3rds on him as my #1 Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app

Pisses me off too. Very simple statement but pretty much sums the injury plague this team has this year. Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app

I agree....I think. I would give AB more consideration than Bell due to a position of need but I'm not sure I'd give up what it will likely take to get him. Now if he goes for a 5th Rd pick or something crazy then maybe?????? Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app

I admit I haven't seen much of Illinois this year but based off of what I saw last year and the very limited amount this year I feel that their defensive strategy is not a good matchup for IU. The tight ball pressure against guys that are shaky with the ball. Maybe I'm wrong but I think this will yet again be a tight game. Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app

I've never heard that reference before. Pretty good man. Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app

Doesn't Romeo have a rather substantial thread already? Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app

IU - 68 Illinois - 65 Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app

Julio Jones, Davante Adams, Antonio Brown, JuJu Smith-Scheuster, Michael Thomas, DeAndre Hopkins, A.J. Green, Keenan Allen, Odell Beckham and Mike Evans. That's leaving guys like Stefan Diggs, Cooper Kupp, Alshon Jeffrey and Amari Cooper off the list even though I believe they are more legitimate #1's. I could also make the argument that Hilton is regarded as high as he is due to sheer volume because there is no #2 or #1(imo). He also gets a lot of consideration because he puts up a few big number games every year but he also puts up duds as well. Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app

I agree. This season has actually been a pleasant surprise. There's good development going on, good off season moves/draft, Luck seemingly back to elite status, better coaching etc. There seems to be good leadership for the first time in a long time. I think next season they need to get a true #2 or #1 WR. I like Hilton but just not sure he's a true #1 and wouldn't be much better as the 2nd option. Overall pleased with the direction of this team.

I wasn't aware that the efficiency #'s got corrected for opponent strength. My bad. Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app

Again he's not using Ken Pom's rankings. He's using the 2 statistical categories that measure efficiency on Off and Def. Those numbers are based off of a per 100 possessions aren't they? If so then your opponent is irrelevant. I think that's why the mid major numbers don't hold up because they are coming against weaker competition. Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app

He's not using his rankings. He's using AdjO and AdjD. I think that playing 6 tourney teams would likely hurt your numbers in those 2 categories as opposed to helping them. Maybe I'm wrong on how it works but I believe that to be the case. Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app

Want to see under 10 turnovers and shoot 70%+ from the line. Do these things in a win and I'll be happy. Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app

Hot button topic. I'll just say I also tend to think it's a little over the top. Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app

So there are 3 QB's having a better year in the AFC? Mahomes and.........? And Leonard being snubbed is just absolutely laughable. Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app

I have always thought this small change made sense. I'd add that swapping Dallas with Carolina would also make sense. Definitely understand where people would be up in arms moving Dallas but geographically it makes sense. Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app

Don't think he meant this year's team. Think he was talking in general we like watching a team that is underrated. Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app

The reason I mentioned was Crean Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app

It's sad. I actually thought of that today. Zeller, Watford, Oladipo, Hulls and Yogi with Sheehey as the 6th man.....no reason that team didn't make it to the Final 4. Well except 1 reason. SMH Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app

Would imagine he'd be on pace to get up there in assists as well. Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app

He really was just about their only option for a couple of years. So he's on there because of volume? A lot of people ripped on him (myself included) but I always wondered what he may have been on a team with talent. He actually played pretty well on the 11-12 team if I recall correctly.

True about the 90's. That's also when the 3 pt shot started being utilized more. Unfortunately for some of the guys on the list they didn't have that opportunity although they would've have lit it up from there if it were an option. Sent from my Pixel XL using BtownBanners mobile app
