"Scouts are worried about his age. Not an off the charts athlete."

Huh? He's too old already at 23?

I think his athleticism is going to surprise some people that aren't used to seeing athletic white skinny kids like AK.

I think it has more to do with reduced upside than too old.

MikeWaters · 05-14-2008, 08:52 PM

but he sure is tough.

Wow, I didn't know you had heard of search engines.

Seriously, if he is gone, more power to him.

We will always love Cummard, and we will always despise Plaisted!

This is typical. In "Wilt" Chamberlain describes the typical uninformed fan's bigotry against taller playes. See also, Stockton and Malone.

The reason Plaisted is not particularly liked
1. did not play with a lot of heart
2. did not play smart
3. did not reach his potential
4. was never a leader
