Huh? Guys are taller with better moves in the NBA.
He needs to stay at least another year and work on some offense.

Mickey and Martin need to return to improve their games. Mickey is very good at the rim, but he will not be a shot blocker in the NBA. He isn't big enough. How many forwards in the NBA are elite shot blockers? Davis is very good, but he is a lot taller and has a much longer wingspan than Mickey.

Mickey plays awful on the ball defense. He lets his defenders by because he can't slide his feet. Luckily for him he's awesome at recovering by blocking shots.

yeah, but not that much of a force like you are thinkin. Everyone can jump in the NBA. AD,Nerlens Noel have had to get use to this before starting to gain ground. I saw the second half of this game. First time I saw them play this season and I saw Texas AM just completely out play them. LSU was passive on both offense and defense. They let AM take it to the hole and give them wide open looks on jump shots while AM was all over them on defense. Any team will get back in the game if you let that happen.

That's the kind of misguided talk that makes these kids think that they are ready. He'd get eaten alive in the NBA...if he could even make a roster. He needs to develop way more offense and a complete defensive game.

Who ever takes him can leave him on the defensive side of the court until he refines his offensive skills. Best at blocking shots since Shaq. But what a shame on his offensive woes.

No offensive game to speak of but rim defenders are at a premium. Can get quality minutes right away.
You've never watched the NBA huh. He has zero chance to even make a team right now. No perimeter game at all, and too short and small to be down low.
he's a worse Aminu type NBA player right now, if that's possible.

No he won't. He is a below average NBA player at this point. He needs much more polish to be an immediate defensive force in the NBA.
College ball and NBA ball are two very very very different things.
