Dukegotgame

who got the buzzer beater?

i would like to see donta back up here. anyone know whats going on with him?

Quote: Quote: he is playing aganist NBA Caliber athletes every night, yet he still is un guardable. No he is not. He is playing against NCAA athletes every night, very few of which will be NBA starters. But morrisson's has much more of an NBA ready body than JJ does. Somehow I doubt you would be making this thread if JJ played for UNC the fact that you have to bring up my college team only says you have nothing to dispute what i say. nobody questions jj basketball skill, they question his atheltic ability. there are many players in the ACC who are NBA material in terms of pure athleticism. They just do not have the basketball skills of someone like jj. I find it hard to believe that someone who is 6 foot 8 and gets 1 or 2 more rebounds than jj a night in the WACK LEAGUE is that much more "NBA READY" phyiscally

yet the same doubters praise adam morrison, someone who plays aganist far inferior talent than JJ? what am i missing? JJ has been playing aganist bigger and more athletic players all his life. he is playing aganist NBA Caliber athletes every night, yet he still is un guardable. He is hitting jumpers in people's faces off the dribble, driving, making nice passes... what more do you want?

please turn on the duke/miami game now

chillz i had made me want to shoot him at times, but he clearly is getting better and i really think he can become a great player.

is there any proof to this rumor, or just talk?

lol there is a big difference from being guarded by people like dj strawberry than someone like that small white guy on stanford. people always say how will jj get his shot off aganist bigger,stronger,faster,etc players... well he is already doing it... and quite well jj is also a much better passer than morrison and while jj will never be known for his defense, he is not a bad defender

Quote: The option won't work in the NFL. That's the only offense Michael Vick will ever feel a comfort level in, because that's his mentality. He's not a quarterback. He's a glorified running back. 100 percent pure ignorance

wow. spoken like a true idiot who thinks that the acc comp isnt much better than the crap morrison plays

marvin is way better than morrison lmao! do you see the people this cat plays aganist? and the sad thing is he still struggles to create his own shot

Quote: Who on this board over rates his athleticism, I have not read it. lol do you not remember kb comments on jj when we got him?

Quote: Quote: so lets keep the dumbass comments out of this topic Then don't say things like this; Quote: i also dont think he looks that expolsive to me. and im comparing him to the kobe,lebron,wade, etc because thats the level i would like him to ulitmately reach. People here know the game well enough that when you say stuff like that you just make yourself look bad. lol dont text my basketball knowledge. why it is stupid to compare jj to the next level of elite guards? do you think he has maxed out on his game? THAT makes YOU look bad. oh and to whoever said something about me liking duke, keep going because it only shows you have nothing else to say

i dont understand why he insists on shooting a floater everytime he is in the lane. he is 6 8 with a very strong body and from the times i have seen him try to get up, he jumps very well. he should be trying to dunk it everytime he gets in that far and he will at least get a foul. let me re state my stance that i think he is a very good overall player, but i feel people over rated his shooting and athelticsim. by the way i have seen him play before this year, but obviously i have gotten the chance to see more of him this year since he is on the hawks. so lets keep the dumbass comments out of this topic

Quote: You must be talking about JJ Reddick, because you haven't really been watching Joe Johnson in Atlanta, have ya? Though he's not quite the Kobe/ T-Mac, he is pretty e at times and does dunk here and there. He just has to continue to grow into the role of leader and learn how to play like a $12M+/ year allstar, all while keeping Al happy and manning the point 40-50% of the time. We need a pure PG that will allow JJ to play like he did last night more consistently. He commented on that very topic, saying that it takes a lot of pressure off him. It allows him to play SG and be more aggressive scoring-wise. So start watching more than just the tip off and the boxscores. worthless post

you guys are missing the point. i said he is a very good overall player. however hi shooting and athelitcism disappoint me. when we got him, i think everyone thought his shooting was the best part of his game. well i can agree that his 3pt percentage is somewhat because of our offense structure, his ft percentage is unacceptable for such a "great" shooter. i also dont think he looks that expolsive to me. and im comparing him to the kobe,lebron,wade, etc because thats the level i would like him to ulitmately reach.

first off i want to say that overall i think he is a very good player. however when we got him, i was lead to believe he was a very strong shooter. pure shooters dont miss so many mid range shots, shot 75 percent from the ft, and shoot an average 3pt percentage. also does anyone else think he lacks explosiveness? now maybe he is a throwback, but i never see him even attempt to dunk. you would think at 6 8 with that body type he would be looking to dunk a lot. also he just doesnt seem to have that blow by you ability. he seems to make a nice move alot only to get caught behind, when a guy like kobe or lebron would have put in your face

hahaha you would trade jj,marvin, and smoove for jo???? i think you have lost it

lol yeah 4 million is a huge difference when your talking about going from 1 mil to 5 mil, but when we get up to 9 mil vs 13 mil, really what the hell is the difference lol

josh smith needs to play over chillz. at least smith has talent

Did anyone see how much of a difference al made esp with jj? jj played much better wit al out there because he wasnt the only legit scorer. if we trade al away im afarid jj will not play as well and everyone will say he is a bust and we will make a rash decision also there is no way chillz should be playing over smooth. enough said

martin won the rushing title last yr lol

our run defense is not poor at all. we have played bad one week and great the next. for example, we gave up almost a combined 200 yds to the saints backup rbs and then hold martin to 20.

the falcons will win but it will be closer than most think. the falcons must come to play or they could have another scare like the saints game

in a situation like this, what happens to his salary for the upcoming yr?
