He seemed so over everything this season. This is why you’d actually maybe rather have several top 20-40 guys than a top 3 guy. They cost a ton and mostly are just waiting for the draft.


I think Peterson is a totally different animal than your typical 1 and done recruit to be fair. I don't think I've ever seen another player just pull himself and sit the rest of the game because his legs were getting tired or he didn’t feel like playing anymore or whatever. I honestly have no clue why they don't just tell him to frick off and focus on his draft prep. I guess because he's talented enough to drop 30 in 20 minutes on the court if he's feeling motivated so you might as well see if that happens, but at some point it seems like it has to become counterproductive no matter how good he is. Everyone else on that team knows who he is and what he's about and they all have to hate his arse. Especially the guys playing at less than 100%.

He's a Kings draft pick all the way.

I don't see Bristow returning and who knows what Onyejiaka will end up doing. If he ever manages to get healthy and play or even play here. He looks the part.

But we get killed by big teams and we need size.

Portal has brought us Sears, Nelson, Trelly, Biz, Houston, Youngblood.

Estrada as well. 2nd leading scorer, 2nd leading Rebounder, and 1st in assists for the final four team. Oddly, had a lot of haters

I can't imagine being an NBA gm or owner and making Peterson a top pick. He has basically put every possible red flag out there that he is either a head case or he will straight up quit on his teammates. Then I hear experts say "oh he is just bored at the college level" as if that's a reasonable explanation. That makes zero logical sense. He is bored doing the job that you are about to pay him franchise money with???

From the standpoint of being a basketball player, I love his game though.

I like recruits ranked in the 70s. That seems to be our sweet spot for landing NBA talent.

Where is the competitive spirit? I never saw Jordan bored. Not to use the greatest player as an example, I never saw Moses Malone bored, Wes Unsell, TR Dunn etc. How about going about business in a way that at the end of each day you can look yourself in the mirror and honestly know you did your best that day. Just show respect for your teammates, organization, and fans.
