Guys you thought would make it to the league

I feel like there are so many guys that killed it in college, but just couldn't adjust to the pros.

Shame, but it was still fun as hell watching them.

Made a post a while back about my boy who is working on this doc... Supposed to come out real soon although its supposed to have already been out. I think they're dealing with technicalities now so look out for this...

Better shooter than JJ but got no love. If Salim played on the east coast, people would talk about him as the greatest shooter ever. His numbers were INSANE.

Scottie shoulda left after he beat Pitt, but seeing Kyle Lowry + Foye and Cunningham to an extent get their shot in the L takes a bit of sting off,
Those teams when they ran basically 3-4 guards at a time and let it rain 3's was amazing.

Kinda funny you posted both of these lefty guards who were drafted by the Hawks. I watched both of them up close in their tenures with Atlanta. Salim could've stuck with the squad, but Mr. Potato Head just didn't give him an opportunity to showcase his skills. As good as his jumper is he should be in the league right now.

Acie Law's game just didn't translate to the NBA and work well with the Hawks, he wasn't necessarily a true point so he wasn't much of an option.

All of these players got drafted, but none have really impacted the league at all. Even Jordan Hill has had more of an impact than any of these guys. And to the dude who posted about the Illinois/Ariz game from 2005, that was the most emotional I've ever been in my life over a basketball game

We just havent been the same ever since
