Message: [QUOTE="mauconnfan, post: 2656850, member: 489"] OMG what the heck are you guys seeing? He's not a even a good player on an awful team. Adams is a good player on an awful team who at times also could use a little kick in the butt on defense, but he will prove to be better with Hurley doing just that I am sure. Larrier dominating he G league? He's lucky to play in the G League, he's a skinny shooting SF with no ball handling skills (suppose that's on Ko and the staff tooLOL) and he's very weak, can't get to the rim. His defense will be fine in the G league because they don't play any. Coached up is so overrated on a kid that age - he should be a ton better just by maturity alone and he's not. 2 coaches here remember Shaka too, so no one go through to him because he's talented yet he's not too good. But instead of blaming a 22-23 year old kid let's blame all the coaches. Any of you read what [B]Bobby Hurley Sr [/B]said because it's right on - SPOT ON actually. Don't have it verbatim but he said[B] the next 6 months are crucial [/B]to each kid because they need to have a plan and work that plan from now until practice begin so they are ready to get coached. Off season making yourself better is so important to these kids and we get kids lately who don't get better. How can a guy with TL's ability not be able to keep his handle in traffic ever, he's awful?? Because of him not the coaches at all. Bobby SR is right and maybe KO never left these guys with a plan to get better, shame on him I am sure Danny will and they will have expectations when they get in the gym in October. Hard to think the Husky we all loved because of his hard work and effort which kept him the game for 13 years at the highest level didn't offer some guidance as to how to come back ready and better than when they stopped playing. Or maybe these guys just aren't as good as we think? Maybe Larriers knee will be stronger than it was this past year because the guy I saw was like a colt with no explosion doing anything. He dunked more as a freshman at VCU by tons than we saw this year, very few. All I know is I'd much prefer to save that slot for a PG or a shooter who can play on both ends. But that's just me, you can take back the guy you think needs to be coached up. [/QUOTE]
