He's going to get humiliated until he develops an outside game.
-
He's a 6 8ish power forward without a great shot or handles. But the draft sucks this year.
-
:zzz:
-
Dude put up 18 and 17 and UK's NBA frontline in the Title Game. Yeah he will really suck.
-
Needed one more year

Agreed. 6'8" forwards that can dunk are a dime-a-dozen in the League. Reminds me a lot of a taller Dominique Sutton.

Good description. More tats and a bigger body but pretty much the same player.

I guess it is kind of related. I was laying in bed last night. Could not sleep. Kept thinking about all of Dom's dunks during the 2010 Phillips 66. Nice memories.

Hope he can stay out of jail until the draft.
-
Hope he does well for #teamboxturtle
-
there isn't a chance in hell that robinson is 6'8"
just a fwiw
-
I always looked at Robinson as a less efficient / more loose cannon'y version of David Hoskins.
-
listening to the press conference right now. my guess is that robinson has down's syndrome.
-

I just hope he stays sober long enough to put some of his signing bonus into a trust fund for his little sister. After that, it's in God's hands.

probably going to waste his money on drugs and die like his mom

Projected #2 overall on NBADraft.net.
NBA Comparison: Patrick Patterson
Strengths: The 6’9, 240 lb Robinson is an impressive physical specimen, with nice strength, a good frame, and adequate length as a prototype PF prospect for today’s NBA … Robinson is also a great athlete, with very good explosiveness and quickness for a guy his size ... Runs the floor well … A high energy player who competes hard, Robinson was able to see time and have relatively great production behind two 1st round picks in the Morris twins at his main positions … Will cut to the basket for high % looks … He can get points around the rim by way of his motor, and his athleticism makes him a good finisher ... Great rebounding skills, with outstanding per-minute rebound rates, and will go out of his immediate area to chase down shots … Not afraid of physical contact down low and will throw his weight around on both ends … Shows signs of a developing mid-range jump shot…Has the 1st step to be a mismatch threat as a straight-line slasher against slower PF’s … Can get free throw opportunities due to his aggressive nature … Not bad defensive ability, and will get a block or so every now and then … Willing to put his nose in for charges … Ability to play through all the distractions that surrounded him last year speaks to his mental toughness … Still has substantial upside remaining … Very good role player potential for the next level as a PF ...
Weaknesses: Robinson is a bit unpolished a player and needs to refine his game some on both ends of floor … He isn’t very skilled as a player on either end yet and is a bit reliant on his athleticism and physical tools … Doesn’t have a reliable post game and can be slowed down significantly when his athleticism is matched by the person he’s matched up against at PF … As a face-up player, his ball-handling skills aren’t very good and his jumper isn’t quite good enough to keep the defense all that honest … Defensively, Robinson competes hard, but he’s also a bit foul prone and will have to get that ironed out before he’s ready to play legit NBA time at PF … Robinson likely will have to iron out his polish on both ends a lot more to be the rotation player in the NBA he could be … Has a lot to prove after not playing much his first 2 years, and will have to show that he’s capable of being as productive as his adjusted stats indicate, while also keeping a rebuilding Kansas team as the crown jewel in the Big 12 ...
Overall: Robinson has a lot to like … He’s impressive physically, athletically, and he plays as hard as any PF in the country … He was productive when he took the floor for KU in limited time, a hard worker who improved a lot as a Soph., and he’s mentally tough after playing through injuries and even the death of his mom and still being productive, and has a developing skill set, but he has to work on polishing his skills more … The potential is there for him to be a solid NBA PF though and he is a likely 1st round pick in the 2012 draft ...
Notes: Measured 6'10 (in shoes) 240 lbs, with a 7'1 wingspan at the 2011 Amare Stoudemire Skills Academy.

oscar would not approve. Somebody's going to get a talking to if he gets wind of it. Not stern by any means and there won't be any eye contact, but words will be squeaked meekly and in their general direction.
