- olynyks gonzaga eliminated. He had a decent game at 26 pts , 9 rebounds etc.
I watched the game and the thing he kept doing for most of the game is pick and rolls. At the 2nd half Wichita State did an excellent job of guarding it and Olynyk was not as effective. He has some decent post moves, but rarely went to that route. Don't think he is really comfortable down at the block. Also decent on defense, but his lateral quickness is avg to below avg. He is going to suffer in the nba, unless he can bulk up to be able to guard nba centers.
Personally i don't think i would draft him. The avg defense is too much of a liability imo.
- The further michigan advances the better it will be for the celts. Guys like Glen Robinson 3 and Trey Burke will keep climbing and others may drop then to us. I like Robinson 3 but i think he will be gone from 10-14. Tim Hardaway Jr. has a nice feel to the game thx to pops. Good pentration and outside game. Not extremely quick nor athletic but crafty and has nice size for a sg at 6'6. Is projected to go in the late 1st round but could be in demand by the 20's
- Michael Carter Williams def looks like the 2nd coming of Penny Hardaway. Penetration and hangtime finish around the basket is top notch. Excellent passer and due to his size at 6'6 i can see him play either the sg/pg. Smart , defensively capable, plays with passion and high iq. Only thing stopping him is his lack of consistent shot. Was projected to go 15-20. But maybe closer to 7-12. Just too talented even without a shot
- Mitch Mcgary is a beast. reminds me of perk. His picks are punishing on defenders. Very strong, runs good for his size and scored i don't know how many garbage buckets today.
- Russ Smith from Louville is like a smaller Jordan Crawford. Extremely agressive and can go on hot streaks of scoring. Not a generous passer and at only 6'1 nobody knows what position he can play at the next level. Very good defender. Sounds like a guy danny could be interested in?
THE BAD
- CRABBE after a great first round game. Was horrific today against Syracuse. Just zero confidence out there and passed up shots left and right. I think scored only 4 points and went like 2 for 5
