I Think There's Something That Needs to Be Said

Seems to be very smart and have a solid work ethic to get better. Actually looks like a basketball player ( as does Morgan) on the court vs just a pure athlete.

You could really tell that he was bothering Zak Irvins game last nite while guarding him. Or at least I could during the 1st half. Love the kids length and athleticism! Also, I really like what Morgan brings as well. I probably like this kid more than most.

Before the 1st TV TO I was thinking oh shit, the old Indiana defense is back. After that CTC TO we checked in a lil better on that end of the floor

That play with Juwan and Yogi really showcases the potential of JM. Great catch, mobility, and finish. Very solid on defense fundamentally and always hustles. Athleticism doesn't jump off the screen but he will be a solid player for IU and potentially an excellent player, as a face up type talent.

OG reminds me of an NBA superstar.....


currently in the MVP race.....

and no it's not curry.

OG just does all the right things. I hope Troy enjoys playing another year while OG signs a contract this summer (kidding, but who knows at this point [emoji23])

Kawai Leonard?

I think you meant to say 3 summers after this one.

Who? I've been trying to think of it and it's killing me. Kawhi?

 

yes Kawhi.

 

Now i'm not saying OG is better or going to be better than Kawhi, but their games are very similar imo. 

 

They also always share the same facial expression at all times during the games lol

Do yourself a favor and look at pictures of him 9-12 months ago and look at him now.   College kids do use the weight room and strength coaches, you know.  Kind of a new thing, but surely you've heard about it.  He wasn't ready to play big minutes when he got to campus and he wasn't ready at the start of the season.   Which is why he didn't.  He played 3 minutes here, 6 minutes there, 4 minutes there..  If he would have been ready, Crean would have yelled at you up on that mountain top, thanking you for seeing what he obviously couldn't.  

 

What "haters," by the way?  I don't recall any "hate."   I recall lots of people comparing him to this player or that player, and a few comments (including mine) which said let him develop; and the folks in the know said he had a college ready lower body but not yet a college ready upper body, and that was absolutely accurate at the time.   So things evolve, he develops more and more; and all of a sudden, you're a soothsayer.  Congratulations.  But where were you in November?   It's pretty easy to say "See!  I told you so!" 9 months after the fact.  I'll even help you with the pictures.  You can tell me what you notice.

 

 

 

I don't have to look at anything! He is who I thought he was!  The weight room is a given ability is not! This is the last time I feed your ego! Blow it at someone else.
