I have serious questions about Anthony Davis's offensive game.

Nice hesitation by Barnes, but he has to take it strong to the hole. Screw passing to Zeller.

Zeller is in his way, along with his defender, so it kinda sucks they're blocking the lane there's no way Harry can go thru...it happened a lot this season :cry:

He is the number one pick due to his Defense...with his (beyond) freakish length.

Someone like Quincy MIller cannot J on Top of Davis

I agree. He looks really good. Is he declaring? I've heard his name around before but never watched him play

You need to be good on both sides of the ball to warrant a top pick.

Gotta love Harry playing cat and mouse game thru screens, coming back to find enough space to knock that sweet jumper down.

Wow. I've never seen Kentucky so distraught. Nothing they're doing out there is working. if it's not inside, they're shooting 3s

Dee Bost is looking pretty impressive. First time I've watched him.

Moultrie looks pretty interesting for real.

Not true. If it's true. Davis wouldn't even be a consensus top pick now. And he's not super bad on offense, he just hasn't developed it yet. You have a big man with game-changer on defense with athleticism and motor that are sold enough that he can use these skills to improve on offense via pick and roll, then he's sold as 1st pick. But anyways, why do I bother replying, it's not like you'll agree to it cos you're trying to prove he's not 1st pick material lol

Good game for Harrison Barnes. 20 points on 7-of-14 shooting from the field, 2-of-5 from downtown, and 4-of-5 from the free-throw line. Although it would've been nice to see Barnes crash the glass earlier in the game, but he scored efficiently, so it's fine.

With the way Quincy shoots the ball, his mechanics/no elevation : He cannot shot on top of Davis in a switch situation for example.

Just another dig at Quincy :wink:
