Message: [QUOTE="EBonz30, post: 4732264, member: 6370"] I don’t hate Bill Self, I don’t hate any college coaches, hard to hate someone I never met, but I guess your point is some people on this board hate him & it blinds their analysis? I believe he has a very strong offensive system & he does very well in developing bigs- especially for the college game. He has taken a number of bigs who are not the most talented, tallest, athletic & makes them very capable & good to great college players ala Nick Collison, Thomas Robinson, Morris Twins, Perry Ellis, Cole Aldrich, Udoka Azubuike, Dedric Lawson, Wayne Simien- very good with undersize bigs & making very good college players & a lot of the time lottery picks- who besides the Morris twins all have been zeroes in the NBA- & even the Morris twins play the wing a lot in the league. Embiid obviously a top talent but only played one year- wonder how he would developed with more time. Even the player you mentioned in K.J. Adams had a very nice year at only 6 foot 7- can see him having another strong year this year. I believe that is Self’s greatest strength, with that said per my message from earlier I don’t believe he is a great in game coach. [/QUOTE]
