No room for intelligent takes on the topic in this thread buddy, we’re on to Ross v Furphy now

It’s was coming - picturing 611 behind the podium saying you better mock me now, because Ross is coming.

 

[HW611]

I’m ready to take wagers that Ross will receive more minutes than Furphy.

If yall are actually serious about this take and not just saying it for fun.

I’m not a betting man, and don’t necessarily endorse that prediction, but I support your support of Ross. I think the sky’s the limit for him, and I don’t believe his prior minutes at UConn constitute a sample size sufficient for harsh criticism.

You gonna release your Venmo? You may get lots of takers that will hold you to it.

Weren’t you taking wagers on Ross starting right after he announced he was coming back?

That's a tough bet man. No one knows the answer to that, maybe not even Hurley.

 

[Inyatkin]

Not sure if Ross will start this year (I’m not ruling it out),

You're not? You probably should

 

[thekollieman]

You're not? You probably should

It honestly would not surprise me if he started in some nonzero number of games this season. Not saying he’ll be a bonafide starter, just that he might appear in a starting lineup at some point. No idea if this is the perspective HW611 was taking or not.

No, I put the thought out there but waited to see how the roster would unfold before making anything official.

I’m fully ready to take that though for anyone who actually believes Ross is that bad and Furphy is a shoe in for playing time. But I’m not sure if people are actually serious or if they’re saying this as a bit.

Does anyone think even as a college junior Ross would drop 24 on the U19 USA team? Doubt it.

If Ross was one of the few D1 players on his team I don’t see why not.

The points have to come from somewhere.

Nuni Omet scored 24 for South Sudan against team USA in the Olympics. Does that make him an NBA player? How about the guy for Brazil who scored 30?

The criticism, downplaying, and writing off he receives is disappointing. I hope he doesn’t have family who reads this board.
