How many times you can do a lift doesn't equal basketball strength.
Sullinger plays a lot stronger than Bass. Both on the offensive and defensive end.
No it equals actual strength.
Sullinger weighs more.
Since when does strength = upper arm strength when measured by bench press, when we're talking about basketball?
Sullinger plays stronger than Bass, weight matters when you're talking about strength. So does your core and your legs.
Unless you think Boozer is going to compare gym reps with Sully/Bass when he posts up or tries to get rebounding position.
I was just giving it as one example...... because that's the only one we have. If he's that significantly better in one area of the gym chances are he's a hard worker. You've also got to take into consideration he's been alive 8 years longer.
Sullinger USES his strength more, I think there's a clear distinction. Notice how much more often he gets called for fouls. He backs down more and fights for position more. On the other hand you don't see him dunking in traffic or getting to the line like Bass.
Obviously I'm not discounting Sullinger's weight or his ability to hold his ground. His weight gives him huge advantages over Bass in terms of using his strength. Dwight Howard can't move Big Baby but that doesn't mean he's not much stronger.
