Title: Duke vs Louisville
Post by: alldaboston on February 20, 2016, 02:12:32 PM
Man Brandon Ingram looked bad today. Damion lee played well. And boy, Grayson Allen is looking like a real talent. Anyone think we could take him with our/mavs pick?

Aside from Ingram, Allen's scrappy. I like him. Seems to struggle against size though.

If Onuaku from Louisville declares and stays in the draft, he would be cool as a second rounder. Defensive minded center, good passing and shot blocking, although not too tall at 6'10. Great rebounder and strong too. Post moves simple and not a liability on offense at least. Vocal defensive leader, and age of a typical college freshman despite being a sophomore. Not very athletic, but I think he could be like a Gorgui Dieng. High Bball IQ and works hard like Dieng.

I watch all of UofL's games, and he's the only one on that team that I'd like the C's to consider drafting. Not a fan of Lee's prospects at all. I haven't given up on Rozier. He's fearless. I liked him over Harrell who I'm not excited about, and am glad they took a chance on Terry.

I thought Dieng was a much better high post player than Onuaku has shown.  He could hit the elbow jumper consistently and was a good passer.  More mobile too if I remember correctly.

Allen is a great college player, but as you point out he struggles against size.  I don't think he's a mid first pick.  Man, he's a tough kid though.  Took that shot to the mouth and came right back out shooting.
