I remember how everyone loved Schroder on this board before the draft.. and then we ended up with Burke. At least we got Rudy

Well... now that you've brought it up... I used to stick my neck out here and say Schroder was actually good enough to be a top-5 pick, when he was being discussed as a possible pick to Utah at 14...

People here hassled me for days for saying I had Trey Burke graded out at 89/100(not a lotto grade..) and Schroder
at 95 or 96/100... lol..

Also Schroder actually wanted to be drafted by Utah 14th too...... He made an instagram post about it right after the Jazz worked him out... Utah been throwing PG **** at the wall hoping something sticks ever since.

The IG post disappeared a long time ago.. There was some hashtag he had at the end of his post talking about going to the Jazz or going 14th tho, it wasn't subtle. Pretty sure there was a thread on it here, or it was covered extensively in the 2013 draftees thread. Plus the timeframe should be easy to pinpoint if you're looking for it here.. it was a few weeks before the draft, so late May or early June 2013.

Out of boredom. Certainly not for recognition. I'm genuinely happy for this kid and glad I get to watch him play and entertain discussions such as these.. He doesn't take **** from anyone on the court either, it's respectable.

I just knew Dennis had the juice. I probably cant even find the words to describe why I was so sure, I knew it though.. It's something you see more in boxing, some dudes just got that look of defiance in their eye, and they not gonna be denied(see the Avy!!), I consider myself to be that way and certainly thought the same of Dennis.

My father and his died the same summer, soon it'll be 8 years. Always rooted for him on a personal level cuz of that, his fathers passing was a MAJOR catalyst for him to 'man-up' and get his **** together and hone his talents, same sorta thing happened for me... I just knew he was gonna go off tonight..

Used to say his "character concerns" are actually strengths..

If I was in his shoes i'd have been SUPER-DUPER-AMPED beyond words to try and steal the show on "Father-Son night", thats for damn sure..

The good news is we can roll this focus into winning three more on the road before returning home to face Boston.
