Kareem with the Skyhook
Akeem with the Dream Shake
Dirk with the one leg step back
Duncan with the bank shot
Shaq with just his hugeness
I'm not saying that DLive will ever be a HOFer, but I wouldn't mind him exhibiting something more than just a lob threat.
It would be cool, but I don’t need this, personally. I just want him to A) anchor a dominant defense and B) bring enough to the table offensively to avoid forcing his team to play 4 on 5 on that end. And honestly, with the dribble hand off skills he has been showing (will work great in a “flow” offense) and his ability to make awesome passes out of the short roll, he’s kind of already there.
Honestly, my main hope for Lively is that he can play 25-32 minutes per game for 65+ this year, and that’s just because I’m sick to death of reading around here that he’s injury prone.
