I had a longer post about showing athleticism in game is more important the combine measurements, but decided to stick with, hmmm....

I think I need to go back to the film and watch for it a little more. I do remember a couple of impressive plays from Tre dunking.

If I had to rank the indicators, I'd go:

1) Statistical indicators (doing the things that size/athleticism are supposed to do)
2) Film and how they "look"



3) Testing numbers

Tre tanked his standing reach though. Its still nice but its got some "Connaughton" inflation.
 
Cedric Coward is going to go top ten. We should make a promise at 21 and see if we can shut him down.

FWIW, I do think it's worth revisiting film/statistical indicators when the testing numbers come back different than expected. I think sometimes players get labeled as athletic/unathletic and we review the film/data with that bias. If the testing numbers tell a different story it's probably worth reviewing everything with a fresh set of eyes.

Was reading up on Fears. One scout comped him to Monte Ellis. Is that a fair comp?

There's no real good comparisons. His tools are abysmal other than his body control, but his body control is historically elite. He can change direction in ways that are so strange that defenders basically can never predict it. Kind of like SGA if SGA was... Really really tiny.
