Miles ahead of the rest

FWIW, the line is down to -3.5.

I don't want to speak too much on it, because I know we see it happen more and more today with people you'd never expect. With that said, knowing Marcus as long as I have and knowing the type of man he is, which is a hell of a father, loves his wife, such a family man.... I just have a very hard time believing this is actually true. Someone like Marcus wouldn't do something like this.

Never agreed with a post more than this one. I have missed the Big 12 since the day we left. The Big 10 is just boring in all aspects to me. Also, as much as I love PBA, I miss everything about going to the Bob for home games. There was just something about it that was special. Bigger doesn't always mean better

I apologize if i just missed it, but where is this at? I can't seem to find new video on him

A couple notes on Zion Williamson. he does have a jump shot. You can find it in a lot of his highlight reels. Also, not taking anything away from how talented he is (because my goodness is he a freak athlete), but if you watch every single video, the competition is absolutely pathetic. He looks like he's playing with Freshman and sophomores in a very small class.

How far are you going back? Gesell would be your PG

I would love to see the shot chart from last night. The amount of shots missed within 5 feet last night will make every single one of us cringe!

Nana isn't a top 150 (yet, at least). I can't figure out who the 9th is

Where did you see this at?

Dennis Smith Jr. is ridiculous. Kid is gonna be good.

Alonzo is the only player you need on that lineup. Zo could start for our hoops team and its been like that since the day he walked on campus. Unbelievable athlete and one hell of a basketball player.

I coached Hannah throughout middle school actually. She was probably the most developed/skilled player i had seen at that age group to come out of Lincoln in a long time. She has a lot of work to do on her shooting touch but very high IQ, very skilled, and is a great person to be around!

This is completely accurate, and still frustrates the hell out of me. At the time, Mike was the #9 rated ESPN PG in that class. (I know some people don't care about rankings, but that's still an important fact to mention). He made it very clear to Doc that he wanted to strictly be a PG, and Doc wanted him to play more SG. Mccaffrey straight up told him he could play PG so he chose Iowa. It was as simple as that.

Dourisseau would be high on my list. Suprised no one has mentioned Sek Henry yet

That's very apparent...any team tells him they're picking him and he's gone. The question is whether or not he's going to do so without a guarantee of being picked. Terran left without a guaranty of getting picked, and he didn't get picked. He took a risk, and things still turned out well for him. The question is whether Andrew is willing to take a similar risk. Looks to me like the answer to such a question is, "Yes." I wouldn't say things necessarily turned out "well" for him. The D-league definitely isn't where TP wanted to end up at.

Watson has very similar qualities to AI. Also i love the Nick Van Exel comparison for Anton. In Nicks prime, he was unstoppable. Also, although Jordy is left handed and will play the center position, i would love to see him add some Lamarcus Aldridge to his game.

It's up to 60 now. No AW III No Shavon Either :-( Yup. Shavon was a great college player but he's either going to play in Europe or go pro in something besides basketball. I wonder what the level/pay of play is in Denmark, where is mother is from? i still think Shavon winds up on a d-league roster or even a NBA Roster next season. I don't see any way possible that Shavon ever winds up on an NBA roster

What did it mean by "and with a bad hire"? Implying that Miles isn't going to make it? Or are they referring to assistant coach hire? i would assume this isn't the case but i was confused by that.

Here are highlights from this year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MiiXGUR0bY I don't remember much about him at Lincoln High, just the name. If I remember right he was mostly a banger at Lincoln High. Looks like he has improved a lot. Merill has improved tremendously. He came back last summer and played pick up with us a few times. Solid player now. Still not a big 10 caliber player. Definitely athletic enough to play here, but skill level would be slow. Not saying he couldn't be good enough to play in a power conference though.

Yes, i had been hearing the same thing from someone since the first couple weeks Beckner got here. One of the family members of the staff had been telling me that since before the season started. This isn't much of a shock and not really much of a loss in my eyes when it comes to trying to keep a close knit bond within the program.

If they do move to quarters, I hope that the men's game doesn't do what the women did in that when a team reaches five fouls it is a two shot foul. The college game is trying to become identical with the NBA game so this will most definitely be the case. a two shot foul after 5 fouls in a quarter will almost definitely be the new rule to go along with it.

Every coach has different philosophies about fouling when up 3. Some coaches are all for it and some are against it. Not saying Jay Wright is against it but not all coaches agree about fouling late when up by 3.

Especially against teams that play a 2-3 zone against us. Backside alley oops can happen AT LEAST once a game against zones like that

Koster is solid, especially for only being a sophomore. Never really dominates a game but is just very smooth and doesn't really get rattled. Very under control and has a nice overall game.

He's under the radar because of how lazy he plays I tend to agree with you. My son goes to Central so we go to the home games. If you notice, against any team with size that can match him, he doesn't do very well. I coached at a class A school this season and we played central midway through the season. They dominated us in the second half because we were very young this season, but i was hardly impressed with him. He had a great FT stroke, but outside of that he was just lazy. Behrens yelled at him more than once because he threw him a perfect lob and he either didn't want to go get it, or didn't jump high enough to put it down. Half the game he was focused on standing out on the perimeter for some reason. The kid definitely has potential with that size, but he's gotta find some sort of motor in him if he ever wants to go anywhere with his game.
