Message: [QUOTE="The Viking, post: 3890911, member: 1599"] I fall into this same trap as you. But in the end, these kids just want to play in the NBA and if the NBA scouts want him and he wants to go, it doesn't matter if he doesn't have that moment in the Garden that so many of our greats have had. He would have that next year. I mean honestly, if he came back next year we'd be the favorite to win the regular season, the BE championship, and make a very deep run toward the the finals. But a lot of these kids want to go as soon as their is legit interest. That's why when you get a Shabazz Napier type come thru the program you cherish the hell out of it as a UConn fan. Those are the types of players - the 3-4 year players who don't get immediately scooped up by the NBA - that have been enormous for us. [/QUOTE]
