he ain’t, he’s only doing everything in his role, playing elite big man defense, post fading and taking good shots, when you are a big men you don’t always need to be like Shaq, mostly if you’re in a team with offensive weapons like crowder, d Book, cp3, etc.

If DA played like a bully he would dominate. Still a little soft and finesse.

His game is more skill based then power based if you’ve watched him. He’s getting more dominant but he loves those face up jumpers and hook shots. And that ain’t a bad thing, not every 7 footer has to be Shaq like.

The teams picked for positions not players. Hawks needed a pg they got Trae, Suns needed a center they got ayton. All 3 teams chose who they should of. Suns didn’t need a ball dominant 6’7 PG / SF with booker. And obviously it worked, mavericks are barely the 7th seed and didn’t make it past the 1st round last year.

DA is one of the best two way players does alot of the dirty work. Defense, Rebounding and screen setting. His offense is awesome. Great player, teammate and person.
