Terran Petteway projected as First Round pick

[Red_Alert]

Good one fellas but no I'm not from Petteway's school hell I'm not even from Texas, I'm from the DMV area Prince George's County to be exact, hell I wish I was LBJ I need his money, and if you want to know the question about him attending that particular HS...... hell I dont know!!! I went to Nebraska from 95'-99' also! Am I in the clear?????

Clear, sir.

GBR

Huskers will win the National Championship

Petteway will be on "The Journey" on BTN at 6:00 pm Central if you haven't seen it yet.

I watched it. I'm starting to develop a genuine love for basketball. I don't understand this feeling and I'm scared.

Actually everything's running 25 minutes late.

Yeah. It was supposed to be on at 5 and 6

Instead 5:25 and 6:25 since things ran late.

After watching some of his highlights he could use another year just so espn can hype him up and if neb makes a big leap. He's athletic as hell but I think 1 more year wouldn't hurt. But man he's nice maybe if Nebraska makes a deep run i would say jump

 

[PJ692]

What up good people!!!!! Man this this damn team is getting better with each game they're playing and the D is nuts. Just wait til Ray gets he's stroke back, I'm telling you fellas it's going to come at the right time. I watched the Journey last night when I got off from work, man that damn kid is a f@#$in animal. I love playing ball and working out but damn, Miles had to tell him to stop!!! They have far exceeded my expectations. Let's keep this shit going baby!!!

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

I agree, Pedro

He could use another year to work on his ball handling. Very sloppy last night.

Tim Miles -

"Terran's been one of those guys where I think that he just cut down on turnovers and the amount of quick shots he takes, and it's allowed him to be more efficient," Miles said. "At the end of the day, he's a very hard, difficult guy to cover for any opponent. He can run the point, he'll play the two guard, he'll play the three man, he'll play the four, he'll guard the best player - whatever he has to do, he'll do it and he's athletic enough to do it. The other thing is he's really good in transition. His acceleration is as good as there is in our league. The kid can get it out, he's fast, and he's got a motor. He loves work, and those are all great characteristics."


DADBURNIT! I told ye all and ye all thought I was crazy

I tthink another will make a sure fire starter NBA wise. just so he doesn't ride pine or get sent to the D League

In college. Miles is referring to college.

This thread was about the NBA draft and people were arguing that he couldn't do it in the NBA.

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

Yes, I was talking about how he can play 4 positions at the College level.....not at the NBA level.

But still, my point was he is versatile. He CAN get down low and outrebound 6'9" posts because his vertical leap is 40 inches.

That's the reason he flies over those big bastards all the time like they're midgets.

If you watched the Creighton game this year then you saw him literally go right up and over Creighton's bigs 3 different times and stuff it right in their face. On one of those dunks they went in slow motion and his eyes were even with the rim.

He's a beast!

That's what I was talkin aboot RA....

But folks disagreed en sech

 

[Red_Alert]

I was a bit surprised to see him projected so high, but with that said he is extremely versatile. While the talent pool is definitely stacked, there aren't a lot of 6'6" guys who can play 4 positions.

I actually feel comfortable when Petteway is bringing the ball up the floor. His decision making on passes is really his only weakness right now. He also needs to grow up. He throws a fit from time to time when things aren't going Nebraska's way.

Yes you clarrified later, but the confusion stemmed from the first paragraph in this post. It reads as if you insinuated he could play 4 positions in the NBA.

Either way he's a good player who looks to be 1st Team All Big 10 and potentially POY.
