enough Iron John, back to pick and roll

[ryanmnelson at verizon.net]

I agree with this.  Hansbrough has always struck me as a good college player who will be very flawed in a quicker pro game.  He's just not tall enough to make up for his short arms and lack of lift.

Big Baby has the advantage of some girth to move people around and he seemed quicker in college.
