Deandre Jordan tonite ESPN. 

Post#1 » by GameTime_3 » Mon Feb 18, 2008 9:17 pm

9 pm Tonite on ESPN.

Deandre Jordan vs Texas.

For those who have not had a chance to check this guy out, here is your chance. He is a potential top 3 pick in the upcoming NBA Draft. Alot of potential. He comes off the bench so dont freak out when you dont see him in the starting lineup!

It is a bit scary to use a lottery pick on a player who comes off the bench for his college team. DQ was a bit of a question mark but at least he played in a stud filled team where they were better served with him being a scorer off the bench.

Wasn't DQ the 6th man because he played the same position as OSU's senior team captain? I thought that was the case, I might be wrong.

That was part of it but the fact that he was a good scorer it made him more valuable off the bench.

Roy Hibbert just finished lyrically assassinating Providence's interior defense.
For a long time it gave me nightmares,witnessing an injustice like that.It’s a constant reminder of just how unfair this world can be.I can still hear them taunting him, Silly Rabbit tricks are for kids.I mean why couldn’t they just give him some cereal?

The above logic is why I was hesitant about Ronnie Brown. Until he turned it on for those games this season before he got hurt, I still felt that way. I say talent is talent and if someone is better than him at his position, that's why he's starting. Either that or his coach is a jerkoff.

Texas A&M is probley the worst post passing team ive seen. Deandre jordan gets position in a good spot and they miss him time after time. So Far Jordan has not been impressing but i dont know that its him fault.

that was actually a pretty good game by his standards lately. Now you guys know why some NBA scouts call him a more athletic Patrick O'Bryant.

The man has spoken.

No more mentions of this player as a potential draft prospect with our first pick.

Ever.
