Tomorrow
Looks similar to the WCF schedule.
If Chalmers was so good, why wasn't he selected before? You can't ask that question about George Hill and then bring up Chalmers.
Exactly.
I wonder what the Vegas odds are for the plane being delayed on the trip to Salt Lake City.
Hill has always played above his size, his wingspan, his leaping ability, his overall body control, he has the ability to score in the paint against trees and not just pull up short and float, but take it to them and score in there face.. he obviously hasn't faced the concentration of NBA bigs and athletes hes about to face but hes played plenty of all americans, lottery picks... my biggest question is the transition of catch and shooting over some of the 6'8-6'10 shooting guards in the NBA, I am highly confident in his slashing and creation ability... hes a lights out accuracy marksman, but his greatest challenge if he goes into a small SG role he will have to adjust getting his shots.
ummm.... IUPUI is not a division 2 school, they blew out UCONN and Hill scored like 24 points in the second half... UCONN was top seed in NIT and IUPUI didn't even get selected with a better record than every team.. They also lost in a close game with marquette, and has had BIG 10 teams etc on their schedule the year before... they are NOT a D2 team.
No, smokin' smilie is a close relative of choad smilie. In fact, they belong together and choad comes first.
thx for the responses to my previous comment about hill guys.. well those responses that made sense rather..
don't get me wrong i hope hill definitely pans out.. but as stupid as it sounds.. id rather us take a chance on chalmers or CDR than hope for the success of somebody nobody has heard of.. (not literally of course.. i know hill isn't a NOBODY)
i like the argument about how parker was available to us as pick #28.. heck.. one can make the same case about manu at #56 and even kobe at #13.. u never know how these players are gonna pan out.. and i bet you.. whoever picked parker didnt think he was gonna be THIS good.. the scouts just do their jobs.. they scout talent and recommend them.. they're not always right.. sometimes they're usually more wrongs than rights.. that bein' said.. we lucked out with parker's success and pop's patience with him..
i also like the argument about if chalmers was so good.. how come he wasnt picked early.. i asked myself that question too.. what i think about that really is.. this year's draft was pretty deep when it came to talent and potential.. there were a bunch of winners even in the 2nd round.. these players do have the hype that's coming with 'em into the draft, yet they're yet to perform against nba talent on an almost daily basis.. there's almost no telling how they'd pan out.. alot of ppl thought lebron was gonna be good.. but at this rate and not this fast.. everyone also thought olowokandi was gonna be the worthwhile as the #1 pick to acompany KG and gave 2 shts about some guy named vince carter.. you just never know..
so why teams skipped on chalmers.. i dunno.. maybe they were jus trying to fill a void or that there were just too many prominent guards in this draft and chalmers just got a short end of the stick.. but ive seen his game.. i think he's got what it takes.. but theres a reason why they're scouts and im just another spurs fan
i guess that may answer my question alittle bit about why hill slipped to us also.. but i hope we're not all putting our eggs in one basket and basing our opinion about hill vs chalmers on some predraft workout.. these guys have had their basketball careers to prove themselves.. and hill's compe ion vs. chalmer's.. arent' exactly of the same caliber
Not many 6-8--6-10 sg in the NBA and the ones that are are normally very poor defenders. He has a quick release and shoots with a high arch so it wont be much of a problem.
Dude, seriously read some posts--It'll help you out. Thanks.
How long before the naysayers admit they were wrong?
It'll take more than two games. Most of the naysayers dug into the position long before there were enough facts to form a conclusion. I suspect that they'll gleefully point out when Hill makes a mistake or will post up when Chris Douglas Roberts or Mario Chalmers has a good statistical performance. Expect to see all of those for a while.
that's the thing I hate the most..
Hill could have 2 weeks of good games in a row, but when he has 1 bad one, they'll all come out..
That one was really good.
I hope he comes back with the Spurs in the future and retire as a Spurs
Gonna miss him. He could have been the chosen one.
But it's all in the game.
When is the "Kawhi Leonard Hidden Star" thread going up?
