I’m not very confident in Och’s NBA prospects. Definitely going to make a bunch of money overseas if he wants that.

I don't think either of his two possible choices (stay or go) would be obviously incorrect.

Agreed. I totally get wanting to get paid. I don't think another year at KU is going to increase his NBA chances unless he goes completely bonkers (like 1st Team AA, NPY candidate and 45%+ from 3). I do think he could have a great year at KU and make a run at a National Championship. Obviously that would be an amazing life experience.

But, again, money talks. I get it.

I can see a path but would not put money on it. But, there's a path, so would bet if it was great long shot odds.

Sorta wild that, in any given draft year, there are ~20 eventual rotation players.

Och vs. Grimes, ESPN2.

well, we know who is in better shape

I didn’t realize Grimey only averaged two assists a game.

I thought he was billed as some total package combo guard (even by the man himSelf!), but he really doesn’t create for others any better than Och

He stands at the 3pt line and shuffles around. He cant dribble or pass and his shot isnt that great. Houston didnt turn him into something we didnt see.

I wonder what Grimey’s diet and general discipline is like.

His relatively doughy physique, combined with his acne, makes me wonder if he’s been hanging too much at the underground with Sherron…

Yea.

Not to mention taking a step down with the general level of competition

These games are a little frustrating to watch. Just guys betting the ball and putting their heads down trying to get a foul call.

And Scott Drew, what a goober.

Yes, it's the NBA without the PnR.


Och with an And-1 dunk.

League him.

Grimes so smooth.

Grimes stroke looks good but he still doesn't look athletic. That will be an issue on defense.

Och has been good on D. Hasn't had much of a chance to attack--could also pin some of that on him.

Yeah, Och has never been one to get the ball and just instinctively go downhill with it.

Och's team has basically been whoever is lucky enough to get the ball passed to them when it crosses half court, they are going to the rack and we get a foul or turnover.
