Interesting comparison between Devante Gardner and DeJuan Blair.

Gardner is listed at 6-foot-8 and 290 pounds. Blair is listed at 6-7 and 270 pounds.

Not saying Gardner is anywhere near as good as Blair, but perhaps he could be. His performance against St. John's was certainly encouraging.

Both are poof that height can be over-rated as far as effective inside players go. Bulk can be equally important.
