    I model my game after Beverley. If I didn't play with a "mountain" on my shoulder, I wouldn't be playing college ball anymore. My general athleticism has faded with injury, but I am still relentless on-ball defender and very knowledgeable on rotations. I keep traveling further down the bench anyways; oh well. I have a better shot than Beverley, comparing college % to NBA %.

    KPap without the 3. When I was younger I had a decent three but I don't play often enough nor do I ever shoot it these days.

    Battier in his prime.

    Good at blocking shots. Played unselfishly to a fault.

    Deceptively athletic and can knock down open threes at a good clip.

    I would watch tendencies on guards to stay in front of them, even though I couldn't move my feet as quick as the blacks.

    I am Omer Asik on offense combined with James Harden on defense.

    Easily Eddie House. I don't miss from long range often.

    Shawn Bradley - I am 6'5" but awkwardly mediocre. I was always pretty good at defense and rebounding but bad when I had to dribble. I usually scored on putbacks and short jump shots. I am not very graceful but I am a fast runner. If I was shorter I would be terrible but my size was always my best feature... I also always way too hard and got a little too intense in pick up games. I love to play though, I haven't played in about 2-3 years.

    Well I'm rated 99 on NBA 2k, so I think I'm a combination of Durant, LBJ, and Jordan. But I'm just being modest. ;)

    Before my torn ACL I was a combo of Magic and Dream. Elite ball handling, passing, defense, low post

    Now I have to settle for Paulwtfk and Paulnsfw with the quick release
