Following potential 2017 draftees...

Trade all the picks for Robert "The Rocketeer" Williams. Thats the move. He's on CBS right now in a close game vs South Carolina and started at PF!

Willians makes these absurdly athletic plays look routine, often times in close succession.. it's he's sure to be a crowd favorite on any NBA team he lands on..

I'm certain the only reason why he doesn't have way more hype is for no other reason than just because people haven't seen him yet..

I can tell you with great certainty that if you watch him long enough you'll conclude "why is this other team even testing this guy?" Thats the type of shotblocker he is..
 
So I was saying Hogg's performance was anomalous the other day vs UK... He's raining down 3's like it's practice in this one 7/9, all going in the same way too, hitting the backrim and going straight down.

The Justin Patton show is continuing at Providence right now too. He might put up 20 again. Blocks assists, he does it all.


Creighton's PG is irrelevant to this thread. He's ahead of Lonzo ball in assists per game though. Pretty sure Lonzo's dad predicted he'd lead the nation.
 
Do you guys think TJ Leaf can play playmaking 4? I don't see him being able to defend 3s in the league, but if he can be respectable against 4s, he might be a nice player. They are using him as a playmaker from the high post a LOT and his passing is great for a forward.

Not watching but rather unsuprised by this tweet. Like I've been saying Marques Bolden has gotta be one of player in 1st rd mocks getting the most undue benefit of the doubt..


I'd say having him in the 1st indicates the mock is ****..

Rough stretch for Duke freshman Marques Bolden: allows alley oop dunk; fails to roll to the basket a causing turnover; picked up 4th foul in just 6 minutes. If he can't stay on the floor and gain experience in a game the Blue Devils lead by 22, he's going to find it hard to get playing time in games that matter.

Not as well as Lyles. He's got comprable ball-skills/passing/offensive game tho.
 
Sucks UNC - NC State was postponed. The way DS4's (and Berry) been playing of late he'd have probably dropped 30 and put on a real show

Reminds me of Love after his frosh season in this respect - there were reasons not to like him as a prospect, kinda wondered where he'd fit, etc, but ultimately, when you would watch him, he was usually the most productive player on the floor, outplayed the other bigs and he was just really good at playing basketball. I don't know where Leaf will fit, what his role will be, but he'll figure it out because he's awesome at playing basketbsll

I think he's clearly a 3, he's like Kyle Singler with sharper tools.

I really like him. I don't have many worries about him offensively. There are several things he does at elite level for his position. What worries me is - will he be able to stay on the court(will he be able to defend a position at a reasonable level, to where it won't be a detriment to the number of minutes he can get).
 
What a showing from Edmond Sumner vs St. Johns.. That's a stock boosting type of game. Marcus LoVett the opposing PG has 32 and counting, Sumners got a cool 20 5-7-3stls on just 12 shots tho, and just threw down a viscous dunk in the middle of the lane.

Xavier's been up 15 the whole game.
 
Michael Weathers has gotta stop reaching in.. This is certified madness.. Everytime I watch him it's the same thing -- He's so quick that he leaves his man and can recover so he flys in for help/traps and just hacks away..

3.1 fouls per game in 27 minutes.. If it was a 6 foul rule he'd probably be at 4.0..

It's like Andrew Golata hitting Riddick Bowe with low-blows... Does this guy really not know any better?
 
I wonder how the T.J. Leaf fans here feel about D.J. Wilson.
