I’d bet my nuts Tanner voted for Big Willie Style

I don’t know if you guys caught the 2 games on CBS, as well as the game on ESPN, but in tuning in to watch John Wall play, Patterson really caught my eye. I already knew who he was and that he was an All America candidate, but I had no idea the range and consistency on his jump shot. The way he plays overall kind of reminds me a younger Elton Brand, not sure if that’s a good thing or a depressing thing.

I’m watching Kansas / Michigan right now and Cole Aldrich is pretty impressive to me…defensively smart, knows what he’s doing, Michigan doesn’t really post up down low so he stays with his guy (Kansas plays a man to man) to make it harder for him to get open shots, but he knows how to box out, how to position…he posts up down low offensively and has shown some good court vision, his offensive game is limited but you can see some natural ability there that could be worke don with ‘unlimited’ coaching staffs avbailable in the NBA.

If you think about the future, and believe speights can be a 4, Aldrich looks like a nice compliment

Holiday
Iguodala
Thaddeus Young
Speighs
ALdrich

I know I know less about basketball than most here but I’m going to try and watch some of these guys and see what I can see, I like what I see about Aldrich so far, I like what I see reflecting his BBall IQ

So I always tend to watch some games and find some under the radar guys who I just like.

Only watched a half – but I like this Dexter Pittman on Texas (not in the first round, just like the kid)

And underwhelmed by Ed Davis, defensively he seems a bit lost, a lot of bad lackadasical plays by UNC as a whole on a huge stage game
