Chad Ford on Thabeet:

Tom (Mpls): What are the chances Thabeet actually becomes a legitimate NBA player?

Chad Ford: Personally ... I think it's around 50 percent. His length and shot blocking ability give him a good chance of sticking as a defensive center. But his offense? Ugh. But to be clear, scouts tend to be higher on him than I am.

Hmmmm

Moments after he says others are much higher than he is (50%) on Thabeet, he answers a question where he states that the two skills that most obviously translate to the NBA are rebounding and shot blocking.

Come again?

So imitate the action of the tiger!
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,
Disguise fair nature with hard-favoured rage.
- lend the eye a terrible aspect,

Now set the teeth....and teach them how to war.
