I like Ibaka myself for some reason I hope he does turn into a force in the league.

As a fellow Sonics fan I feel exactly the same…

@ yallallreadyknow

You’re a moron…how is is not a compliment? If anything it’s an insult to AI2. Dude avg’d 20 pts, 5.4 boards, 5 dimes and 2 steals last year, played 39.5 minutes a game in all 82 games. If I’m not mistaken was MVP of the Rook/Soph Challenge the year before last right? He had two triple-doubles in one season at ZONA – the only other PAC10 player with two in one season is Jason Kidd, a first ballot HOFamer. The only reason it’s a bad analogy is because Ibaka is 4 inches taller than he is. The guy hasn’t even played a game yet. Not to mention the dunk he did was easier than Iggy’s because he didnt go across the backboard. If Ibaka’s first three seasons are half as good as Iggy’s I think OKC will be happy…because they are gonna suck this year.

Whens the last time you saw an international player hold his own based of athletic ability alone in the nba? If you said never you would be correct…he has hops, but so does half of UNLV’s squad and I don’t see any of them doin ish…I expected a more dominant dunk performance or some in-game highlights or something!…weak..

@Jah
If you are 6’0, 190 and can dunk from the free-throw line you are setting some kind of world record. That is to say I think you are telling us a lie.

@Austin
I thought Ibaka was the steal of the draft and was pumped to see him in the NBA until OKC got him. I don’t blame the kid for staying at home.

For those who don’t know who he is – Ibaka is 6-10 or 6-11 and has a 40 inch vert and can shoot from mid-range, 3pt and score from inside (obviously)

It would be an inspired move for Serge Ibaka to grow a big, greasy Rollie Fingers mustache.

Hear me out on this one. Right now he’s just a skinny kid with skill. He needs a gimmick. I’ve always maintained that Ammo got drafted third overall by the Bobcats because there just aren’t enough basketball players who look like heroin-addicted gay porn stars. His prepubescant “pedo-stache” gimmick (and crying during the NCAA tournament) got him a lot more draft buzz than any aspect of his actual game did.

You can’t tell me a guy named Serge shouldn’t have a Rollie Fingers mustache. I’m pretty sure it’s mandated by law in some countries. In addition to this, a badass stache like that would surely trump Morrison’s, and it would be an even better home game fan gimmick than Verajao’s hairdo. Hand out fake mustaches at the door! You can’t tell me this idea doesn’t scream money. Sure, the kid can ball, but can he grow a mustache so thick that he can comb it? That’s what I’d really want to know if I were an NBA GM.

@Jah — I don’t care about Pops Mensah-Bonsu. But Ibaka dunked from the free throw line (pretty easily) and did Iguodala’s dunk. I was impressed.

@ Austin:

I’m 27 years old. 6’0″ at 190 lbs. I can do every dunk that the fellow in the green did.
