ADD Nevermind.
If Bismack Biyombo is the next Dikembe Mutumbo, then according to this, Kanter is the next Vlade Divacabonis. Soo much more polished.
ADD I'm sold. Let's take him.
6'-10" 245 at 17. Guys gotta be at least 265 looking at him now. And even 6'-11" now. Thats taller and bigger than Ibaka and closer to Kendrick Perkins.
ADD Though at 7'-0" and 250lbs, Andrea Bargnani is Bigger than Ibaka, so I guess thats not really appropriate. hahaLast edited by Joey; Mon May 2, 2011, 06:06 PM.

Vesely Looking Good
the 21-year-old Vesely is expected to play both forward positions. For his European team, Partizan Belgrade, Vesely has played both positions and defended threes, including NBA small forward prospect Bojan Bogdanovic this year. At 6-foot-11, 240 pounds, Vesely still possesses an athletic ability that is rarely seen among European prospects.
"His athleticism is off the charts," an Atlantic Division personnel man said. "He runs the floor. Does a lot of things that are factors in the game. Has personality on the court. When he dunks the ball, you know he dunks the ball."
Said a Northwest Division executive: "He plays hard and he cuts off the ball. He's going to survive because of that. He plays like (Andrei) Kirilenko when he was super athletic."
Vesely's European team hasn't been quite as good this season as last, when he first became known as a top NBA propsect. But that doesn't deter his supporters in the least. "Right now I would say forget the mock drafts," the Atlantic Division man said. "I still say, talent-wise, he's a top five pick."Said an Atlantic Division exec: "Right now, it's not even close. Vesely is a player and Motiejunas is an unknown.

True, I think they're just worried how much more he'll actually develop. If he's got those raw skills and he's 19 then awesome. Buy if he's 23 or even 26 as rumored, then it's kind of concerning how much better he'll actually get.@sweatpantsjer
