Totally planned. Waters was so confused.

Stupid like a fox.

[pdub]

But really did he think that he had to switch? What the hell was that?

a bullet dodged

Yea.
Dude hit four guarded threes in 50 seconds in his game prior and missed a completely wide open one.

Waters isn't good when given time to think. Can't stand that guy since his choke takedown on, I forget, either BIFM or JJ

[CrimsonNBlue]

It was a great effort game but a pretty bad mental game. The miscommunication at the end fit right into it. 2 guys trying really hard but not talking.

Interesting.
But if Quentin told Chai to rotate, i'd think that Quentin would have switched too.
Got pretty fortunate the best 3 point shooter in the B12 missed that.

He did have that WTF look on his face

That's just his normal look.

Och was thinking about throwing his name in the NBA Draft...

Just another example about the NBA Draft entry rules changing and why it means so many more players will be declaring for the draft - even just to get info. Like Dotson.

So from now on, pretty much every year we're going to have our entire team declare for the draft, and then we'll have 70-80% of our guys not get drafted and return?

Looks like it. Kinda stupid not to do it, unless you can't afford to pay an agent. Everyone should do it.

I think it's great for the players that they are now allowed to do this.

with so many more bodies, i gotta think the evaluations won’t be as thorough, and the feedback isn’t going to be as good, as they might have been otherwise

Only so many get invited to the stuff anyway, so the process may not be very long for guys outside the top 80ish or so prospects....which will hopefully ease some of the recruiting/roster concerns for college staffs.

I'm all for these changing rules, and I would like to see the suggested one and done rule changes implemented. However, it could potentially be bad for someone like Joel Embiid. I don't think he knew how good he was before he entered KU, or maybe he just progressed really fast. Either way, forcing a guy like that to stay multiple years would not be fair for him. Realistically, we're not going to see many cases like that. Zion knew he was NBA ready before he even considered Duke.

See, e.g., Lagerald Vick

You can't force kids to stay in school. The NBA rule called the one and done rule may be changed but there will still be players that only play for one year.

Did I miss the rule change where they changed it from you can only withdraw once? Example being Dotson declares this year, comes back, and declares again next year. The 2nd time takes away your college eligibility, no?

It's stupid in that sense. Why declare to get feedback if you know 99.9999% you're coming back anyway? Put you in a tough spot the 2nd time you declare if something were to happen (Rush).
