Chris007 Posted March 30, 2023 Author Posted March 30, 2023 Bates to Michigan seems to have some legs to it. Maybe they are willing to pay to have his g/f and child move to Ann Arbor but I really doubt they are paying him his asking price. I do know he's been friends with the Howards since his IMG days Quote

Would also prefer he goes out of conference, but if he does go to Michigan I'm isolating on him every trip down. Get him switched onto XJ or another scoring guard/wing we have coming in and Go To Work! taco corp, Chris007, hoosierbgh and 1 other 4 Quote

Or if they weren't available U of KC (D1, Summit League) - they would kill for a player of his stature. If that happens I would be much more of a fan. 16 minutes ago, Chris007 said: Bates to Michigan seems to have some legs to it.

Golfman25 Posted March 30, 2023 Posted March 30, 2023 4 hours ago, Honkyman said: The problem with Leal is that he is essentially Galloway without Galloway's athleticism or ability to attack the rim. Plus, Leal has not turned into the 3-point shooter some thought he was. I agree that he is "smart, moves the ball quickly on offense, hustles." When Galloway improved his perimeter shooting it almost guaranteed Leal would be relegated to the end of the bench. He needs to go live with Hulls this off season and become that can't miss sharp shooter who gets you back into games with 2-3 consecutive 3s and then comes out. NVFalcons1990 and CSP 1 1 Quote

Pretty sure that's a violation on many levels . But maybe wrong Quote

I do know he's been friends with the Howards since his IMG days just curious.... Do we know what his asking price is? I mean, I love the kid, he just didn't work out here at IU, but man..... You've got to have some "meat on the bones", something solid to claim you worth to be asking for high dollars. Am I wrong? Quote

You can argue Tamar didn't belong on the floor at all towards the end of the season. Leal could have missed every shot he threw up too. Nah, even a blind squirrel can find a nut. CSP 1 Quote
CSP Posted March 30, 2023 Posted March 30, 2023 1 hour ago, Loaded Chicken Sandwich said: Well that's you. He was horrid to end the season. And I don't think it had anything to do with respecting his shooting, they knew he sure as hell wasn't going to drive the ball at any point. Offensively we played 4 on 5 with him on the floor. Kid has loads of potential, but he wasn't reaching anywhere near it at IU. No we didn't. We played 4 on 4. And if Kopp was in, it was 3 on 3. Quote

That'd be a first for Leal. He wasn't a sharpshooter even in HS. Hope so, though. Quote

Ummmm.....so if Bates and Kopp were in, the other team lost two defenders? Because if we played three on three offense and TJD and JHS were two of the three, that's a genius idea.

We didn't play offense 4 on 5 when Bates was on the court, was my point. But... this is all in the context that he wanted Leal in instead of Bates. I had no interest in that. Maybe if XJ had been healthy? Quote

Easier said than done. Great shooters are great because of both talent and relentless work. Hard work would make Leal a better shooter. I imagine he has worked hard on his shot. Quote

He's not that bad. Smart kid, moves the ball quickly on offense, hustles and can shoot. He's going to play a role eventually. He will be the 13th man and will only play in blow outs MikeRoberts and FortWayneHoosier 1 1 Quote
