VTIME Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Exactly P. Diddy. I'm gaining more respect for you everyday although I'm sure you'll never have it for me. I've enjoyed your posts on mosports as well. I've been banned from there since December when I criticized the officiating at the Farmington tournament.

brianstl Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 I pretty sure that Drejaj didnt play in the Bonner league this summer because he was was already in Europe or getting ready to head there. The other years I believe he played some summer league ball back in NJ, and not that many here V. How many HS players are getting paid to play in Europe?

VTIME Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 >Nobody listens to Vtime cause it is really clear you have no >clue when it comes to hoops. Maybe I dont, but Brad doesnt either. You're telling me the MVP of the Hoosier Shootout cant get an offer. Thats ridiculous. Chasing the 6'0 Pullen over Brock. Just crazy. The Hoosier Shootout is one of the biggest tournaments in the nation, a local team wins it and has the MVP and you dont offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many message boards have you been banned from? I know of three (if you count this one), but if you count different personalities on the different sites you might have a couple more.

davidlee Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Where do Flechter and Stokes go to school? And what year are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tseugnekillib Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Rahmon Fletcher is a 5-9 speedster who scores. Weight around 160# Plays for KC Paseo. SLU has watched him numerous times this summer. Played for the talented KC Keys AAU team. I watched him in Nashville and Shawnee, Kansas. He had good or very good games. A lefty. Stokes is from one of the St. Louis city schools, maybe Career Academy. Also about 5-9. From my viewings, Fletcher is the much better player.

slufanskip Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 I've never seen Fletcher but I've seen Stokes play twice and I can't imagine we want him. Official Billikens.com sponsor of H Waldman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluecrewfinance Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Are these guys actually 5'9", or are they 5'9" like Will John is 5'9"? After hearing about Drejaj's "shortcomings" in above posts, I've inferred that they include shortness. Would we want a little guy running the point? Why/Why not? I'm in the "we don't" camp, by the way... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3star_recruit Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 >Are these guys actually 5'9", or are they 5'9" like Will >John is 5'9"? Stokes is 5'8. Fletcher is 5'9. >After hearing about Drejaj's "shortcomings" in above posts, >I've inferred that they include shortness. Would we want a >little guy running the point? Why/Why not? > >I'm in the "we don't" camp, by the way... If the players are athletic studs, like Polk and Fletcher are, then it doesn't really matter that they're short. Polk's problem isn't his height, it's that he's totally lost confidence in his jumper. Fletcher is so confident in his ability to score that becoming gun-shy simply isn't an option. He scored 50 in a game -- as a sophomore. And he's not just a scorer either. I believe he led all underclassmen points at the 2005 ABCD camp in assists.

billiken_roy Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 i checked my most recent issue of basketball times and the player ratings for the abcd camp, the nike camp and the adias camp. i did not see brock ranked at any of the three. pullen though was ranked 14th best player at the nike camp. the same camp you said that leon powell was at and he wasnt ranked either. you constantly throw out player rankings and stars etc. now when a player that is obviously higher rated is presented to you you prefer that the billikens recruit the player that isnt ranked. you need to be consistent.

VTIME Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Two things you. First, post the link to the rankings Second, 6'7 athletic forwards are more valuable than 6'0 guards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluecrewfinance Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 thanks, 3 star...I just wonder sometimes; you never know how far off someone's actual high is from their listed height... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
