Where should Murray be ranked amongst the incoming freshmen?

[jrpross]

I don't know what I like best about this idiot- his stupid handle, his awful basketball IQ, his garbage posts or the fact his posts run 1,000 words a pop.

You have to be a real loser to get your jollies off trying to annoy people on the internet.

You're terrible and now on ignore.

I've just never seen a troll work so hard to write posts overly long that nobody is going to read.

I'm not sure I'd put anyone ahead of his save perhaps Ben Simmons.

Just a couple weeks ago people were laughing at my statement that Murray will be the greatest guard that Calipari has ever coached...Wall and Rose just behind. He has every tool. The jumper being the difference. Not laughing any more. Kid is legit.

No way Diallo should even be considered better than Murray.

Diallo's not even the 2nd or 3rd best big in the class IMO. I'd take Zimmerman over him in a heart beat. Diallo isn't skilled offensively. He's a high energy guy who'll make his impact on defense, rebounding and he'll score on effort plays and offensive rebounds. I wanted him but I think the KU fans are really overrating him. One of em said he was as good as Skal lol.

Well, yes, except that nearly every, single, one of Diallo's per-minute stats has been way, way, WAY better than Murray's; Murray's had to play twice as many minutes, and put up way more FG attempts, just to equal Diallo's recent, multiple-MVP stats (i.e., Diallo's been about twice as effective).

To earn 'Hoops Summit' MVP, Murray had to play a whole lot of minutes and put up a lot of attempts.

I suspect the Pan-Am 'Murray-hype' fad should simmer-down by February.

Sure, it'd be nice if Murray were a very special player. He can be solid, but who else on the Canadian roster could have replaced him? Their team's mediocrity made him look good. (Hey, at least he was much better than Team USA's Trimble, who had absolutely NO business being out there. The fact that Trimble beat-out VanVleet is just beyond insane. VanVleet's better at everything.)

You can't say Murray's a ball hog, because Team Canada didn't have many options, but, from what I saw, I suspect Murray will have trouble sharing the rock at UK, and that's not good when you consider his stats show he isn't that efficient.

Our fans can't seem to see anything except what they want to ("head in the clouds").

If you were to look at Murray's stats, per minute, versus, say, KU's Frank Mason in the recent World University Games ...(which was a more loaded/talented/deeper tournament [with no home-court advantage]) (and anyone who thinks the elite Pan-Am teams were more athletic or skilled than the elite 'World Uni. Games' teams is simply out of their minds -- the top-5 WUG teams would've all beaten the top Pan-Am teams -- soundly)... or, if you were to disregard stats and simply use "the eye test", there's absolutely no doubt Murray is 'a cut below' athletically and efficiency-wise, not to mention experience-wise. (Some recruiting services ranked him a 4-star until be made his college choice.)

Now, am I glad he'll be a freshman on our team? Yes, sure, but there's no way in HELL I'm buying all this unsupported and over-blown draft hype. LoL. Yes, he did a nice job in the Pan-Am games. Just leave it at that, folks, until he consistently plays elite and athletic talent, performs much more efficiently and can share the damn ball. His assist numbers aren't very good because a player who has the ball as much as he did will surely get some assists along the way (as a side-effect).

Go Cats!

Let the rebel of the board put you in place dude. Your a dumbass. Go back to your gay Kansas board and talk about how awesome Diallo is. Rock chalk gayhawk right??? If you had any eye for talent whatsoever you'd know that Murray is an elite talent and that Diallo is the one getting over hyped. Diallo is just a high energy guy who isn't too skilled offensively. He'll make his money off defense, rebounding, and he'll score primarily off energy plays and off offensive rebounds. We are gonna destroy you losers just like we did last year when we broke it off in you. I know you gotta be a KU fan dude. Aside from Louisville fans only people from Kansas are that dumb.

He's one of those obsessive compulsive trolls.
