Randle is pretty damn good.

Randle is pretty damn good.

Are you serious? Carmelo is much better than Randle as a freshman.

Randle is "pretty damn good". He's not Carmelo, but he's probably the closest thing left to a Carmelo in the field.

That wasn't the point of the post.

Randle is not Carmelo. But he is a top 5 draft pick surrounded by multiple future NBA players. You can't compare Kentucky most years to Syracuse. They get far more upper tier talent than we do (particularly since PayPalCal has been the coach):

I actually...like this post? Hell is frozen over. What a week.

Chris McCullough. That is all.

They said the same thing about Paul Harris.

Ranked 29th by ESPN, how many does Duke have ahead of him? Roberson was what? 31 last year? I'm not saying Chris won't be successful but let's see what happens before we anoint him the savior. He's not Carmelo, maybe not even Dante.

Please retort to posts like this with the following:


U gonna second guess the guy that has 900 wins? How many wins do you have?

ESPN dropped him because of his issues in school. 247's composite rankings have him as 16th.

I do not know the final stats but at half time Kentucky had 2 assists on 15 field goals. That's 13 scores from 1 on one or rebounds. In fact Michigan was very similar 2 assists on 14 field goals.

Did I say he wasn't? I just insinuated that Kentucky had a hell of a player in Randle with a mix of other talent. If Randle was on our team this year he would have been bar none our best player. Hard to debate that.

They had tons of points on offensive rebound tip dunks or putbacks vs Mich. They moved the ball beautifully against WSU and Louisville. One game they had 9 assists at H.

They are a dribble drive/motion team. All of them can pass. Their passing in the UL and WSU games especially was outstanding.

Wow, Kentucky has six (6) Micky Ds with single digit RSCI on their roster THIS YEAR! We have had two in our HISTORY... Think about that. Cal should win the tournament every year really..

I like McCollough and think he will be solid for us, but I think he is a lot closer to Jerami Grant then Carmello Anthony

 

[LAOrange]

I actually think McCollough looks like Christmas when he was in High School. It is amazing how Igor waits until the streak is over to show back up and then starts posting the sos as soon as we get tossed from the tourney.. There's some psychological syndrome going on in there someplace. He's like the guy that waits for the first hot day after a winter of record colds to remind us about global warming.

Completely different player than D Greene... Chris will be a defensive specialist in the 2-3 who I think will be a terror when it comes to blocking shots and rebounding more efficiently out of the 2-3... Offensively he isn't going to be circled on anyone's scouting report.. If they can get into transition and into the open court he will be unreal.. He runs the floor like a gazelle and should be really hard to guard in the open floor

 

[dasher]

He is no where near 29. A lot of things have made him fall in the rankings. This kid is special.

I don't remember the exact quote, but wasn't there an article a few weeks back where his high school coach said something along the lines of him being a bit raw and that it may take him a season to adjust to the college game or show his skill? Again, not using his words, but I vaguely remember an article on this.
