Joel Ntambwe (UNLV Transfer)

[mauconnfan]

Sid could easily be starting at the 3 if his jumper is more consistent, which I don't think is out of the realm of possibility.

His On man defense needs to get a ton better too.

 

[navery12]

Per his Instagram story, as of 30 min ago he is practicing at UNLV’s facility

I wouldn't be too concerned with that. He's still a student there so he has to be back at UNLV

 

[GHSWolverines]

I've a hard time believing Akok won't start at the 4 next year, so that would put Polley at the 3. I don't know if that's the way to go or not. I'd rather put three guards or a true wing out there myself. I wouldn't be shocked to see Bouknight at starting the 3.

and what does this have to do with Ntambwe?

 

[MDHuskFan]

I just keep seeing notifications checking if there is a commitment

He’s just practicing on the areas where Hurley told him he needs improvement

I appreciate your interest but you need a better understanding of what #ChiefCertified means. That was new news and level of confidence in what was trending on Twitter. Please remember that what’s on Twitter is often inaccurate.
@Rico444, I hope this helps your understanding. Thanks.

Are you saying the two day old tweet you certified was really new news but inaccurate? Wtf?

 

[noeynox]

Polley served a purpose he was a shooter who drew forwards away from the basket and opened up lanes, problem was that he wasn’t really serviceable at anything else. His biggest deficiency is toughness. You’d have to to think Calhoun would have taken a VERY different approach with him than Hurley. I wonder if that approach would be more effective.

Bring back the rebounding drill.

Hurley doesn't use rebounding drills at all. Goes against his philosophy. Defense is for nerds.

If we can't out-recruit Rutgers and BC for this guy, pack it up.

 

[Waquoit]

Pack it up, pack it in, let me begin, I came to win...

Or you could just go...

If it's about exposure and getting a chance to play marquee teams then those teams definitely have a chance to make a run at him. I don't think that is the case here. They are just looking at him is not even close to having him in for an official.

Now that I have convinced myself of that, please let me explain. There’s a vast universe of stuff on Twitter - some inaccurate, some accurate and a mix of both in a tweet.
A #ChiefCertified post is a much higher standard. Much more due diligence is done. It’s easy to throw stuff out there a day or two early without accountability but sometimes it takes time to validate something. You can’t really compare the two. I hope this helps.

Any update on the two outstanding "surprises" from months ago?

Thanks for the transparency

sid has worst court awareness than my grandma

How is your Grandma at filling the lane? Does she fall for the trick where the inbounder runs the baseline and tries to get her called for running into someone setting a pick?

So Akok wasn’t a surprise to you, especially the timing? More to come!

BOOYAH everyone, we will have news of some sort at some point in the future, maybe before next season. Color me excited

Does your grandma have any eligibility left?

I

A classic picture and tag line - but Chief does love the casual fan - despite all the heartache. At least that is my goal.

I was alluding to the legendary Calhoun rebounding drill.
