Who is Mason Plumlee?
Mason is better than Miles. Still, ultra raw offensively. He may have benefitted from his brother going in the 1st round, but that still doesnt mean he wont slip into the 2nd, although he is better.
Duke isnt hiding anything, Miles had the chance to produce and he never did til Senior Night. They could be better players, and Duke is not great at developing their low post games, but all the blame cant be placed on Duke. Those guys have to know they need to improve on certain things.
Mason Plumlee is an athletic freak which no one seemed to know until the combine. His athleticism and his size helped him move into the first round of the draft when he previously thought to go into the deep second round or even undrafted. He had 18 points, 8 rebounds, and 3 blocks in today's summer league game against Boston. Which actually carries some weight since he went up against Jared Sullinger, Fab Melo, Sean Williams and Jajuan Johnson.

Don't tell me he has all these moves. We watched him for four years. You know he started for Duke, right? You know the college team that gets a national broadcast almost once a week! He did not score points during those games. He did not show offensive moves. He would occasionally do a hook shot that barely looked like it had a chance of hitting the rim.
He can rebound. If he can rebound and defend the low post that is enough to stick in the league. But if he can do more the question will be why couldn't he do it in college.
If Miles Plumlee is showing glimpses, Is Duke hiding Mason Plumlee´s true skills? I mean, Mason has always been considered more polished than Miles, and its true that the Duke system hid Miles real skillset, by the way, he looks a different player right now, i know it is only summerleague, but he is playing at other level.
Who is Miles then? is he more skilled than his brother?, everyone bets he is, and if he is more polished, maybe the Duke system is hiding a not so rough Diamond, lottery talent maybe?
