No big deal. Just like guys that explosive around rim. I name 5 positives bout him, wanna talk about them?

Me and you both its been hard past years making them though. EVERY position on team has struggled with shots around rim. Going for dunk be aggressive wouldn't hurt to try once

No, because those all made sense.

I prefer dunking also. Not a big deal or deal breaker by any means, just a preference.

have no problem with guys drawing contact. Really think Shaq would be a much better player if he would draw contact instead of trying to avoid it. I think players today rely on atheletism rather then body position and fundamentals. My point is rather then throwing a occasional dunk down I would rather have a fundamentally sound player who knows how to score and draw fouls.

Hopefully Shaq, JL, Clark and DeBerry dunk enough that our guards don't have to worry about it.

It's hard to be too excited bc I didn't even know who Cobb was when I woke up this morning, but I like the idea of killing 2 birds and getting a ball handler and shooter in 1 player. I didn't know anyone besides Devonte Graham was out there this spring at this position.

That's my point. Young guys today don't want contact at all. If you show aggressiveness and go for dunk guys are going to get out your way or foul you.
