The Idea - Like Father Like Son
Patrick Ewing and Bill Walton are both very known former NBA players. Both played at the center position and both were inducted into the NBA Hall of Fame. Both Ewing and Walton towered over the NBA in their time with Ewing being seven foot and Walton being six feet eleven inches. They both raised two boys into men. Both of their sons didn't get the fortune of being as tall as their dads. Ewing and Walton's kids are both six feet eight inches and both play at the small forward position.
Luke Walton has been in the league longer than Patrick Ewing Jr. Luke Walton has two championship rings, but has failed to be a big name in the league. Luke was the very last pick in the 2003 NBA Draft and is currently burried on the Lakers bench. Luke is thirty years old and currently holds a 66 point overall rating. Patrick Ewing Jr. was drafted by the Sacramento Kings with the 43rd overall pick in the 2008 NBA Draft. Patrick Ewing Jr has been shuffled around and ended up with the Knicks like his father. Ewing Jr. has been a staple in the NBADL though and is still trying to find his way into the NBA scene. Ewing Jr. is twenty-six years old and urrently holds a 56 point overall rating.
Now this is where things get a little more interesting. The NBA season is about to begin, but it's time to boost one last group of players. These players are Luke Walton and Patrick Ewing Jr. I hope that these two can someday live up to the hype that their fathers had back in their careers. Both players are going to be given a boost all the way up to a 75 point overall rating. They can thank their father's success for these ratings. From here on, it will be potential that will boost these men any more. This will be the last installment of players getting boosts. It's time to get buckled up for the 2010-2011 NBA Season
1) Los Angeles Lakers - They are the defending champions, some one has to knock them off the top
2) Boston Celtics - The addition of the O'neals is going to have a bigger impact than people think
