Message: [QUOTE="orangefan13, post: 291696, member: 906"] I think if the board needs anything its more negativity and criticism not towards posters but towards opinions of what happens on the court and players strength. People who sound not just confident but almost sure of their posts. I Get tired of hearing so your giving up on the third year jr who has ton of experience(paul harris for example) are you nuts? People were saying Melo probably won't make the NBA after his freshmen campaign. The guy was 2 and done. I thing we should Brag and boast more about players strengths. Sometimes we get alittle to team orientated I think. I love for example Albany touting Waiters all year and I was on the bus for him preseason some didn't even want him on the team. I loved how everyone is excited for Fab melo after he tears it up against pope. I love when Moqui was pushing southerlands stock the last few years. I am saying now that MCW will be one of our best three passers ever at syracuse. AND not just possibly but as a confidence builder he has a good shot to be our best passer ever. And I am not talking about numbers or assists im talking about passing right to a direct spot and ball movement iq. I think what people have to realize this is college ball. Its different then the pros you get combo players who really aren't a one or a two. Who really aren't a 2 or a three who really arent a 3 or a 4 ect. College ball you get alot more weaknesses and that is going to translate to more criticism. Heck even NBA players get criticized rediculously. Thets take AO, Flynn, Wes, Rautins,Greene, Hak, Rick Jackson, Nichols and Carmelo and put them up against this years past team and see what happens. It would be total annilation by the pros by like 25 plus points in 40 minutes. But, none of those guys outside MELO are scoing much in the NBA. And for the record I HATE espn. I think its pathetic the way they handled the davis case. It gave us a awful name on live tv and they stuck their nose in against our program on sports medias biggest stage. Im all for negativity it shows surety. would you prefer hearing its duke they are going to the final four this year after their epic first round choke? Now Kentukcy as much as I hate them there was a team to be pretty sure about. [/QUOTE]
