The 2019 recruiting class is pretty meh and the 2020 draft class will probably be one of the weaker classes in recent memory, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beekay414 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Ja Morant is the best player in this class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's only one of three players over the last 5 years to average 5+ TO per game. It's alarming because he has played very poor defenses the entire season, how many is he going to average at the next level? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
resilient part 2 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 OK never watched J Morant for a single game, but does he have enough "game" outside of his freakish athleticisms?? Can he do it all???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I watch him it seems like he sleeps walks to 23 and 11 barely even trying. I think it's kinda like Simmons but the opposite. He might get bored because his team is way better than most of the teams he plays and he just tries stuff because it isn't really going to hurt his team.

WTH is up with that. Can that man make a freakin outside shot??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost every player that gets drafted needs to be a little better shooter, including Ja. And is shooting 81% from the ft line, which indicates he can become a better shooter.

He might get bored because his team is way better than most of the teams he plays and he just tries stuff because it isn't really going to hurt his team. On the season the defenses he has faced have ranked (according to Kenpom): #201, #233, #78, #219, #221, #132, #129, #74, #46, #273, #242, #345, #271, #302, #322 & two D2 schools that aren't ranked in these ratings. His numbers are impressive but they're definitely inflated and the fact that he turns it over so much against the absolute worst defenses in college basketball is somewhat concerning.

He just doesn't really have to guard anyone in the OVC lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
