Just keep it fresh in your minds after reading 6 pages of pure gold.
From that link in case you missed it on PAGE 3
I like the litte guy in the glasses right in the middle that sticks his finger up for about a half a second and pulls back down just as quick so he can hide from Henderson.

Here's a pretty hilarious breakdown of all of the shenanigans. LINK
From that link in case you missed it on PAGE 3
quote:
-Obviously, we kick things off with the older gentleman standing up in defiance right in front of Henderson. Not sure what he said to Henderson, but that guy wasn't having anymore of the tomfoolery.
-The guy in the white polo is big-time, just smiling the entire time. He loves it.
-Jerry Garcia-looking guy on press row. He's clapping, smiling, really enjoying the scene.
-The crew of double-middle finger guys. They're forever best friends.
-The guy who rips his hat off. He was so heated he just couldn't take it anymore.
-Now we get to the sleepers: To kick things off, check out my man next to Auburn pajamas girl. He's got the creepy sideways grin, like he digs Marshall Henderson's attitude, but can't have his friends find out.
-Speaking of Auburn pajamas girl, she looks out of place. And is also terrified by the flying object to her left.
-What is that flying object? No one really knows. Could be a Fathead, could be a cardboard cutout, could be an umbrella. But the blonde girl reacts like it's a head. A real one.
-White hat fellow. Waving his hands, yelling "Come on, come on, come on!" to Henderson. His flailing hands and sideways shuffle steals the show for a bit.
-The guy right in the middle who emphatically sticks a middle finger at Henderson -- and then tears it right back down. Everything he did was 100 percent.
-The curly-haired kid in the orange shirt. He gives the fingers, claps two times (as if to get loose) -- and then goes back with the fingers.
-Kid in the gray hoodie to the left. It kind of looks like he sneezes as the GIF starts -- but bounces back extraordinarily quickly to join in the ballyhoo.
-What about the girl in the upper right corner? She yells some profanity, and then goes tumbling forward, either getting pushed or falling from the momentum of her yelling.
-And yes, the older, older gentleman in the front row just seems dismayed by the entire scene. ---And probably this analysis of it.
I like the litte guy in the glasses right in the middle that sticks his finger up for about a half a second and pulls back down just as quick so he can hide from Henderson.

You're acting as if every great college basketball player gets drafted. Henderson is a far better college basketball player than Archie Goodwin, but Goodwin will still go in the lottery because of his athleticism/measurables.
Henderson is a 6'2" SG. That's the main reason he'll never be on any draft boards.
I understand what you're saying but it still stands, he's a college player but not exceptional. He's not afraid to shoot and I give him credit for that, but that's how he gets his numbers. I would bet a lot of college players would score as many points if they put it up at his rate. As for his height:
Leandro Barbosa 6'3"
Jason Terry 6'2"
Willie Green 6'2"
Daniel Gibson 6'2"
Eric Gordon 6'3"
That's just a quick glance but you can play in the NBA as a 6'2" SG IF you're really that good. Oh, and I'd take Goodwin 10 times out of 10 on my college team over Henderson. Kid is just a freshman.

Most players aren't capable of making the shots Henderson is making. He's taking nearly impossible shots, and he's making a good portion of them. If he were only taking good shots, he'd be shooting at a far better percentage. He's lethal whenever he's left open (which is just about never). Henderson is also very good at drawing fouls (alright, flopping), and can hit the open man when there's absolutely not a shot that can be had.
Goodwin is just an out-of-control player. He'll drive to the rim with his head down, not seeing open guys, and put up awful shots or get called for a charge. He's more athletic than just about every other SG in the country (save McLemore), so he'll be drafted high in the lotto, but I'd take multiple SEC SGs over him as college players. Henderson is one of them.
Also, most of those small shooting guards you listed are lanky and/or built like oxen. Brad Beal is another example... He's only 6'3" but plays like he's 6'6" because of his strength/build. Henderson doesn't have that. Chris Lofton never had that. Kenny Boynton doesn't have that.

If this would have happened to Alabama, LSU, Miss. state, Etc...the same people saying there is nothing is wrong with it, would be bitching just like AU fans are. shite, most of you all called Cam a Thug POS if he smiled a lot.
What will it take for AU fans to realize it is not just upset bammers and rival SEC fans that dislike Cam? He gets called out by his own teammates in Carolina for having a bad attitude. Fellow Pro Bowlers purposely take shots at him due to his entitled attitude. But I guess it is just pissed off bammers that think he is a smug POS.

So he takes stupid shots. I think his style of play would actually fit in well with Mike Anderson's style of play actually.

Too lazy to go through this thread, but did anyone add any witty captions?

i have no problem with marshal henderson.
in fact i think he's great.
sec basketball is horrible and needs someone to shake things up.
when else would we ever be talking about a basketball game between om and auburn?
props to henderson for making such a shitty product at least interesting.

With that kind of self control I see a hard foul in his future, from a walk-on. Kid's too easy.

I wouldn't. We already have someone to barrel into the lane and throw up some shite (see BJ Young).
We need someone that can hit a fricking jumpshot.

Hey, remember that time we beat your arse 64-49? Ha, yeah, that was fun. I thought y'all were supposed to be good at basketball, but you're not. What exactly do you dumb fricking yankees bring to the table again?
