bauman Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 I'm surprised at how many go with U on Perkins scoring 14.5 pts per game. If they are correct we can kiss the NCAA tournament good-bye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are correct we can kiss the NCAA tournament good-bye. depends on what the rest of the billikens score. if you notice those predictions have the billikens scoring 90 points a game. i.e. everyone is getting in the act. so if that side of the equation is true, perkins 14.5 is not a bad thing. now if we only score 58 points a game and perkins has 14 that is a problem. remember michael jordan only scored 20 points a game at north carolina one season. in the nba the only season he only scored 20 ppg was his last season when he was about 100 years old. to be a 20 ppg scorer at the college level is pretty amazing imo.

I think Perkins averages more than that but I expect to see him play maybe 70% of minutes tomorrow compared to an average game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't and still don't see anywhere where it said the poll was for the exhibition game only. Since that's the way some thought it was then I can understand some of the replies.

I remember Carter saying (Pre-Nesbitt) that he thought Gibby was the most NBA-caliber player on the roster...hoping he proves that this year.
