Message: [QUOTE="Hunt for 7, post: 5244703, member: 12414"] Well at least I got acknowledgment on his quick release before the rest of my post was refuted. He does have what we used to call a chesty shot when I was growing up. But being 5’10” I know that quick release is more important that how high you are when you release. I think I was told when I pointed out how perfect Hawkins shot was that they were not teaching that form any more and the young great shooters where all starting to look like Curry. The thing about Curry is that you never know when he is going to shoot. Mullins appears to have some of that ability which he has probably developed because of how he shoots. I think the kid is going to kill it next year. He is much quicker than I thought he would be and one of the regulars did point out he had lateral quickness so good info. Also he dunked easily and athletically from a few good angles. Not like he jumped out of the gym but he got up quick and the ball moves like lightning in his hands, there was one where he switched hands going from right to left to throw it down and he has incredible hand quickness. I did not watch the game yesterday but I read he picked a few pockets on the defensive ends. I think we are getting a gem in this kid. Usually I turn these videos on what h for a few plays then move on. With Mullins I wanted to keep watching. Excited to see him and Ball spot up next year. Now one or true athletic bigger guards who can get to the basket, pass and they just have to shoot ok because if they can defend handle get to the basket I like our backcourt. We see every spring you need great guard play to be special in the tourney. Seems to me the time it is taking for a few other of these kids to go portaling is interesting. I expected Nowell, Singare. And was not sure about Abraham but there are at least two more players that I thought would already have made a decision. And is there any chance that someone who could test the draft do so but enter the portal at the same time. Hope that don’t happen. We are always meticulous, during this process for reasons sometimes out of our control. Hard to tell because we have been defending champs ever since this portal thing got crazy. I wonder how much interest in Luke and Kimani for HC positions is impacting the work. Saw a few MD fans wanted Luke as their head coach but they went with Williams from A&M/Marquette. I found that move a bit surprising. Can’t wait for the first new portal decision coming in is dropped. But after watching Mullins play tough not to get excited with him and Ball in the backcourt together. [/QUOTE]
