that would be nice, but i dont think he is near the athlete Brandon Bass is. in college he was a three and four and has put on weight for the nba. vice versa for tolliver. tolliver played 4 and 5 in college. doesnt have the explosive first step like bass. not near the ahtlete bass his and doesnt have hops like bass either. much better stroke though. bass couldnt shoot at all in college.
he is saying he is going to play two positions. 4 is where he needs to be. not a good enough rebounder to play the center spot and not big enough. lacks the agility to play out on the perimiter without just giving a small forward way too much space to operate. without hand checking on the peremiter like the days of old, he will get picked on and abused quite often if he is expected to check a SF night in and out
