(INSIDER) Chad Ford Big Board 6.0

[Poitier]

Yea man .. if I'm Stauskas .. and I keep playing at the level he is now .. I'm out. He'll be a lottery pick.

Now .. does he wanna win it all? Or head to the league? His family is very well off in Canada. So I know money isn't an issue .. but it's every kids' dream to make it to the league. He gets my support either way.

Nik getting the fukk out of Ann Arbor He made it clear with his Youtube channel before he came in as freshman that the NBA was the motive. I'm just hoping that sending all these guys to the league will benefit us in getting better recruits from here on out

at Stauskas

at GR3 drop tho. Should come to school for one more year in my opinion. Needs to improve his iso game and needs to improve in jumper.

His biggest issue is mentally, in my opinion. One game he's all in, the next he's not. When he maintains a consistent approach to each game, he'll be ready.

That might not ever happen though, so he might jump this year no matter what.

Seems like the hype is fading at the top of the draft. Some teams are going to get lucky later in the draft

 

[Sly Cookin]

I also think James Young might be taken way before 18... he's got a really long wingspan and has hops, very streaky scorer but he can heat up really quickly and scores in a huge variety of ways.

I agree, he is one of the best sgs in the draft. He isnt a one trick pony either and has a high motor.

 

[Sly Cookin]

I been saying all season gr3 does not have the motor and aggressiveness on offense to merit a high pick. He will be a dorell wright at best if he learns to shoot.

 

[Poitier]

if Glenn Robinson III played in the Pac 12 his numbers would be lottery status with the no defense and transition teams they have out west. Instead, he went to Michigan were they run on majority of the possesions PnR exclusively. We don't get out in transition a ton, we aren't going to use him as the roll man and our offense requires him to stretch out the defense by sitting on the left wing instead of coming off curls, screens, etc... His defense is underrated too, considering he guards guys much bigger than him. Glenn is an ELITE mid range shooter but he does need to find his 3 point range. He is going to be a steal at the next level.

I don't get the McDermott love at all

Yea I read that. Stauskas also came right back saying his dad should shut his mouth cause he doesn't know anything. But I'm a believer that if there's smoke, there's fire .. and I'm pretty sure Nik and pops have talked about it extensively. I know he's probably gonna make the jump .. but I'm still holding out hope. Add another year of Nik, with another year of Big Mitch (since there's no way he leaves now.. with his back problem and all) .. including the rest of our sophomores.. and Walton. With our incoming class .. (which is solid. Not GREAT, but solid) .. it can be a hell of a year.

I'm just waiting for our classes to really take off. We're flriting with being elite again ..

You already know Jordan fitting to take McDermott in the first round.

I agree with you to a certain extent. Im watching caris levert go to work all game while gr3 is passive everytime he touches the ball. He has a good body for a sf and he has good defense, I'll give you that. But I am not drafting a player that is being groomed to be a 3 and D guy, just because I think I can change his game.

bennett won't even be on national team. nicholson killed it playing fiba ball last summer and trey lyles going top 10 next year, plus you got olynyk who's already a better player than he is.

List looks way off in some places.


I'm over Randle and I never liked Vonleh.

I see Boeheim's selling dreams to Chad Ford again
