I'm not saying he won't be an NBA player.

I'm saying he won't be DC.

No one will ever be DC except DC

whoopty damn right. as for the chris mccullough comparison . i definitely remember him being called out post presser by JB early season even before he went down . glad he made his way back after the injury.
guessing he's not a huge syracuse fan.

Other posters may disagree, but I think there's still untapped potential in Bell defensively and in transition. He needs to bulk up some, but he's more athletic than many give him credit for. He made some very impressive plays in the second half of the season with chasedown/weakside blocks and exploding to the bucket. I'd like to see more of that next season, and Red needs to continue to prove he can develop players.

Dream on if he hasn't learned to rebound or play defense by the end of his sophomore year, it's not likely the lightbulb is going on now.

So you're saying you haven't learned anything since you were 20 years old?

You never got better at your job two years after getting hired?

What a ridiculous notion.

You see NBA players become reliable 3pt shooters after years in the league, but you don't think Bell can become a better rebounder/defender?

Re-examine your critical thinking.

While Bell can definitely improve, he’s probably the worst rebounder to ever play at Syracuse. He came to SU with zero rebounding instincts (and that may be an understatement). He still has a long way to go before he’s even net neutral on the rebounding front.

I agree w/ you except your ending suggestion. As you clearly established, there was not much, if any, critical thinking in bagger’s post

You’re big boned.

You’re big boned.

Why do you think I'm sensitive to this?!?!?!?!?
