This will be unpopular I'm sure, but I will take Dioubate's intangibles on both sides of the floor everyday over Stevenson. I just don't understand the NBA prospect talk.


Umm…no. Stevenson is going to be really good, and can shoot. Needs to toughen up just a smidge, but dude has skills

He can shoot, drive/dribble (took several plays coast to coast last year), decent passer, is 6-11, and has some rim protection (although that one needs some work but better than MoD’s).

Absolutely. So talented. Missing four players and still dismantling a really good Wake Forest team.

the 6'11 thing is overplayed, he was 6'8.5 at the combine. Even in shoes he's 6'9.5 at best.

He’s got at least 2-3 inches on MoD. You saying MoD is 6-5ish? He also has a materially bigger wingspan if I’m remembering correctly.

Mo D is not only a better rim protector than stephenson he is a 5 times better all around defender. In fact we have to put Mo D on the big when Cliff leaves because Stevenson can't guard people his size. Look, I want the guy to be solid, but I still see a 6'11 average spor up shooter who is pretty soft

Holloway wasn’t very good at Auburn, was it just the fit?

Argue with the measuring stick at the combine, not me. There's been no reports of him growing since then.

He does need to toughen up, I agree with that.

But he just switched onto the Wake G isolated at the top of the key off a screen and was able to stay with him and force a missed contested shot at the elbow. MoD is a better defender right now, but Stevenson isn’t terrible when he’s not getting bullied under the basket. Stevenson’s offense is his bread and butter though

If I was 18, there is no telling how I’d handle an unkempt lardass with a social media addiction lecturing me about composure and decision making

Played a team ranked #30 in AP poll without 3 starters and drilled them. Holy shite

Philon and Reid look like they could explode after a couple months getting comfortable. Excited to see Sherrill now.
