[QUOTE="upstater, post: 2094860, member: 153"] NO, and NO. As I said, I know nothing about sports, other than knowing human nature. These are not professionals. Sometimes, it just suddenly clicks for a player, and they become very different. We saw this with Calhoun many many times. Hilton Armstrong, Gavin Edwards, saw it with Niels Giffey too. Happens all the time. In the 15 games prior to busting up his hand (games from November through January), Deandre averaged 16 points a game. This is AFTER the early scrub part of the schedule, and begins with the BC game through the Temple game (last game in January). He had a rough February because of his injury. He frequently played less than 20 minutes. The same guy for 3 years, eh? First, Calhoun had Daniels in his freshman year. Then, we saw an inconsistent quiet kid under Ollie in Ollie's first year, and that team overachieved. Then we saw a lot of development for Daniels in his 2nd year under Ollie. We saw a monster of a player in the last 10 games of the season, all in March. He hit a rough 9 game stretch in Feb., that coincided with his injury. "Are you going to tell me that because of those 6 games Kevin Ollie was responsible for finally having taught him how to properly play the game of basketball? [B] Clearly not because he got drafted and never even saw the court."[/B] What does this even mean? That a kid who doesn't make the NBA doesn't know how to play basketball properly? [/QUOTE]
