One
of the most spectacular players in the NBA... Simply unbelievable
leaping skills... The best dunker ever, but obviously
not only a dunker... Very creative scorer... His jumper
has constantly improved over the years... A lot of finesse...
Doesn't need to play his best to score 20-plus points
per contest... Should attack the basket more... Doesn't
put much effort on defense... His best years are behind
him. |
