Part of it is due to the long misses, but yeah, Wisconsin is getting too many offensive rebounds.

Stein is being guarded by a 6-5 guard and is a non factor each way. The two times he went up agajnst Kaminsky tank scored. Just watching him he has bust written all over him I agree wiyh chris webber. He is not a top pick he's below 15

He needs time. He's still a lottery talent, but his development would go more smoothly on a team with strong veteran leadership.

He's a non guard on defense and he's nit strong enough to gaurd nba pivots he looks like chicken with his head cut off at times

Statistics show that OK4 finishes 12% more of his shots than Towns.

Yet they do make some big shots, and they usually play tough defense.

Not sure why there is so much dislike for these guys.

I haven't watched a ton of college ball other than the tournament but didn't you make the statement about Towns when he got bumped and got the and one? I have seen Okafor score/finish when being defended a lot tougher. Just based on watching these guys 4-5 times so I could be wrong.

Ok4 defensive IQ, free throws and latteral quickness is terrible. Towns is active with his feet on pick and rolls....Towns is a defensive big with back to the basket offense in the post. But with his high fouks and quick yank, its hard to gage him. Towns is the highest risk....higbest reward pick.

Kaminsky looks like a solid mid round pick.....really no surprises from the 1st round guys. Guards on duke and Kentucky are underrated.

dk7th @ 4/4/2015 10:19 PM
wow big shot by kaminsky.
blkexec @ 4/4/2015 10:20 PM
I like Kaminsky for this triangle system.
TPercy @ 4/4/2015 10:21 PM
Calipari is an idiot. sees that the only way they are scoring inside is through mismatches an still allows it.
CrushAlot @ 4/4/2015 10:21 PM
Kaminsky beast mode.
TPercy @ 4/4/2015 10:22 PM
12 of wisconsins points is off of mismatches. You are such a great coach.
BRIGGS @ 4/4/2015 10:22 PM
Tank making stein look stupid
blkexec @ 4/4/2015 10:24 PM
It might be hard to see....but towns can guard 4 positions....hes still a risk due to limited playing time. But how many bigs can guard down low and chase decker up top?

I don't really see an NBA post game from Towns yet. I see the potential for one, but he needs work. On the flip side, I wouldn't call OK4 defensive IQ terrible, just inconsistent. I'm not sure how any of the guards on Duke or Kentucky project as pros, with the exception of Booker.
