You call it like you see it, but you didn't actually see the game and question Fosters potential before he even logged a minute. Doesn't seem like you wait to see anything, you just fire away.
I listened to the game on the radio and only questioned things like Bolton flying down the court and launching a three 8 seconds into the shot clock. John and Eric questioned it on the radio too. I was also critical of us coming out and our first 5 shots were all 3's.... and all misses. You don't have to see that kind of stuff to know it's not good basketball.
As for Foster.... I'm going by what Prohm has said... and rumblings about his game from people that have seen him play in high school and in all star games, etc. A lot of people said he's a 7 footer, but doesn't play on the inside much... not even against shorter guys in high school. He liked to shoot 3's a lot in high school. And then defensively, he was kind of slow footed, but could block shots. And a lot of people questioned his desire and effort at times too. That's just scouting report stuff.
He obviously has a TON of potential though. He can be elite if he wants to be. Obviously I'm rooting for him all the way.
So yes.... I call it like I see it (or hear it in this case).
