Just amazing to me how many new guys isu is going to have next year. Lots of potential.

I don't get the TL bashing. He just scored 42 points. Maybe his defense was bad last year, so were Wiggs and Lard and they're going pro. Seems like his mid range game is improving - that might be where we need him anyway - pick and roll guy. If we're moving the 3 point line back, our outside percentages would decrease; I wonder if 3's will still be our modus operendi.
Bull ****No one is bashing him
Wasn't his hard nosed defense one of the things Prohm loved about him?Appreciate all the updates and Thompson's videos, as well as Jared's article. Tre Jackson is one I've felt is very underrated, based on the HS videos I've seen. He can stroke it from anywhere across halfcourt - much like he did in this game 1 - and, he has a good handle too. I expect he'll need to significantly improve on D, but he can bring some O.
Was also very pleased with what Leech, Bolton, and Zion showed. Others looked to have their moments too - again, just going from the highlights. Should be a fun year. JJ will provide some nice scout-team competition in practice as well.
Wasn't his hard nosed defense one Ok if the things Prohm loved about him?
Conditt wasn't too accurate on threes. So even though his shot looks good, take it with a grain of salt.Just watching those videos, Jackson, Leech, and Griffin really stood out. Condit's shot looks good too.
Bull ****
Read between the lines what people in the know say about him. It's not bashing it's tempering expectations while people hope the light will all of a sudden turn on. I really hope it does but I'm not holding my breath
So they've been sufficiently temperedTempering expectations? There doesn't appear to be many for him.
I can't say for sure - don't recall that. My D comment was solely from what I'd seen in the videos posted on Youtube. Certainly can't say they're conclusive, but his D didn't look great. His O sure did. (Doesn't mean he can't get there, by all means.)Wasn't his hard nosed defense one of the things Prohm loved about him?

Met the kid on the way out of the gym... Said he will do all of the games. I was looking for the dunk at the 24:35 mark of the game Leech and he had it. Kid had a business card too. Must do it for a side gig or something.So some poor bastard had to film all of this for QuadVisual? What a nightmare.
Beats working in a grain mill for $4/hr! Granted, that was 1988. Filming sweaty basketball players would have been a cakewalk.Met the kid on the way out of the gym...

Some have them for him. I just don't think it's right to go after a guy like Arctic who posts a lot of great info just because it's negative about a player, especially because it's not like it's some big secret
