TROB also has to put up with a great help defender who is allowed to hang in the defensive key for more than 3 seconds tonight.

Davis can`t do that in the NBA... not meant as a slight against AD, he is pure beast.

I'm with you. Of course he wouldn't be my first choice but he has been on the radar for 2 years now, does a lot of things well and plays with as much energy as anyone.

Kinda similar to JJ unfortunately, I just dont see any clear cut number 2 in this draft. The second best player could easily be drafted in the 7-15 range. We just need to be the lucky team to end up with that person.

Kansas missing so many clean looks. That's gonna cost them down the game.

NCAA refs always favour the team that is down double digits.

Davis is getting star non-calls already.

He'll get the same treatment in the NBA as he will be future.

There is just no clear second pick in this draft

I cannot see any reason why Barnes or Lamb could not climb to the second pick over those 2, after the workouts.


Robinson should be clear #2 with MKG as the #3 pick

Davis has no post game and can't dribble, he will never score 20+ in the NBA!!!!!!

Cmon T.Rob, at least when you have the ball on top of key..try the triple threat position...T.Jones is not respecting that J at all..

this isn't necessarily a good thing.
Although I do believe that his offensive game can develop, shotblocking and D don't mean too much in the NCAA; especially when considering number 1 picks.
