Greg Stiemsma

Stiemsma is a shot blocking machine. He should have a nickname. How about the "white eraser?" Thoughs?

He's surprised me a lot.

He's surprised me a lot. Coming out of Wisconsin I didn't see him having much of a future in the NBA. But he has definitely settled into a nice role and it's cool to see him really take advantage of it. Has good size/strength and a knack for blocking shots when he's on-ball. A real hustle guy that doesn't make it look pretty but gets the results...

They already call him the " steamer", I have respect for guys like him and gerald green. Guys who dissappear , go overseas and improve their games, then come back and be productive in the NBA

He is absolutely nothing like Foster. Don't think Foster blocked a shot in like 10 years in the league. People have a weird obsession with comparing big white dudes to other big white dudes simply coz they are big white dudes.
