KB21 Posted October 10, 2018 Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 1 hour ago, AHF said: I am expecting lots of losses but hoping for development from our youngsters. That won't qualify as a "very bad" season for me anymore than someone shooting a lower % while they break down their shot to fix the fundamentals. It will be a good season for me if we develop our young guys the right way and add a few more to that pool with our upcoming draft picks and with our projected cap room. So, you still believe in the myth that proper player development will occur in the setting of intentional losing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what happens when you tank. The suckitude is never ending. Yep I saw Plumlee and Poythress heading up other team's from court too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must have missed that Hamidou Diallo and Alex Abrines both got almost as many minutes as Poythress and Plumlee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A much better fit for the NBA than the NCAA. He needs to operate in space to be successful. He doesn't have handles but he moves off the ball well, smart and is very aggressive. 10 hours ago, KB21 said: He's not good. Trash post. Bagley been looking better than JJJ this preseason. JJJ gonna foul out in half of his NBA games this season.

Wasn’t he the highest vertical at the combine? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a great athlete. He reminds me a lot of PG13 when he came out of Fresno. Raw, talented but raw. He probably was at too high of a college level at UK. Would have been better at a smaller school.

Eh, let's be honest, he would've been better served going to a college more interested in actually developing him. #ShotsFired Seriously though, I know KY is better at developing than most of the 1-and-doners who typically just want guys close to being finished products (lookin'at you, Duke). But still ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But still ... Calipari is not the "be all, end all" of development but Diallo needed multiple years wherever he went. I do think, however, he would have gone pro direct from HS if he could have. Just wanted to tag that base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
