What's new

Following potential 2017 draftees...

Robert Williams is a highlight factory; he flashes in an effortless fashion at such a high frequency it's remarkable.

To me he's more athletic than Michael Beasley or as I've said before Marquese Chriss (who i'm still staunch should've gone top-5 and is having some nice games lately) Those players have more utility, the key is though that Williams is vastly more punishing and imposing defensively and on the boards (in sort of a Prime-Favors or Kenyon Martin type of way).

Even though they've adjusted their mocks and put him in the lottery i'm gonna still say he's underrated.
 
Moritz Wagner is easily good enough to be a priority 2nd rd pick this year IMO. He's the type of player who could really blow up if Michigan gets into the tournament with a good draw. Actually could see him working himself into the first rd in 2018...

Happ's going at him and has 4 assists already. Wagner is ultimately the better prospect though IMO he's shootign 58% from the floor and 42% from 3 on 2.4attempts per..
did you see Wagner put Happ on his *** tonight? not everyday you see a big man do that. just didn't bury the three, though he hit one in Happ's face the next time down.

If Williams was a a little bigger it would help his stock, as he could be legitimately labeled a center. He is in the PF/C "tweener" zone like Favors, Capella, KAT. They are playable at center, but cannot anchor a top NBA defense like Gobert, Gasol, and Jordan can. Playing him at PF means your committing to a non stretch PF, a hard sell in todays NBA.

He isn't a tweener lmao, he is a PF. He is 6'9 with a giant wingspan. Why are you calling him a tweener when he has ideal PF size?

I didn't mean it in the classic sense, skillset wise he is inbetween positions of a PF and center. A PF without three point range is a dinosaur. A 6'9" center simply cannot anchor a top defense.

No they aren't lmao. There are still plenty of relevant 4's without 3pt range. He is young, a lot of time to develop.

Robert Williams is 6'10 and a PF/C, in the mold of Serge Ibaka. He's got 3pt range too. Y'all are both wrong.

If he was 2" taller he'd be compared to David Robinson.
 
Kansas got lucky that was an awful play design at the end by Scott Drew, seemed ignorant to the lateral quicks of KU's defenders, no reason to inbound the ball to a player heading in the opposite direction of the hoop with 8 seconds and an athletic disadvantage.... terribly wasteful. Tremendous showing from Josh Jackson despite just 16 points.

LaGerald Vick's one offensive rebound in this game was noteworthy imo. I really think he's underrated. He's clearly got the tools to be a starting NBA SG IMO... Better prospect than Tim Hardaway Jr, who I always vouched for here..


Donovann Mitchell with another stalwart effort for UL, he saved them from the upset. His emergence seems to be an underreported story too..

Cincinnati wing Jacob Evans with yet another solid all around stat line in victory.

Jalen Brunson seems to be really coming on lately for Nova too.. He's definitely better than Jawun Evans I don't give a damn what anyone has to say about that matter.
 
I like this Swanigan kid. He's a monster... pretty skilled. Not sure why he's in the twenties... is it because of his pig tails?
