Julius Randle would start in the Nba right nowComment -
Embid will be #1 pick when this year is done.Comment -
saloon this shitComment -
Nope. Wrong.
Not sold on Wiggins, but Parker, Randle, Embiid and I think Smart too are stars fast.Comment -
You're crazy.
Randle is the most ready to be a franchise guy the day he steps onto the court.
Gordon and Rondae Jefferson are dominating every minute they're on the court. The 2 best defensive freshman in the country, and among the best defensive players in all of college basketball regardless of class. Well ahead of all the others in the regard. People joke about defense in the NBA, but nothing impacts a draft stock more than where someone is projected to defend. Both these kids are sure fire lottery picks, and one of them comes off the bench.
Wiggins is a top 5 pick, and would have been in any draft over the last 10 years. Very possible an instant game changer. He will be a lot better in the league than he was in college.
Parker can score from everywhere. He's selfish as shit, wont play defense if his life depended on it - but that never stopped Melo from being one of the best players in the league. Parker is Melo light, but a lot smarter than Melo. Parker might be the best of the bunch when all is said and done.
That doesn't even include Embid, Smart etc.
These kids are the future of the NBA. Deepest draft since LeBron's. You are watching superstars in their infancy.
For instance, here's something I heard from an NBA scout the other day about the Arizona kids. "Rondae (Hollis-Jefferson) and Aaron (Gordon) are sure fire lottery picks. They are the wings that will be drafted to guard Durant and (Paul) George."
No shit, NBA scout said that to me less than a week ago. These kids are the future and the future is very bright.
JJ and the rest of the morons out there with very superficial knowledge of the game are upset kids aren't averaging 30 a game. This is college, you will never see someone dominate like that. LeBron never played in college, compare and contrast Jordan's stats etc.
This is the most talent in college in probably close to a decade. Only player in recent memory that could compare to the 4 kids I mentioned above is Anthony Davis.Comment -
You know nothing about basketball.
Don't just throw shit against the wall and hope it sticks.Comment -
Their teams are losing too much too bad teams
Superstars dont lose muchComment -
Aaron Gordon and Rondae have yet to lose.
Wiggins has played the toughest schedule in the game. There isn't a team since the 70's that would have gone through their schedule unscathed. Still a final four team, IMO.
All three of these kids are among the youngest players in college basketball. Wiggins slightly older than Gordon, but both barely turned 18.
Parker is on a bad team that doesn't play defense. If he were to start playing D as the superstar of that team, then maybe his team might too. I still don't put that on him so much, as he has the best college coach since Wooden.
Randle is on a very dysfunctional team. It's the equivalent of Randle going to the Kings. Ton of talent, some potential superstars on Roster. Everyone is more worried about individual success instead of team success.
Randle is the Truth.
Randle
Gordon
Parker
Wiggins
If you end up with any of those kids, you have a franchise player that will have his picture on most of the promotional stuff for years. I'd almost guarantee every single one of those kids get a Max 2nd contract.Comment -
good post Chalky and others but I coached an 11th grade team and know the game.
I got fired from that job but was set up
Randle if I had to pick one is almost readyComment -
All of these top freshman will start in the NBA next year and will all get drafted first round whenever they choose to enter the draft.
JJ, remember that except for the playoffs almost NO ONE plays legit defense in the NBA.
The NBA is purely about scoring for all games outside the playoffs.Comment -
Julius Randle the first player in ncaa history to have four double doubles in his first four tournament games
Ever.
What a letdown

JJ good luck manComment
