I understand the comparison to Kemp as far as athleticism, no doubt he has that gift. Needs work and lots of it as far as around the basket. Will be good on defense protecting the rim and rebounding the ball right away. There is no rush for the rest - the team has the tools to give him time to learn. He can really pass the ball and Alex and others will benefit no doubt so noone should be concerned about his lack of fundamentals around the hoop. The staff is excellent and will teach him to be good - can't help but learn and get better with his gifts. Wonder what the hell Quinn was doing at STM? lol
lol all you want.......quinn taught him well....he made great strides.....konchalski saw him play maybe five times and and spends more time socializing than watching......On offense he is getting the individual work he needed but to say he is that raw is almost an injustice let alone an insult.....you will see.....i have posted numerous times that his biggest contribution this year will be his team defense and as a garbageman underneath.......Quinn was the perfect coach for ad's development......and his mother was very appreciative....you had to see the kid's growth over the last two years as a player and as a student......Since very few board members have seen him play ball all kinds of crap is coming out.........when the season begins you will see great things maybe not from the start but soon after.....Been following Uconn bb since 55 ....he will be the best to play at storrs we just won't see that...the pro's will.
“He has not yet reached basketball puberty. He doesn’t know how to play.” Konchalski may be a bit overstating this time!!
