Always liked Roberson.  He is really playing well. He is so explosive that he can guard close to 4 positions.  Offensively nothing amazing but very efficient.  Has picked his spots well

Roberson is giving GSW hell on the defensive end. Just everywhere. 

Reminds me a bit of a 6'7 version of AB (body type, hard nosed defense, versatile,  not someone you can rely consistently on the offensive end).  He looks like a million bucks compared to "no show" Barnes.

Maybe even a Jae Crowder type of player with a less developed offensive game. Minus the intensity and leadership of course.

AB has a much much better jumper. Even early in his career AB had good form on his jumper making you think it could turn into a weapon.

Better comp for Roberson is Thabo Sefolosha, if he can get more consistency as a spot up option.
