Davidson is a small school and pretty sure Steph wasn't hurt a lot in college.

Remember him in the tourney. Yikes.

He wasn’t hurt.

It was exactly what I said. He was a tweener.

And before Steph, nobody that played like Steph ever became more than a role player scorer type.

Somebody else mentioned something about his ankles and I said pretty sure he wasn't.

No I meant, Sixers fans think Simmons is garbage, is he still garbage on the Nets?
He’s not garbage. He’s just leaving a ton of meat on the bone with his talent. He’s a coddled athlete that needed to be cucked. Who he becomes will be determined how he responds to what has transpired.

If I remember right.....Curry wanted to play for Virginia Tech but was only offered a walkon spot. Davidson recruited him for a while before he signed.

Major schools were scared off by him being skinny.

I watched Steph play in high school multiple times.

Tech didn’t offer him a scholarship because he wasn’t good enough.

He was a bit of a late bloomer physically and everything started to really come together for him after he got to Davidson.

I even heard the Steph recruitment story straight from Davidson coach Bob McKillop.

Basically Steph was playing terrible in the biggest AAU tournament he did prior to senior year. There were a few small D1 schools there to watch him, but he was so bad first 2 games they all left and didn’t come back.

McKillop was impressed by Steph’s demeanor. He never appeared visibly upset, always remained an encouraging teammate and continued competing hard.

So McKillop stuck around to see him play better in the later games, and offered him a scholly right after. the tournament. And I believe it was his only offer.

Trying to figure out lunch right about now.

We shall see.

I think there is a fairly significant chance that he doesn’t suit up for playoff games in Philly.

I hope he does though.

Sixers are going to be much improved with Harden. Maxey is free to play more of an attacking role and I love it.

If Maxey becomes the 3rd guy.....do the Sixers try and deal Harris in the offseason?
