The Official Thomas Robinson Thread (height chart post #43)

[Plowright]

I know what you mean, I feel we should get something more than just a energy guy for a top 4 pick. But saying that i have only seen him play once so I can't really judge too much

If you go to the 1:29 to 1:30 mark of this video, Robinson is running right next to #10 from Missouri. #10 appears taller with higher shoulders. #10 is listed at 6'8". Not promising.....

ESPN has Robinson listed at 6'10" 237. If he were really 6'10", he'd be more like 250 with THAT build, in my humble opinion.

On the bright side, I went back and checked his 3 point shooting. At least he shot 50% on 14 attempts all year.

Rebounding energy 'tweener who can knock down a shot or two?

I like his build more than I like Davis's. But his height will work against him. Unless we turn him into a small forward I think it would be unwise to draft him. A Bismark/Thomas front court would be really small.

I'm even slower than normal tonight. I don't follow....

Oh nevermind I got it. A certain spelling......

Yeah, I guess I did call our center a nazi battleship. Oh well.

What do you guys think of a Robinson/Biyombo PF/C combo? How would those two fit together, if at all, on both ends of the court?

I'd be concerned that we'd lack size against some of the giant Hibbertesque big men in the league. I do like Robinson's motor though.

robinson will be a better version of kenneth faried. he will be solid. but he and biz could not start together for the long term. they are too short. if/when they are on the floor together with mags at sf and kemba and hendo at the guards the line up would be 6'0, 6"5, 6'7", 6'8", 6'9".

I only want Robinson with the fourth pick which if we end up there I'm gonna be so damn pissed. The three best guys are Davis, MKG and Beal. Hell I'd consider a few guys over Robinson at 4. He has an incredibly high motor and is such a hard worker but from every highlight tape I ever saw of him he really can't shoot at all and is undersized.
