... but he looks so goddamn graceful with his physicality. He's "smooth" without all of the pussified connotations. Feisty on D, killer from 3, amazing hands, destructive in the open court. Gets into the lane at will, a terrific nose for the ball off the glass. My only complaint would be that he doesn't assert himself consistently enough due to so many weapons on the floor at once. On any non-Indiana team, he's putting up 20/8/5 on over 50% shooting.
I would take him in a minute in the draft. I'd take him as high as 4th... maybe higher.

That is, if you like defensive stoppers who can score at times AND distribute the ball...
If you like gunning PGs who have no idea how to get their teammates involved , then you'd probably disagree. ______________________ Planet Asia & Gensu Dean - Abrasions Inspectah Deck + 7L & Esoteric - CZARFACE Cocaine 80s - The Flower Of Life

Gary's preordained joke out of conference schedule did us no favors, and a few bad road losses worsened our situation. But after this loss, beating NC State, an beating Duke twice...I mean there's gonna be some dogshit resumes that get in over us is all I'm sayin ...but that's how it goes

7 in a row since a loss to UW ...Matta is coaching his ass off..:
The win marks the first time Ohio State has defeated Michigan State twice in the same season when the Spartans are ranked in the Top 10 nationally. Ohio State is 21-9 all-time in the Big Ten Tournament.
The Buckeyes have advanced to six of the last seven tournament finals (five consecutive) and have won 17 of their last 21 games in the tourney overall. Michigan State shot 40 percent for the game (20-50). The Buckeyes have held opposing teams under 50 percent shooting in 29 of 32 games.
OSU owned a 15-6 advantage in bench points. The Buckeyes have a 587-379 edge over opposing benches in points scored this season.
Matta owns the best Big Ten Tournament winning percentage (.783) and the second-most tournament wins (18) of any conference coach in history.
Matta has compiled a record of 49-12 as a head coach in March, the fourth-best record by percentage (.803) among active coaches.
With 16 points, Deshaun Thomas moved to No. 17 on the all-time scoring list at Ohio State (1,524 total points). He needs six points to pass Tony Campbell for 16th. Aaron Craft has totaled five or more assists in 17 games this season. In 32 games played this season, Craft has recorded a steal in all but one game

Our offensive dry spells scary me at times, but this team never quits on the defensive end. That has allowed us to grind out wins all year. We never blow teams out, yet on the other hand, our loses have been pretty bad.
Our perimeter shooting finally came together for the tourney. Hope this means the team can continue to shoot the 3 well.
