Fits better than your mom, that's for sure. Even John Holmes had to tie a board around his ass.....
CBS moves Dillingham to #1 in their mock draft
- Thread starter Smashcat
- Start date
76ers owner held back money for Iverson after he turns I think 55. He knew AI would blow it all.
The whole "spotting the other team 8 points" is flawed logic.
IF we're going to be outscored by 8 points when DJ is in the game--then we're going to be outscored by 8 points when DJ is in the game. If DJ starts--we'll get outscored by 8 in the minutes he plays. If DJ Comes off the bench, we'll get outscored by 8.
I don't think he starts DJ and Edwards to help their NBA draft stock. You don't showcase them to help their draft stock by starting them. You do it by giving them minutes. Whether they get minutes at the start or the middle of the game--NBA scouts can watch them and decide what they think about them.
Note Reed and Rob have come off the bench most of the season. They're being talked about as top 5 picks now. The scouts don't care that DJ and Edwards are the starters. They aren't pushing them up the rankings because they start over Rob and Reed.

Is it more stupid than creating multiple accounts and spending years telling UK fans how stupid they are for being upset about losses?
You look like a fool, but you're used to that by now.
Instead of spewing the same nonsense over and over, why don’t you do some research and see how many times UK has been in this 8 points or so hole before Dillingham and Sheppard have to come save the day?
I think you’ll be surprised.
The dichotomy of people here that say future NBA players don't win college games and Cal worries too much about having NBA players, but then criticize him for not winning with the same players that you say don't win college games is astonishing.
My great granddaughter is in sixth grade. If she would have turned this in as an assignment she would be in the sixth grade again next year.
Lol, if you actually think you calling me a fool bothers me, you're more simple-minded than I thought.
Dude, you posted this to me at 1:30am on a Saturday morning. You have almost 40,000 posts on an anonymous message board about UK basketball and football. Someone could post every day of their lives and still not make that many posts.
This site is your life! It's why you're always on here. First thing in the morning, you are on here making threads with crazy, off-the-wall hypotheticals you spend your time thinking up. All throughout the day you are on here responding, and then to end your days, you're back on here again, calling people fools because you disagree with them.
This board is everything to you! I know you even consider the other anonymous posters as your "friends", "companions" and they are likely the closest thing you have to a real relationship in your life.
You also create weird lies and rumors about young men playing basketball. Like, when you created a rumor about Justin Edwards quitting the team.
You personify the terms fool, loser, pathetic, liar, beta and countless others.
No matter how hard you try on here, no matter how many times you call me or others names, no matter how many times you tell other posters "you don't get how this works" or "you aren't very good at this, are you?" It’s always you that comes out looking like the real loser who puts way too much time and emotion into an anonymous message board. You also paint a huge target on yourself of someone who is easily triggered by the words of others l, and that makes you incredibly transparent.
You do you, Saul! However, I honestly think with some self-reflection, you could be so much better. Maybe you won't need one of those mental health breaks you had to take last year!
Dilly and Sheppard because they would get put on bad teams and have to play based on draft slot for the future, not to mention their actual skills. Reeves probably could as well but he’s most likely going to a loaded team, but it could be one with a thinner bench.
No I mean CBS Mocks are never anywhere close to the actual order players are drafted.
Seems like you're utilizing a straw man argument. Name a Kentucky fan that doesn't want players that are in the caliber of John Wall, Anthony Davis, or Karl Anthony Towns. I've never seen anyone on this message board assert such a clam. The major issue has been that we don't land those players very much anymore, and the second and third tier players that we do land end up leaving after a year anyway. That's the source of frustration for Big Blue Nation.
Now we actually have a few elite freshmen, namely Sheppard and Dillingham, and what do we see? Big Blue Nation is more excited than it has been in four years. Our fans want elite players. The issue with Calipari is that he hasn't landed very many of them over the last half decade.
The Wall, Davis, Towns level players don’t come along that often though. There are non if that level in this years class. And I don't recall any the last couple of years.
What college did Wemby play at?
You think Banchero was a Davis and Wall level talent?
The thread is about the draft so I thought you were talking recent draft classes not recruiting classes.
I'm just referring to the fact the Wall, Davis, Zion, Fox, Towns types don't come around every year or every other year.
I would say Oscar was closer to that level than Banchero was.
Dillingham is every bit the college player John wall was. He's probably better tbh. He can do everything wall could do but also an elite shooter.
For whatever reason all season many fans completely understand appreciate how special Rob really is
Ehh, Rob is very good, but he isn't close to a Wall or Davis type, imo. If Rob is hot offensively, he brings a lot. If not, he can be a burden.
I’m absolutely amazed at the amount of so called “sports fans” who try to justify this ridiculous nonsense, when it has literally NEVER HAPPENED in the entire history of sports… Not CBB… SPORTS!
Cal should be fired for just having UK’s name associated with such a piece of sports history!
I didn't say Davis. We may never have another that good. But yes he's probably better than wall. The only difference is the swagger. Nostalgia is getting the better of people in this comparison.
Look at robs shooting percentage. He's always hot. If reed wasn't having a historic year, robs percentage would be the point of discussion.
Wall was like 2nd in NPOY voting. He was SEC POY, 1st team all American and 1st team all SEC. SEC Freshmen of the year. SEC tournament MVP. He was a huge favorite to be 1st pick in the draft.
Dilly is awesome, and he is definitely a better shooter, but Wall was a generational talent. Dilly isn't near that level, at least not yet.
He was also the face of the team and an entire new face of cbb. It was a different time. Dilly is just better in every facet other than dunking on people. Instead of dunking on people, he just makes insane layups
I mean, I guess if that's your opinion....but I just think you're vastly diminishing Wall. That dude was generational.
He felt that way at the time but it turned out to not be true. Fox, just a few seasons later was clearly better. Dillingham is better than wall too but not better than fox.
Rob has all of the tools but Wall was 3 in. taller and 25lbs heavier.
Wall could beat you with speed or bully you.
JW's size and strength made him a better defender than Rob.
Rob is closer to 5'11 - 6ft. Wall was a legit 6'5. Rob is terrific, but at the same points in their careers, Wall was the better player, IMO.
