Landry Shamet!! This dude isnot only gonna be a pro he's gonna be an efficent one.. 6'5" cg who shoots the lights out.. quickly becoming one of my favorite players and prospects in college. he's an excellent basketball player.
 
25-4-4-2blk-2stls in victory vs Duke for Bruce Brown! Playing like a 1st rd pick and making me look bad for dropping him out of the mock.
 
Eric Mika can probably get drafted this year after that phenomenal performance. I'd peg him at about #53 on the mock I posted yesterday. I could see him ending up in the 40's tho.


Gotta say I really don't think they pull that upset off if the Zags have a healthy Tillie. They absolutely crumbled down the stretch tho.

No doubt in my mind that BYU could upset some team in the 1st rd of the NCAA tourney. They're balanced. Haws and Emery are a legit backcourt. Mika's an NBA player and Childs is a very solid 4-star recruit.
 
Holy hell Lavar Bell is making it impossible for me to root for his kid(s). Dude is gonna be a major PITA for any NBA HC and franchise.

On another note, why is Leaf so low? Defensive concerns? Athletic mediocrity? I know it's a killer draft but the dude measured 6'8.75" without shoes, has a 6'11" wingspan, and 8'11.75" standing reach. That's not amazing but it's really, really solid for a 4. In comparison, Draymond has a 7'1.25" which is significantly longer but only an 8'9" standing reach which is significantly shorter.

He is also scoring 16.8 points on 63.1% from the floor (killer), including 46.2% on 1.8 3's per game which isn't high volume but it's killer efficiency, with 8.7 rebounds (solid) and 2.6 assists (very solid for a frosh big).
So what gives? Could he be viable insurance for Favors and fit Quin's system better? Is he redundant to Lyles? As much as I bet, I've not seen more than a couple minutes of UCLA this year.
 
LaVar is very very smart.. No doubt there's valuable lessons to be learned re-tracing his steps.. also there's no doubt in my mind that he's a master motivator and a damn good marketing hype guy...

What he's done has flown over heads to the point where there's many adults with fury and vitirol pointed in the direction of the teenage sons.. There was all sorts of adults celebrating their loss to Mater Dei the other night..

I don't think he's gonna be a major pain inthe *** either unless Lonzo or LaMelo lands in a completely awful situation and it's warranted. I think he'll recognize he's done enough to prep them for the NBA and have more of an approach of a 'normal parent'. Though Im certain reporters will be trying to goad him for shocking statements all the time.

There's articles on the Ball's covering the alternative style of play and training methods, quite simply people choose to fill in their own details and judge based off that.. Part of the reason I'm sure things have become misconstrued is because the story covers a topic that I've found people are usually uncomfortable talking about, which is the fear of failure.

Now I'm not saying LaVarr is the most likeable guy it's obvious how he could come across as pompous..

What I'm saying is the brothers shouldn't be judged on that. Lonzo seems to be the least like him of all the brothers, now the others are younger so he's at an advantage. He seems pretty down to earth for a teenager thats pretty much already a star.. He knows all the right answers to the questions he'll get too, deflects to his teammates like a star..
 
Leaf isn't redundant with Lyles he's got legit SF potential. He reminds of Kyle Singler, who fooled me and many others back in the day so I'm weary. At this point I like Rodions Kurucs better - Thats the same from the last update a month ago tho, he hasn't really dropped he was 26th and is now 28th after Anunoby and Anigbogu reemerged.


I'm very interested to see how Leaf measures and shoots for teams in workouts. Same for Lydon, IMO Lydon is the best 3pt shooter and Kurucs is the best natural SF.
 
After further review I'ma go on the record and say Keion Brooks Jr. will be better than Hayward. He's from Indiana too. UK would be crazy to not recruit this kid. Him and Scottie Lewis on the wing would be unreal.

Already has offers from Xavier, Purdue, KSU and Michigan St.

2020 draft is going to be absolutely loaded on the wing, even if the #1 player in the class RJ Barrett reclassifies up a year and goes in the 2019 draft.

You're hate for Hayward is so hilarious and well documented. I guess you didn't learn from your past mistakes and want to continue to eat crow in the future.
