New Knox video I found....

90% of the time, it's one or the other. If a player focuses on defense, he's going to have lapses on offense. I love that we are more of a defensive minded team.. but it's nice to have a guy like Knox every year, who can score all over the floor.
Is anyone playing d in that video?
Agree. This video of a pick up game with a 40 year old bald guy and a bunch of unknowns should put that idea to bed.
I forgot. Knox is the best player ever and he could play 1 - 5 being an all star at each spot. That better?
No, not really. But it doesn't take away from your serious assessment of his defensive skills based off a non-competitive pick up game where not one person is playing defense.
Dwayne Bacon, was he the one in the red shorts? Some one tell me about him. Where did he come from, where is he going? I just have not heard of him but he can play basketball.
He's just not quick enough to guard a shooting guard at this level. This isn't just from observing the video.
Possibly. I will wait till he gets on campus, starts going through college workouts, and Cal gets in his ear, to decide. But you very well may be right. But the positive thing is, he won't really have to guard a 2, unless he gets switched on to them. We have plenty of capable bodies that can guard the 2.
I didn't see any D, but who cares in that type of game. KN is long. He isn't 6'7", he has long arms and should be a great offensive weapon next year. The D? Cal teaches D. Monk and Fox got toasted trying to defend for 2/3 of the year.
At first glance all I saw was Kevin and Bacon. Glad I'm not the only one that saw that.
This is Rafters. Are you surprised?Are we seriously deciding he can't play defense from what looks like a fun pickup game from which I'm sure defense wasn't a concern.
I know right. It is more sad then funny that people would make a judgement like that. Cal wants him as a 2g and sf then so do I.Are we seriously deciding he can't play defense from what looks like a fun pickup game from which I'm sure defense wasn't a concern.
If this video proves that Knox can't defend 2s even remotely then there's another video showing Quade will be one of the best 3 point shooters in the country so we're good.
