He is a lot more athletic than I realized. In college he only had to defend the paint because he has good defenders around him. But his versatility defensively surprised me. He was contesting 3 point attempts really well and was able to defend in space. Really safe pick for Portland
I see shades of Tim Duncan on defense. His leadership and elite defensive potential have lifted Portland’s ceiling. His picks and passing make him a positive force there, too. Great pick. Nice work🖖
That *REF* is either ignorant of the rules, or a down right cheater. ((((((( *HAND IS BALL* ))))))) So sick of these Refs narcissistic personality disorder! *That was CLEARLY a block*
@@davetaylor688 Donovan may very well have more offensive potential than Adams. This is not the same as SKILL. Fans often confuse potential and skill. Potential is unrealized skill. Skill is realized potential, understanding one's talents and using those to help the team. Clingan has the potential to reach Brooke Lopez status but Brooke spent years developing his outside shot while focusing on defense as his bread and butter. If he does that, he has a chance to be a quality starting center. I wasn't throwing shade at him by comparing him to Adams. Realistic comparison. Lopez is a best case scenario. Jokic, Embid, and AD are unfair comparisons because he hasn't show the basketball savvy to have an offense run through him.

You HAVE to make more videos dude. Great content, accurate analysis & context for the summer environment, please make more content! You’re great!
@@WhalesWatching I really appreciate that Whales 🙏 we will!
Solid breakdown! I’m really excited for this pick as a blazers fan
You should make more videos. This was the best breakdown on Clingan I've seen all summer.
@@derekmyers7880 thank you bro🙏🙏 I’m glad you enjoyed!
Great breakdown
@@justinah7400 thank you bro, glad you enjoyed 🙏
Good breakdown 👏
I love Clingan as a prospect, very reliable player.
@@louisveale thank you bro🙏 I appreciate you
Clingin seems like hes has potential to be an elite shot blocker in the NBA.

He blocked that shot with his left hand jumping off his left foot off the sprint. Great example of his mobility also.
His colab with avdija should be interesting
@@libr1711 I’m intrigued.
Avdija can pass, just like at wizards, deni can handle the ball for the second squad feeding cling
Two high IQ guys, both young. They're going to mix very well. Add Scoot, and you got 3 high level passers on the court at the same time.

His defense reminds me of Wilt. Offense looks like Shaq to me.
hes got elite size and has the iq on how to use it effectivly
So the Blazers got a guy that thinks he is Durant but in reality is Stephen Adams.
his got way more skill than Steven Adams
