His stamina is pretty damn good now too! Carroll Dawson (Asik's big man coach) is a magician

[Dbrog]

I would be absolutely shocked if Asik became as good as Noah (numberwise), but now it doesn't seem so out of the question

get used to it. he had a 14.9 offensive rebound rate last year (2nd in the league). wouldn't surprise me at all if he finishes top 5 in rebounding.

defense is also elite. good in the post, has great agility and quickness to pair with his instincts on help defense and is also adept at guarding the P&R well.

when he & taj were on the court together, they were rebounding/defense hounds.

as far as stamina...it's always been there. the big man coach is going to have his work cut out for him on the offensive end. he has to have his shot set up and his hands aren't great. he does finish strongly at the rim though.

asik's out for blood *****

Linsanity is over. He'll still put up solid numbers but he'll never again even come near to what he did during Linsanity.

Yup, the little hype train that could...

He had two weeks or so where he was MVP-worthy. I don't think he'll be like that from here on out but I didn't see him do anything that seemed completely unsustainable. If Houston is willing to live with a ton of turnovers a 17/8 or better season is what I'm expecting. But if they feel like his TOs are killing them then they'll have a 10/5 part-time starter.

actually i think he played great last night. Him and kevin martin looked great together. lin is alot stronger and faster than last season, his handles is alot better also. i think he will have a handful of linsanity type of games this season.

He has looked average in both gamers so far but it's the pre season so it dosent matter. We need him to play well in the regular season.

7 assists to 2 TOs vs the Hornets.

That in itself is a sign of good things to come.

9 pts 7 assists 2 st in 20 min? not bad imo
