    How bad can you look when you're being guarded by Christofferson?

    Seriously though. From what little I saw of the workout, Christofferson wasn't physical at all. I'm sure that's what he was told to do, though. He has mid range jumper but I really doubt whether he'll be able to take the pounding he's gonna receive and still be effective.

    Some foreign big men have a tendancy to want to drift out and shoot jumpers as opposed to mixing it up inside. If you spend a number one pick on a 7'6 big man; he better be able to hold his own on the block and be a presence.

    He has the frame that could carry 25-30+ pounds easily though. His first year, he'll grab some boards, he'll block some shots, but the hype surrounding this kid has everyone expecting a polished big man ready to step in and challenge some of the best in the league. From what I've seen, he's a few years away.
