I am not saying they are similar players. I'm saying they have similar ceilings. Joel was a solid starting center for this team, and it's possible that Freeland could be at least that, and possibly more depending on how well he scores at this level. Joel was never really a threat on the offensive end, so obviously Freeland could be better based on that alone. I'm just saying my expectations are for a solid starter... not a star, just a solid starter.
