Just took a break for lunch and see you guys have taken a break from Call of Duty. Nice. Going to Swing by the Y and let the director know everyone “has a shot at the NBA” if they tweek a few areas of their game. Im going to drop off this forum. Pretty clear most of you have never played competitive Basketball or you wouldn’t be making dumbass comments about everybody and their brother having “a shot at the NBA” and even questioning if our 2 guard could be a first round draft choice. Mind blowing. Most of you probably got cut from your junior high team so I understand. You talk like every guy I’ve ever known to that’s 5’8” or less. That must be awful. I’ll be back to work soon. Give em hell at Call of Duty. oh yea, I’ll give you a call on draft day. We can have a reunion with our top ten guys. I’ve shared these posts with some of my fellow hoopsters. You guys are real idiots

Learn the game. You are embarrassing.

Not interested* However, you are correct. I just hope Hightower can fix his free throw shooting. Then, he can join the rest of our top 7 in the NBA. Happy? Done sniffling. Lol. Wow.

You might want to read the entire thread! We actually had a poster asking “could Goodwin be a first round draft choice””””. You now are saying a “Tiny” chance? Which is it?? Who’s wishing that someone live in a mobile home?? That’s for bitter people and Junior High kids. I’m neither. I’m just interested in writing about a topic until I believe it read, then respond. It works better.

I said earlier that If you play in storm it’s highly unlikely you could get hit by lightning but it does happen. Anything is possible. My point is the odds are unbelievably slim. Almost zero. You act like these guys have a solid shot. That is completely insane. For every Caruso You show me I’ll literally show you a 1,000 with much greater talent that didn’t make it!!! That’s a fact. There are 300+ division 1 schools and this conversation is about 5-6 have a legit shot at the NBA??? Really??? I’m guessing you don’t invest in the stock market??? You have to cut through all the bull**** and do a lot of analysis including their competitors. If our guys were “stocks” you’d invest your hard earned money that they were “legit” going to make it to the NBA??? I hope you don’t mind living in a mobile home.

Not very good examples? 1) Jimmer is NOT in the NBA. How is that not a good example. He’s NOT in Period. Meaning if he were good enough right now he’d be in. 2) Grayson Allen is NOT on the Memphis Grizzles!! He’s on the Vancouver Grizzles. FYI that’s a G league team. Again, he’s not in the NBA right now because he’s not good enough Both of these guys are absolute studs. To think that Goodwin could be called before either these guys is insane. 3) Lastly, Willie Reed is a bad example. He’s score a 1,000 points against Bell and Willie is in the G league. BTW he’s a stud. Read my post again. These guys are not in the NBA with all of their talent??? I am a huge Billiken fan and believe these are all great kids. I’m not certain I’ve missed but a handful of games in 20 years but I’m also realistic. It’s Insane talking about guys going to the NBA that have accomplished absolutely nothing expect Goodwin. Sadly, Jordan doesn’t have the skill set. I would love to have this conversation after the draft of 2021.

Look up Jimmer Ferdette is in China averaging 40 points per game and can’t break the NBA! Grayson Allen is in the G League. He can’t crack the G league. I was likely a Billiken fan before you were born. Doesn’t keep me from going to fairy tale land. This stuff blows my mind!

If you use a theory based on Treveon Graham you could argue that anyone had a legit shot at the NBA. You can also get hit by lightning if you play out in storms long enough. Just plan on playing out there for a few hundred years. I am having a hard time comprehending I’m reading we have 5-6 potential NBA players on our team???? Where the he’ll am I!????

I guess we can wait until draft day. There is a difference between being a huge Billiken fan being blind to facts. Watch the NBA zone night and tell me Goodwin can play in the NBA. Please. Bess is 6’6” tall, arguably one of the top defenders in the country, shoots 80% from the line, developed a nice jumper and he can’t make it. Did you get see a parent have a pretty daughter and dream up she could be Ms USA or a high school kid hit 400 in baseball and his parents say he’s going to the major leagues. Don’t get caught up in emotion. We’ve people saying Bell could make it in the NBA and he’s played one game over 20 minutes. Willie Reed is not in the NBA and he’s score break Wilt C. record every night. Have you ever seen Marquee Perry or Kevin Lisch???? I have and Never ever for a look. Please.

Just so we know ithis thread has talked about players going to the NBA on this team that aren’t even playing half a game, have only played a total of 10 D-1 games, can’t hit the side of a barn 15 feet from the basket, etc. There is no one on this team going to the NBA!!! They wouldn’t be at St Louis playing SIUC and Eastern Washington if they were. We would be 18-0 if any of these guys were that good I wish they were hit they are not! Not even close!

As soon as I figure out where the hell this guy came from I’d be more then happy to evaluate. Lol. Realistically, I should get put in the game before him.

Perkins has a much greater shot than Goodwin. He had two superb years of JUCO and has built with 1/2 of a successful season in D-1. He’s a loooong shot with another 1 1/2 years to grow his game. The key to Goodwin’s game is rebounds and put backs. Those would all disappear in the NBA. Average ball handler at best. Horrible free throw shooter. No chance at the NBA. 0% shot. Great kid and young man and will be an average Player overseas. Absolutely no way to give an opinion on Jimmerson having only played 10 games of college basketball. Ask me in 3 years. BYW, in case it’s brought up, 0% for French. With his style of game at 6’7” he’d get destroyed in the NBA with all interior players between 6’9” -7’0” tall.

Who the hell is teaching these guys how to shoot a free throw. Goodwin is off 3 inches to where his follow through is. I surprised he even makes his pathetic 50% from the line. My freakin grade school coach would have had a stroke if we hit 50%!!!!!! This is dealing beyond belief. Does anyone wonder why we shoot 40 free throws in a game???? Im surprised they don’t make us shoot a 100 in a game. We would never win!!
