If youre drafting Edey tbat high you’re expecting him to at least be a poetl type

yeah exactly

 

[The Q]

yeah exactly

I actually wonder if tor doesn’t shop poetl

They suck and are getting worse (losing trent) and expensive (Barrett and quickly aren’t cheap and Barnes needs a new deal)

New Orleans and Memphis obvious places that could use him

I don’t like the Boban comparison for Edey, he seems a lot more skilled around the basket.

Barrett is the real issue imo. What's his impact on winning? He can fill a stat sheet up but does that translate to wins?

They're just in a tough spot with roster design at the moment.

Definitely

It is a horrible and disrespectful comparison

 

[bksballer89]

Boban wouldn’t be b2b national player of the year in cbb so let’s stop with that silly comparison

At this stage I don't think you can do enough to warrant a roster spot for Boban.

I think the comparison is more about how they move than offensive skill set. Both move like they're running in mud. Edey is definitely more skilled offensively than Boban. But outside of being used as a rim protecter in a zone, he's going to struggle defensively.

I'm not as down on him as some here. Where he goes will be the biggest factor in how his career turns out, imo. I think Denver would be perfect, especially if Joker took him under his wing.

Well yea.

He needs to be with a big that can show him the ropes.

Joker is a perfect role model given what he's overcome on that front.

These kids ain't here to play school! Coach Prime went off his players.

Deion Sanders rips Colorado football after professor says players disrespectful in class

Colorado football coach Deion Sanders has been outspoken in the past about fostering a culture that prepares his players for life after their playing careers.

"You on the field, but you ain't doing nothing. You in a relationship but you ain't got no love. You at the mall but you ain't got no money. Got ability but no darn talent."

Good for Sander that he stresses education to his players.

Trust me.....I know.

It's going to e hilarious if he gets drafted that high.

I challenge anyone to find a worse play by play/analyst than Kirk Gibson for the Tigers. I feel bad for the guy having Parkinsons but holy shit man. How is it possible he's employed in this role

This is nothing new under the sun. It starts in 3rd grade. Women run down other women. They bitch about the patriarchy but there’s no greater enemy to women than women themselves. Sad. But reality.

 

[bksballer89]

Great start for Iowa

Totally true.

I can’t believe I am watching women’s basketball. Hopefully Iowa wins. Great start
