Re: NBA Thread
I don't think he would have been drafted as high. Creighton's offensive scheme under McDermott has never had a one man show, not sure he would have worked out there.

Re: NBA Thread
Not sure if that guard is supposed to be Morant, but Morant has not averaged only .5 less rebounds than Zion over his career.GeorgesGoons wrote: ↑Wed Nov 30, 2022 1:43 pm I know a guard that is averaging 0.5 rebounds less over their career, and are tied this season from that same draft class.
Pels don't need rebounding, they use as a strategy/scheme Zion leaking out more to get out on the break, have done so for his past 2 seasons since they already have an elite rebounder on the team.
Also...we're discussing rebounding

Re: NBA Thread
Only because Billy brought it up. But Zion career rebounds is at 6.9 and Ja is at 6.4. at least that's what it says when I Google both playersshel311 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 30, 2022 2:06 pmNot sure if that guard is supposed to be Morant, but Morant has not averaged only .5 less rebounds than Zion over his career.GeorgesGoons wrote: ↑Wed Nov 30, 2022 1:43 pm I know a guard that is averaging 0.5 rebounds less over their career, and are tied this season from that same draft class.

Re: NBA Thread
I started watching Morant his last year in college and became a fan. I didn't watch NBA for years because it was boring to me and I had nobody to sit my ass in the seat as a must watch guy. That's why I'm a fan of Memphis. But born and raised in Omaha and then moved away for 24 years but never claimed to be from anywhere but OmahaWhittness10 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 30, 2022 4:53 pmYou from Tennessee or Nebraska?
