Thoughts on Chris Humpheries of the Nets?

He's been putting up some pretty consistent #(s) since Deron Williams joined the Nets... is he under-rated? Does he have the potential to be an all-star-- to become another "David Lee" type of player?

Update:

Totally forgot about the "Kardashian Factor".

    Kris Humphries is alright.

    I think the biggest factor to his rebounding is that Brook Lopez is such a horrible rebounder for his size. Kris has flashed this type of game in all his stops, he got drafted as a freshman out of Minnesota and I think that he's found a good spot with no one in front of him that will take away his minutes like All-Stars Boozer, Bosh and Dirk Nowitzki did.

    I think he's just maturing into a solid player and making the most of his opportunity in New Jersey.

    He's a good player on a bad team... it's kind of hard to gauge whether or not he could put up the same numbers on a playoff bound team where he's the starting PF.

    He's an underrated Power Forward and ever since Favors was traded from the Nets, he's been getting about 15 rebounds per game. He has a physique similar to Blake Griffin so he has no problem getting physical. His shot blocking improved and he can hit decent shots if left wide open.

    He's not a good free throw shooter or shooter in general if pressured. He's like a David Lee.

    Yeah, Humphries is very underrated. He can grab rebounds and score consistently. I like your comparison to Lee. He does have the potential to become like him. But I don't think he'll become an All-Star. He'll be a pretty decent player in the league though.

    Kardashian women do something to guys. Lamar is playing the best basketball of his career and Reggie Bush was a SuperBowl champion.

    He is a very good rebounder, strong and athletic. Plus, being with a Kardshian seems to be a good luck charm.
