Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 5377482, member: 405"] Well, ok, that's shitty coaching, I agree. But if you look at the last 20 years of SU hoops, we've had too many PF type of guys who don't stay inside enough, fall in love with taking jump shots, and that's pretty much the end of their career. They transfer, or enter the draft and fail to make a team. If you watch any NBA at all, you know that Freeman turning into Kevin Durant is several years of hard work and humility away. As Boeheim once said to Derrick Coleman, "If you stay inside and rebound, you're going to make a lot of money some day." Is Donnie Freeman the outside shooter that Cole Swider is? Not even in the same league. Cole is pretty much as tall - I think both are 6-9 - and Cole is a pretty good rebounder. Donnie has a hell of a lot of work to do; that's where the humility part comes in. [/QUOTE]
