On the bright side I can not wait to see the twins at Kentucky!
On the bright side I can not wait to see the twins at Kentucky!
Did his dad really not know where they were going until they announced it? (He was still saying "I still don't know where they're going" like 5min. before the press conference).
That's really hard to believe to me...
I re-kindled my network while back in KY. Spoke with lots of people and should maybe be able to provide some insight, again, like I used to.. but not promises.
I have some stuff, but mostly non Jazz related ... I'll post some stuff in the next few days.
My Big Board currently:
1) Noel
2) Smart
3) Muhammad
4) Mclemore
5) Oladipo
6) Porter
7) Bennet
8) Zeller
9) Kabongo

The fact that Shabazz can barely get an assist per game tells me that he won't be that great.
I agree. I watched some of the UCLA game tonight and I came away unimpressed. He had another knucklehead moment tonight. He threw a hissy fit because his PG didn't pass him the ball on a fast break. Besides the fact he looks out of shape and slow. I do not see off the chart athleticism. He looks like an average athlete and a tweener. I haven't see him play too much so I could be wrong but for now he doesn't seem like a superstar type talent.
This is good news.
Any word as to why the Bledsoe trade didn't go down? You can just hint at it if it's too risky. Like one wink, we needed to give up Burks/Hayward. Two winks, we needed to give up x2 picks. Three winks, Clippers just got cold feet, not wanting to risk Chris Paul injury/not re-signing.
Got nothing on the Bledsoe stuff. One person said there was "nothing to it." (but that's all I got)
'Bazz will be better in the pro system than what you're seeing at UCLA. Book it.
But if he's a "me first" type player - is he ever going to fit in any system? There are multiple incidents now confirming this contention.
UCLA players just seem to perform at the next level Westbrook, Collison, Love etc. Muhammad seems to go hard on every play though and he was wide open I was wondering why Drew II didn't throw him an alley-oop. Muhammad is the type of player who should touch the ball on every possession and sometimes he goes 3-4 possessions without touching the ball. Nonetheless he is only averaging 1 assist a game and does look a little out of shape but the dude is leading all freshman in PPG with 18.7 and that is impressive considering the talented freshman this year.
