Your a moron for judging a kid off of one game. He has dropped some of the best stat lines in high school this year and he a very underated player.

It's one game. Why are we basing an entire career off of one game? He is probably not a fundamentally sound player right now, and was going against kids who have great fundamentals and are coached extremely well. I think it's completely unfair to say a kid will not be SEC caliber when in 4A basketball he's averaging 24/14/6.5
Understood, but remember his number are that because he is 6'9 in high school. He has a smooth shot and is reasonably good at fundamentals. He isn't horrible, I just expected his team to go down with him getting the ball and taking it to much shorter kids. Of course he'll get better and better, I just don't see him being an effective 4 at an SEC school at this point....and playing 5 or 3 would be out of the question with his current skill set.
I hope he comes to LSU and is All SEC! I left very disappointed with his utilization and output in the biggest game of the year.

Uh, ok...Take all the shots at me you wish. Doesn't change the fact that I was disappointed in the performance I saw. I expected to see him take over the game, or at least try to, but it never happened. It's not like he was missing a bunch of shots, he wasnt taking many. I found that odd since he is a star and they were losing by 14 at half. Not sure, but I would guess he had 6 or at half.
Of course STM had a solid game plan to defend him, that's what all schools did to him all year I would imagine.
I am not judging him or his future at LSU after one game, I'm just telling you what I saw that night.
Actually, we were shocked he was utilized more from the outside because he has such a nice shot. So I guess the coach just didn't have enough answers as well.
His frame actually reminds me a lot of the Stevenson kid from Northside that went to Kentucky a few years back....although he has a lot more muscle, they looked similar in the shoulder areas....Stevenson was serviceable at Kentucky, so I'm sure he'll see the floor plenty at LSU.
