They were not lottery picks going through the draft process. In fact they were fringe first rounders at best.
Probably the front runner for NPOY if he returns. At least in the top 5 “watch list” pre season
Yeah, I'll accept your argument. I hope the Sheppards will as well. I was referring to the risk of injury. It's definitely not likely, no doubt, but it's possible. Although, some who are truly worried about injuries when returning to school have taken out an insurance policy as a safeguard of sorts.
Cal said last night he gives Shep a little leeway with his defense because he does many other thing well. So defense getting better would be a big deal in the pro's.
Bluster ... sounds like all you can say at this point is to tell us what "you" would do. Got it.
... more bluster? Will you also come back to say that I was correct? I'm not the only one, you know, that thinks there's a chance he returns for year two. You're looking at only the money angle ... which is so predictable, but there could be many other factors to consider. You don't know and I don't know what he will decide. At least we know what decision "you" would make and that's all we know. So, to continue with foolish bluster is foolish. Wouldn't you agree?
Why is it dumb, if it very well could INCREASE his total career earnings?
I’m curious, does anyone here have the stat: How many Top 5 NBA Draft picks were not starters?
Ruin what vibe? Stop being brainless and look at the facts… he’s now projected 5th in the draft. There is zero chance he would turn down that.
Andrew was projected top 10. Aaron was projected top 20.
Don’t worry lots of people, in this thread alone, think these things are irrelevant 😂
Excellent post. I believe Reed will listen to his parents rather than Cal if Cal is pushing him to go pro. For some reason, my gut is telling me that the fact that Reed is so much better than most including Cal, thought, that Cal didn't seem to like that his "plan" for his 5 stars got a little off balance. I'm not usually a conspiracy theorist, but could that be why Cal insists DJ starts? That he needs him to be drafted high? I wonder if Cal is upset that Reed is so much higher in the mock drafts than DJ or Justin. See, this is what happens when I let my mind wander in the middle of the night.🤣🤣
Ulis made the correct decision.
Damn that game!!!57-1. We have never won a blue/white game.....
“Huge risk”? How many players have had an injury that significantly affected their playing in the NBA? Very few. Bowie, Oden ( or was his after got there), uhhh Gathers.
If reed doesn’t enter the draft he won’t know if he’s 5 or 25. And that’s the route I expect him to take. You guys think projections mean anything haven’t paid attention to the many who were sold a bill of goods only to fall. Reed very easily could be that guy. Nike, clutch, others they have a tremendous impact on who is drafted and when. And yea next year is just as weak. If Shepard is top 5 now he will be top 5 next year. You guys say tha every year “it’s a weak draft” they’re all weak now since reclassifies.
