[youngthundercat]

Experimental purposes relax.

i'm sorry Cali dudes, but Romeo is ****ing trash

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

The last two classes have blessed. This one just don't compare

i'm sorry Cali dudes, but Romeo is ****ing trash

Gonna try not to put too much into a freshman having the worst game of his 7 game season on the road at Duke. I haven't watched him other than this, but it does look like he had solid games against Marquette and Arkansas.

He's on my **** list. Outside of Kevin Porter Jr, Zion, and Garland i'm not a fan of this class.

 

[B Sox]

Just realized dudes in this class were born in 2000

I don’t see it in Nassir Little or Grimes. At least not yet

 

[firstclass]

Need Cam in CLE or ATL

 

[DCAllAfrican]

I remember going to see Chino Hills vs Mater Dei at the Galen center. Bagley had played the game before. Went to see Lamelo, and Bol was by far and away the best prospect on display that day. I was blown away.

Still not set on how good he'll be as a pro though.

Atmosphere there must have been amazing

 

[B Sox]

Romeo Langford going to be a great Pelican.

 

[P C H]

Atmosphere there must have been amazing

Understatement. Complete sell out. And it was the first time where I really felt the Lamelo Ball phenomenon. He was a sophomore, and essentially sold out the Galen center. Had 10 year olds crying out "Lamelo! Lamelo! Sign this" it was wild. He truly is a superstar of a kid.

 

[ballinsam23]

He's a solid player and I like him, but if Keldon Johnson is projected to go 7 you know its a weak *** draft.

 

[kn0wledgeable]

Hot take...

Zion = Larry Johnson

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Hot take...

Zion = Larry Johnson

Not a hot take at all.

More of. Mixture of both generations of LJ though

 

[Xennial]

LJ wasn't anywhere near 285 lbs

 

[B Sox]

De'Andre Hunter is going to be Siakam 2.0.

 

[addict4sneakers]

Yeah Grimes ain’t it.

 

[T0INE]

In.

 

[B Sox]

Going to be a very good PF in the league assuming he can extend range to 3. He just does his job.
