What's new

Following Potential 2022 Draftees

its so boring to me this season.. last season.. If I had to use one word to describe it ---- Stasis (or Backlogged).... I guess people dont watch over basically the entire nation like me.. If you did tho, you'd be bored too...

Its the same fking players, back again, their sophomores/juniors/seniors, like they were last year...


yall break my chops about looking ahead ---- are these teams not like the same every year now? is the lack of roster overturn not simply astonishing to you?
 
and what would things look like without the x-fer situation?far, far, far worse! you'd have kids stuck in limbo in terrible spots, recruited over, 24 years old.. Basically we were just 1 step removed from preposterously heinous scenarios...
 
n the worst part is people use so many words to describe the situation they forget the most important/relevant ---- COMPETITIVE... This **** is not competitive, it's anti-competition.
 
The idea that the players are the winners, is preposterous. Thats marketing! The reality is the handful of winners and their stories are used to distract you from the 1000's of losers getting a raw deal, much like how a Casino works.. A coach can go 0-31 and make millions of dollars.. TV analysts can blather on about completely irrelevant things, do a terrible job, they get paid the same.. The refs get to perform at an unsatisfactory level and get paid the same.

the 5-25 college coach making millions is a loser right? well what does it make the kids that he recruited and made false promises to? They dont even get mentioned by name! your just an afterthought!...
 
this is clearly the most crucial structural flaw within the system.. Thank Goodness for the G-League... The G-League is such a resounding success beyond what ppl realize at this time, its forced the NCAA to fall in line!

The g-league can only rescue a few players from getting potentially hostaged by the system, but thats a whole lot of progress compared to just a few years ago..
 
Ill always remember Isaiah Todd's(Rookie on the Wizards) mother used to tell him when he was in his early teens that he would go straight to the NBA and wouldnt need to go to college, and that the one-and-done rule would be gone by then..

and ofc it came true
 
No one i know, who used to defend the one-and-done rule will even hold a conversation about it anymore... thats marketing too..
 
the real elephant in the room when it comes to sports, and 'water cooler talk' is that ppl are just repeating what they heard in the media...
 
I would offer the fact that so many people(with no dogs in the fight) defended the one-and-done rule up as a perfect example of how the media mind controls people and gets them to repeat silly nonsensical things, because they know how to present them with a degree of 'normalcy'.
 
That rule never made any sense, it was anti-american, anti-capitalism, and worst of the 3 uncompetitive. the explaination of how it was gonna affect players/teams was pure fantasy, did Peter Pan come up with that rule?

Yet many casual fans thought it was a good idea because they heard some talking head on ESPN making outragous, sensationalized claims about the rule and its effect and they listened and thought "yeah that makes sense, lets act like an arbitrary # is more important than all of the complexities involved with going to the next step of competition (from amatuer to pro)..."

Emoni Bates looking much more like the next Khris Middleton than the next KD to me... I saw KD play in college a lot, Bates is good but he's not really on that level, he's not really even all that close..
Duren is a lot better than Bates. I imagine Bates will be fine, but he has some work to do in order to reach Middleton.
 
wow Oregon is SO BAD... Which is completely preposterous given their resources/advantages.. If you want to see a team with high ranked recruits thats THOROUGHLY UNDERPERFORMING look no further


the fact that Frank Kepnang has taken over the starting spot over Dante... IDK what to even make of that...
 
Johnny Davis does it again! to hand the extremely experienced Saint Mary Gaels their first L of the season. He deserves like a player of the week award or somehting.
 
ADEMA SANOGO DROPS 30 ?!?!?!?! stop the presses! thats why I keep mentioning his name here. And thats vs a primetime C matchup in Walker Kessler. Huge stock rising game lets goooooo
 
letsss gooo Freshman Tyrese Hunter is whooping on 5th year senior Paul Scruggs so far in this game! Hunter (ISU) is/was so crazy underrated.
 
ay Jim Beoheim cost his team the game by playing his sons n giving them too many shots today.. I know ppl wont like to call that spade a spade, but when u have Benny Williams on the bench that changes things...


at the same time that was also a putrid game from Cole Swider, worst i've ever seen him play by far. Completely got shutdown..
 
Kadary Richmond 6'6 Sophomore from Brooklyn at Seton Hall is no joke.. His stock is only going up... Trending towards the 1st rd fast. Tough two-way player.


Its no secret that playoff teams look for wings who are really tough, and this player fits that mold bigtime, not just a lunchpail guy either he flashes some nice skills passes and makes his 3's...
