If it isn't the guy that like to compare specific seasons. Compare Brooks' freshman season to Young's 8-)

Well I decided to use your criteria to look at the two. If I use your criteria we could only hope Young could catch up to Marshon.


What exactly is my criteria? I would like to know. I'm curious

Career vs career like you do for prospects you don't like. Can't change the way you look at things just because you don't like the way it turns out. If you are fair and look at everyone the same these two guys are very close with. Marshon ahead. Let's just be fair about it all.

:lol:

Fair. With that method, James Young will be as good as Marshon Brooks is right now as a rookie. That's not bad, considering that he's only 18 years old putting up the numbers that it took Brooks up into his senior year at 22 years old to do

Awesome so after his third year in the league he will be averaging 7.7 points per game. We will have had one decent season out of him though.

...and based on my method, Stauskas will be out of the league in 3 years. I need to end this debate, because you're making it out as if I dislike Stauskas because you dislike Young. I'm just not going to overrate his point guard skills just to drive home a point, the same way I'm not going to overrate Young's just because he helped lead Kentucky to a championship. Young was inefficient and it's worrisome, but my hunch is that he'll improve because I like his approach and mentality to the scoring end

Check my top five because Young was in it. I don't dislike him I was proving that if you smudge the numbers any way you can you can make things look bad for anyone. I think Young will be better than Marshon but they do have similar numbers in college.

Well, looks like the cornrows were a one day thing.

He has the baby dreads back.

Possibly the first player ever to shake the commissioners hand at the podium with dreads/twists. ( No, this is not a shot towards him)
