ESPN the experts...

[jcuse44]

dickie simpkins said he would pick Dion Waiters first to start a squad. Others scoffed at him

 

[jdubs30]

First what?

For an NBA team?
For a college team?
Out of hte Big East or the whole entire nation?

 

[jcuse44]

for the whole nation. to build a college team. Simpkins DID say that Dion was one of the only picks that is capable right now of doing it in BOTH college and the nba..

 

[Knicks411]

I would not pick Dion. Probably Davis.

 

[AZOrange]

I would not pick Dion. Probably Davis.

Any other pick is really just absurd.

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

Two things: 1) Dicke has done a lot of SU games this year; 2) We've all heard Dickie do SU games this year.

 

[reedny]

I don't know why people complain about him. The 'dunknastie' with a 'side of facial' is classic. He heaps praise on SU and is fun to listen to.

It's either him or Sullinger for me.

He's just funny and not polished. I don't dislike him. My NCAA all-star team would be:

G Kendall Marshall
G Dion Waiters
C Thomas Robinson
Anthony Davis
Michael Kidd-Gilchrist

Reserves
G Marcus Denmon
C Sully
Perry Jones III

 

[jekelish]

I think it's safe to sat that, outside of Dickie, no one other than a Syracuse fan would out Dion on a national All-Star team.

Frankly, I wouldn't. If there was a 4th Team All-America, maybe.

If he was starting and playing 35+ minutes a game he'd be at worst 2nd team all american.

 

[jekelish]

I agree completely, but if if's and buts were candy and nuts, I'd wish for more wishes.

Wait, I think I did that wrong.

 

[dollarbill44]

Don't get me wrong, Dion is a very nice player and he does a lot of good things for us, but to make him your first pick out of all the players in college hoops is fairly absurd, if you think objectively about it.

worst shooting team ever but there would be a lot of dunks

 

[SoBeCuse]

Yeah, I was going for the run 'n gun/lob city factor. The Creighton kid and Buford probably belong somewhere.

In all honestly mine would be

C - Davis
- Robinson
- Barnes
G - J Jenkins
G - Marshall

Reserves - Denmon, and Waiters
MKG
Sully

 

[310Pigpen]

Dickie loves the Cuse just look at the outfit he had on.

 

[sendithome]

Marshall is a nice passer however he's a poor shooter and horrible defender. He is one of the reasons why UNC was (is) underachieving this year.

 

[Section 314 Row C]

No love for Kevin Jones? I mean, he is a dirty mountaineer, but the kid can flat-out ball!!
