Wasn't even talking to you, windbag. Don't you have some meaningless post-game posts to craft? At least one person here hangs on every word of your analysis.

That one person is apparently you.

His length,  ball skills, agility,  ambidexterity,  and footwork jumped out of his videos.

🙃

Pruitt started on a top 15 team as a soph.  Dainja isn’t as good as him. Period.

The fact you go on about 1 game is ridiculous.

Why don’t you tell us all how good Ty Rodgers is?  Or Sky Clark?  They both suck and I told you that before they got here.

Said it after the UCLA game. He's legit. Dain is quite nimble with solid footwork and good handles for a big guy. He's a little wild at times but with this being basically his freshman year I can live with the growing pains. Wish we'd run more actions with him because I feel we operate at our best when he gets a post touch or two per possession.

His battles with Kofi in practice have paid dividends.

Dainja is a 3rd year “freshman” though.

He’s going to be 21 in July.  He should be looked at in the same way Coleman Hawkins is.  That’s his experience level.  Hawkins is who he is at this point.  Same with Dainja. He’s not going to get much better. He’s a functional role player but if he’s your best player you aren’t going to be very good as a team.

As a freshman, Pruitt played in 19 games and averaged less than 5 mph. Wtf are you talking about?
He did start as a sophomore on a pretty good team led by Dee Brown.   

Dainja is much longer, has considerably better ball skills, bigger hands,  can shoot or pass with either hand, has better foot work, is a vastly better shot blocker, better passer ...

Nope. You're a blowhard and prove it in every post. None of your game thoughts has any meaning. I could talk to a random person on the street, and their thoughts would be more interesting. You're basically a washed-up, dried-up, shriveled hanger-on from the old board, where any number of braindeads hung on your every word. Here, you have one fan.

Occasionally your take on things borders on Dom prickiness. This one is beyond the pale. Did we ever figure out you name? 

IV = 4? Intravenous?

MP = military police? methylprednisolone?

There are a few people here who have interesting takes on various topics. Others are funny. That does not mean anyone hangs on every word.

LOL. I knew that would make you come running.

Now go say "Ditto" to a Lapdog post, rubber stamp.

I respect Chicken George's knowledge about rock music. I have some knowledge up to a certain point, but then it became too much of a hassle to follow. I never got into punk, metal, or all the variations. I liked prog before it was called prog prog, and classic rock when it was contemporary.

That does not mean I necessarily  agree on Chicken's take on music or even like his personna.

Never agreed with Rob McColley much, but we do have mutual acquaintances in the real world and I have children his age. I found his views expressed here quirky and interesting.

Shaun Pruitt’s freshman year was the 2004-05 team.   Did you expect him to get minutes over Augustine?

Dainja is in his 3rd year of college. To think of him as a freshman is retarded.

You seem to have significant mental health issues.
There is help out there for that.
