[QUOTE="gte447f, post: 519517, member: 4289"] I like Banks as a player also. He is a good rim protector, as evidenced by his 2.4 blocks per game (top 30 nationally), and I think he is a good on ball defender when he doesn't get pulled too far from the basket. He has nice offensive game when he commits to it, and he passes well in traffic (but sometimes over passes leading to turnovers). He has weaknesses though. He sometimes seems to get lost on defense and let guys either get by him or get behind him for easy baskets. I get nervous anytime he dribbles the ball, because he is not a good ball handler. And, to me, his biggest weakness is for some reason he seems to have trouble holding on to the ball. He loses the ball in traffic several times per game. Because he is not absolutely dominant, I don't think he should be playing 35-40 minutes per game. I think AD should be getting about 10 minutes per game in for Banks. AD developed some really nice post moves as the season went on last year and is also a shot blocker. I am not sure if he has regressed or what? [/QUOTE]
