I'd evaluate Waters' comparisons so far, like this:
Frank-Triche: Pretty spot on. Triche was a 4 year starter and was more consistent early in his career, but their numbers aren't far off. Position difference aside, this one was solid, imo.
Tyus-Donte: Again, pretty accurate. Donte had more hype and played more as a Frosh but, comparing Soph Tyus to Frosh Donte, both were volume scorers who benefited from big minutes.
Chukwu-Fab: Chukwu will never be as good on offense as Fab was in his final season, which isn't a surprise to anybody and I doubt was the intention of Waters' comparison. On defense, though, the comparison is solid. Chukwu didn't benefit from extra minutes inflating his stats like the other guys.
OB-Warrick: I would think this comparison is the one that sparked the idea for this thread. Warrick was a special player who had a lot of intangibles that are hard to compare. Will OB swat shots like Warrick or dunk like Warrick? No. OB's stats were probably the most inflated by playing time. That said, he probably does have more offensive potential than Warrick, who didn't show a deep jumpshot until his Senior season, if memory serves me. Warrick was poetry in the post, though, which is an aspect of OB's game that needs some work. Stylistically, these guys are a little too different to warrant the comparison, imo. Without looking at the stats, I'd think KJo or Nichols would be closer comparisons, maybe even Fair.
Sidibe-Rick: Tough comparison to make, knowing that Sidibe was injured practically the entire season. Sidibe did show flashes of a good interior game on offense and potential on defense. If he stays healthy, he could be better than Rick. I don't think that's a stretch.
