the only thing that scares me is he doesn't have much of an offensive game right now...he's not really strong enough to post up in the pros and he doesn't shoot great from mid-range and outside..he has awesome ball handling and athleticism but it is gonna be hard to drive to the hoop if teams...
white lightning- while i am a huge hansbrough fan and he is one of my favorite college playes, a lot of what you said about him was wrong. he didn't win acc player of the year he was freshman of the year and reddick was player of the year? you forgot jj reddick?! also, he was certainly not the...
i really dont understand how people can say with a straight facethat hansbrough isn't athletic: he is CLEARLY very fast running the court and i have seen a video of him dunkin from a step inside the freethrow line so clearly he can jump too
honestly, ive found that the actual in game announcers in the tourney have so far been fair. mcroberts AND pocius wer e both being talked about as great athletes during the duke game for example.
i play soccer in college and i can say that at my school right now and at my old highschool the soccer players are/were just as fast if not faster than the football players.
6'4'' isnt bad at all either..a kid from my old highschool (who is white of course)does like 6'8'' or 6'9'' i believe and hes qualified for nationals...hes like 6'1'' or so id say in case ur wondering
messed up
look at this pathetic piece on how whites can't play center in the nba.
heres the comment i left him:
Hey Bill,
Why is it that you love to disparage white players in your articles so much? I first noticed it when after the Pats beat the Chargers you questioned which slow...
i know gallup will only be either a sophomore or a rs freshman so i don't know how good his chances are....an aside on barry: i used to play hockey against that kid when we were both like 13 and he was an absolute animal. one of the fastest kids out there (along with myself haha) and he was just...
welker had like 4.6 speed coming out of college i believe ( i checked his draft profile a while back) but if i remember correctly he had AWESOME agility drills and this can be seen in his quickness on the field. as such he is in some ways more of a possession guy than a deep threat but he is...
4.52 was the official i believe..leonard has been getting some love lately from mainstream media though which is awesome to hear (although he still isn't getting enough)
oh i didnt get the impression he was saying blacks actually have a bigger GENETIC curve, i thought he was saying there curve is bigger because of the confidence thing, similar to how boys do better than girls in math because they attribute their succes to talent and failure to lack of hard work...
this is touched on a bit by the article iposted in media racism and stereotyping sincei didnt know where to put it. the guy points out that stupid test where some scientist compared muscle samples from kenyan runners and some country in europe's runners and found that kenya's runners had more...
most of those are true although im pretty sure i read somwhere that boldin was hurt at the combine and later ran like a 4.5 at his proday..regardless, bennett has comparable speed to all of those guys. besides speed isn't really the main thing in having a large avg. per catch unless you're truly...
i think leonard should be ahead of everyone except peterson and lynch but only because lynch did have great production in college and if i were a coach i would pay attention to that as well. leonard IS however more talented than lynch and i would put him right up there with peterson in terms of...
actually the pats have 2 firsts so they could concievably get 3 of poz, weddle, leonard, gonzo, wendling or sabby in the first 2 rounds then go for another lb like robison in the 3rd or 4th...could be an awesome draft for them
i think rangy speed actually just means he takes long strides and that pretty fly for a white guy was a joke meant to jab at people who think whites cant play...thought it was a pretty unbiased article actually
here
came across this a while back and thought the guy made a lot of interesting points. the article title is misleading as is the beginning because he goes on to refute some of the points he brings up early so keep reading when it seems he might be a proponent of black athletic...
