On Lampe:
Great leaper, great instinct for the offensive rebounds, moves well without the ball, has n yet a good outside shoot, but has enough soft hands to develop it; could become NBA material in a year or two;
Improves every day; he can play three positions, but hes probably best at the PF; his combination of size, shooting touch, ball handling skills and an advanced inside-outside games have drawn comparisons to Dirk Nowitzki; in fact, hes a great leaper, has great instinct for the offensive rebounds, moves well without the ball, has enough soft hands to develop a good outside shoot.
