Well that's a slap in the face to Blakeney who I'm sure has NBA aspirations as well

This will be a fun thread to pull up at year-end since both sides are making specific predictions. Some hear are saying no way he will be drafted in the lottery/first round in June. Me and other saying no way he doesn't if he chooses.

Blakeney is actually the one that worries me tonight. I could very well see Wojo going to a zone against LSU. Our man defense isn't cutting it and LSU will be in an unfamiliar arena for the first time, so the shooting angles will change. Force them to make threes, which is one of Blakeney's specialties. If we do go zone, he's the one that could really punish us.

I actually agree. Personally I'd prefer to take on Hornsby (thank god he's out those two would've been too much) than Blakeney. Shocked at how proficient he's been on offense and there's been like no coverage about it.

Yeah, amazing that a kid averaging 19.3 ppg/5.3 rpg while shooting over 47% beyond the arc is being ignored. That's what happens when you play next to Ben Simmons, I guess.

He isn't being ignored. This is what the tweet said:

"Nearly 50 NBA scouts will be at Barclays Center today/tom for Ben Simmons, Henry Ellenson and more"

In other works, Hornsby is the Professor and/or Mary Ann of the prospects.

That's just the way it is....

I see what you did there. That was pretty good.

Just curious....do you think the LSU board has a 12-page thread titled "Simmons: One and Done or not?"?

"Ellenson is Top 10," one NBA scout said. "Scores inside and out, rebounds, young, big and improving."

Clearly that NBA scout doesn't realize that his rebounds aren't difficult enough.

I'm glad this was bumped. Because if there is one subject that hasn't been discussed enough on Scoop, this is it.

It's in its own thread and has an updated article. You don't have to read it if you don't want.

I know you keep saying this and there was a point in time at the beginning of the season and during his recruiting process when you were asbolutely correct but do not underestimate how close he is with his family, just sayin'
