4 years, It's just how it works but we want it NOW!!!
