Rosy was a big time shooter. He needed some room, but big range for the ‘70’s. He changed a lot of games by hitting some bombs.

MU has had some snipers Goose.  I'm hoping we can increase our overall 3pt percentage and believe we can.

It's a thing of beauty when that thing drops straight down and tickles the twine.  I also look at it a little bit like a show-stopping hammer flush aesthetically.  That said, is that much of an increase in his arc making him a better shooter? Or potentially a better shooter at the NBA level?  It seems to me hitting that with consistency might be more difficult?

Great guy also. Man, he would have killed it if there was a 3 point line back then.

I'm completely lost as to why he has struggled so much the last 5 games but we need the young man to figure it out Herman.

The kiss the sky 3 was worse than whatever he was doing his freshman year.

Kam's non-sky-kissing J was hitting at a .443 clip through the first 11 games. That's a far better percentage than when his J was kissing the sky as a sophomore.

So the-first-11-games J is what we need from him. Not sure if the necessary adjustments would be physical or psychological.

Uncle,  that would make sense.  You hearing anything on kolek on the injury front as well?  He doesn’t seem to have the same energy on the court either. Injuries can suck the life out of players.

I would proffer that Tyler’s case has more to do with frustration? He is obviously being closely guarded while he is getting the ball to his teammates in good scoring position, but they are missing those open shots created by a Tyler.

I’m not sure what Kolek’s deal is.  Kam has been playing hurt since UCLA

Thanks. Appreciate the information. 

There are times he has had an irritated look on his face during a clock stoppage.  I thought maybe he was irritated with a player on the other team for a physical play several times.  Maybe that has been an I’m in pain look more than anything.

Can't remember which game it was, but in one of them Kam limped off the court in the first minute. Later came back and played fine IIRC, but I've wondered since then if he's battling some kind of residual injury.

I was at the game today. I sat next to an NBA scout who said he was there to watch Tyler. In fact near the end of the game I asked if he was headed back home. He said he was having dinner with Tyler and his family. But he was very impressed with Kam. Said he's f'n good. Very nice guy asked about Stevie too.

He was probably there to see Oso 😂

One big run to the FF and methinks they will all head to the Association.

One 1st rounder (Oso) and two 2nd rounders, with one possibly going undrafted and getting immediately signed as a FA.

In the case above we will all be happy because of where they took us, and Shaka will have a big re-loading offseason with a few highly ranked portal guys.
Best case scenario for all imo

Independent service apparently. I asked him who he "worked for" and he said proservices, or prospectives or something like that. He was in town from Miami. Has a partner in LA. He wasn't enjoying the weather.

We had a Lakers' scout by us. Was focusing on Oso vs. Dixon matchup. I wanted to get a look at his phone software as he was logging data all game.
