    Do you know how good Morrison and Fredette were in college? Obviously not.

    I'm not comparing him to either one of those cats, because they don't even play the same positions. I'm saying he will have the same struggles that they did adjusting to the quickness of the pro game, both offensively and defensively.

Oh and they all led the nation in scoring in their last year in college. Yeah....they really are sooo different. C'mon.

    McDermott final year: 26 ppg
    Morrison final year: 28 ppg
    Jimmer final year: 28ppg
    McDermott's game is more low-post based than the other two. He's definitely better than both, but to react the way raydog did was, well, just raydog being raydog. As clueless as ever.

    Ray Dog buried until he responds.

    NC, of course McDermott posted up more, he was a PF. Don't think Jimmer was posting up much at BYU lol. Aside from position tendencies, all three players are about as similar as it gets.

    In terms of their "strengths" (much better suited for the college game) and physical weaknesses, I agree. I do think McDermott will have the better pro career of the three, but that's not saying much.

    Dougie traded to Bulls. Bulls definitely could use the help on the offensive end.

    I can see it now......Jimmer and McDermott lead the Bulls to a championship.

    Y'all will think I'm crazy, but ignore color and McDermott is like a poor man's version of Carmelo. Carmelo not a superstar athlete, but he's broad, tough and can just flat score and shoot from anywhere. Carmelo a bit thicker but both 6'8. Only reason nobody would compare them is color.

    Yes, you're crazy.
