HE COULD HAVE SCORED 30 + POINTS TODAY IF HE DROVE TO THE BASKET MORE. LAMB SHOULD USE HIS GREAT HANDLES AND DRIVE TO BASKET MORE...


Lamb can do that provided the useless bigs on his team clear out.

The worst part of Lamb game is he jacks up too many three's and outside shots like today, I like to see him mixed up and drive to basket more.


No. 19 points on 12 shots with 7 rebounds.

Yeah, I'm a fan of Crowder.


I bet you could pick him up late in the 2nd round too, which obviously makes him low risk, decent reward. He won't measure out well, he probably won't be the most athletic guy either, but he'll be a player at the next level.


late 1rd, 2nd sure why not...

UCLA's Joshua Smith looks like a Eddy Curry redux. He needs to lose some serious weight, because he's got skill as a post player.

Seriously, what kind of player do you think he could be at, 6'9'', 270ish? Looks like he's got game.

I'm interested to know as well. He sounds interesting although judging by his stats he's a terrible rebounder for a big.

a poor mans zach randolph?

I'm not sure, i love watching him whenever the bruins play zona and its always the same thing. He would be a great player if he lost weight, yet he still hasn't lost it. Not feeling to optimistic for the future. The only saving grace is knowing how well Ben Howland develops players for success in the nba.

They need to feature Quincy Miller. I've never seen as dumb a coach as Scott Drew.

How's Terrance Jones doing? Haven't heard much talk about him. Seems he'd be a nice player to grab w| a 2nd pick.

Terrence Jonas playing with some aggressiveness today. Went up with a jam on three defenders.

Terrance Henry from Ole Miss playing pretty well. Forced Anthony Davis into 2 fouls. Really like his game. Can shoot the ball, post-up and put the ball on the floor for the odd drive.
