Previously, according to NBA Central, Montrez-Harrell spoke about Dennis Rodman. Harrell said"Seriously, I tell people that I'm the modern-day Rodman, and that's it. "
Is there an element of overestimation in Harrell's comparison of himself to Rodman? This is a very discussable place, after all, Rodman has won the rebounding king for 7 consecutive years, and has been selected as the NBA Defensive Team Player for 7 times, Harrell has not had any hard honors so far, and saying such a thing will inevitably be considered by others as overestimating himself, but to be honest, the two also have similarities, and Harrell is not really overrated.
First of all, Harrell said that he is a modern Rodman, 90 years of Rodman is different from now, after all, basketball is constantly changing, from the previous traditional basketball to the current modern basketball, modern basketball is more advocating offense, Harrell does have a bright spot in offense.
Static data comparison: Harrell and Rodman are both as tall, both 2.01 meters, but Harrell is a bit thicker, with an official weight of kilograms, while Rodman is only 100 kilograms. Rodman was an integral player in the Pistons and Bulls dynasties in the late '80s and '90s, known for his defense and rebounding, and Harrell is now off the bench with the Clippers, a bench bandit, and an indispensable player for the team to win the championship.
His style of play is also known for being tough, and although he is not as accomplished as Rodman in grabbing rebounds, he can in turn make up for his lack on the defensive end with the offensive end.
Harrell has the ability to attack, has the ball in his hand, can play one-on-one singles with a frame, has fast steps, and often plays a good show of one step; The disadvantage is that he is short in height, and in the face of interior lines who are taller than him and have defensive ability, Harrell often can't take advantage, such as Embiid, Gasol, Jokic, ......But considering his height, he can still do so much work, in fact, not only is he overrated, but underestimated by many teams.
This season, Harrell averaged minutes per game, was able to get points, rebounds, assists, and shooting percentage, which is already commendable, not to mention that his annual salary this season is only $6 million. And the rebounding that can't be compared with Rodman, Harrell ranks second on the team with rebounds per game, second only to Leonard, in a sense, Harrell's rebounding is also very important to the Clippers, no less than the big bug Rodman, therefore, I don't think Harrell overestimated himself.

Harrell, a young player from the Clippers, is still quite confident in himself, which is also related to the fact that his performance this season has improved a lot compared to last season, and he is not an overrated player. At present, he is already the main interior player of the Clippers, although his height is relatively not very advantageous, but his offensive talent is very good, good at offensive scoring, can break through or shoot, also has a certain back frame offensive ability, and has a good single defense strength on the defensive end. At present, he is still relatively young, and he can continue to improve himself.

No, he's a very good person, he's also a very clear self-aware person, and he's also very confident, and I think he has a bright future.

Harrell does overestimate himself, he is not that strong, and his attack is average.
