I am wondering why people are not talking about the play of Hilton Armstrong more.

has really anchored a resurgent UCONN defense with a ton of blocked / altered shots - I am interested to see how he rounds in to shape come NCAA madness.

To bad he is not a bit stronger and able to rebound - but his game does seem to hold some intrigue in the defense-deficient NBA.

any comments to add?

thanks man - I missed that one.

Get this man more touches on the offensive end. Don't be suprised to see him sneak into the high teens to late lotto. He shows you something new everytime you watch him. He's a scout's dream...

Son't believe the hype he is a Steven Hunter clone.

He seems just like Steven Hunter, although I think he'll play better D, simply because Calhoun is a much better coach than Pat Kennedy.

Armstrong has improved by leaps and bounds since going to UConn.

I think his jumpshot, hands, and high-low passing are far better than Hunter's. He's a good few inches shorter though, and that'll hurt him.

He looked good in the game against West Virginia last Saturday. I can see him being drafted but I don't know where. Do people really think he'll go in the mid first round? I always pictured him second round or late first round.
