Noel should've gone at the bottom of the first round or early second round point blank period. It is what it is. MKG wasn't worth a lottery pick. The market is flooded with kids that aren't ready so its an even bigger crap shoot. lottery within a lottery.

And the biggest misconception about the NBA is thinking a kids that's lacking skills can come in and be developed. That's bullshyt. The numbers don't add up.

Breh dis is so true...like that oubre kid outta kansas....like he can avg 3ppg. He is going top 5. shyt is crazy yo.

:mjpls: he aint no damn defensive anchor. His fundamentals suck and he's too fukking skinny. Not to mention is basketball IQ is :snoop:. He doesn't play with confidence or passion. he's just happy to be in the NBA getting a check. Philly's defense sucks.

Breh..give him at least another year for you jump to conclusions

Emmanuel Mudiay went to China instead of going to SMU, i've heard he's doing well over there

He was forced to go...Deion Sanders prime prep shyt cant get you into college. Those credits don't get you eligible to play on the floor. Look at all the past prospects. They all had waviers to play.

Stop it breh.
If you were D1 talent and knew you'd be going in the draft, you could be suffering from the early onset of arthritis in both knees and you wouldn't say a word to anybody if you could help it.
Cut it out.

nikka please...the physicals they give you would expose ya ass. They pull you left and right

The point evidently went over your head.
Plenty of guys have know they weren't built to play at this level before throwing their name in the draft, albeit physically or skill wise.
Point is, everyone in this thread would make the jump regardless for that check.
fukk a "not ready."

No the biggest misconception about college is that a player staying 3-4 years in college will acquire so much skill that they'd beast in the NBA. Antony Davis came out after one year and look at him now. John Wall came out after a year, so did Derrick Rose, Demarcus Cousins, Kyrie Irving, Kevin Durant. Kevin Love spent one season in college., Westbrook spent 2 seasons and never averaged more than 15ppg but he didn't develop in the NBA right? How about Demar Derozan? Lebron, Kobe, and KG never even went.

Hasheem Thabeet spent 3 years in college and where the fukk is he today? In the d-league still developing. Why didn't he "develop" in his 3 years in college. Emeka Okafor spent 4 years in college and was drafted after Dwight Howard who spent ZERO years in college? Which one of those players is an 8x all star, 5x all nba, 3x defensive player of the year? I'll give you a hint it isn't the one who spent 4 years in college and is currently not playing in the league

It's not just one its many and I'm a fan of the NBA. It makes the overall quality of the league shytty. And I can't stand to watch. Again. I'm not against freshman coming out but, you aint accomplish shyt in college. Everybody can't be Lebron James. Andrew Wiggins lackluster game and lackluster play was apparent when he was at Kansas, and now we have to deal with that bullshyt in the NBA. The game is all fukked up now.


When high school coaches stopped coaching and the AAU became a full business this is what you get. Most players under 25 are still stuck in that AAU mindset.

So he's a defensive role player? You gumps have proven my point once again. There was a time when lottery picks were reserved for players considered franchise cornerstones and potential super stars. Now its been reduced to role players. Noel isn't a complete player and you will never be able to build a team around HIM and HIM alone.


They got MCW for that

The best way to improve is to work with those better than you.
Exactly, most of the NBA bust were straight running shyt in college, some people even made to the nba off of hs mixtapes, like this nikka Daniel Orton.


This cat averaged 3.4 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks in 13.2 minutes per game. And still got picked up in the first round. Not to mention after being injuried half the season
