Message: [QUOTE="RF2044, post: 2220077, member: 40"] I don't think that is a "unicorn" at all -- just somebody who with better physical attributes who is more defensively predisposed than White / Gillon were as players. Thorpe has the tools, will be interesting to see whether he's a better defender than last year's guys as a one year plug-and-play. But that wouldn't make him a unique case by any means. I don't think that it takes multiple years for guys to pick up our zone defense -- some are just better at it or work harder at it or have higher hoops IQ than others. [/QUOTE]
