Roy Hibbert took numerous years @ George town to become considered an outside prospect - they said he was too slow / awkward etc... all the same stuff... but the dude flat out did what ever was asked of him and is one of the hardest working guys out there.
Now he is solid if not spectacular - maybe Alabi will make the same sacrifices."I may be wrong ... but I doubt it"
