If Bam had MKG's motor, he'd be a top 10 pick.

I never thought Bam's motor was what was in question. :idunno:

Same... I've never questioned his effort, kid plays hard. He's just not that skilled away from the rim.

Needs another year to develop the 12-15-foot jumper. If UK signs the big kid (and they will) Bamba, does Bam move to the 4 to work on his shot?

 

Bam and Bamba.

Definitely going to have to develop a short jumper to be successful at the next level. I think he would benefit greatly from another year at UK.

That would be an awesome interior duo. Fingers crossed.

Seems like he has pretty decent form, just needs better "touch".

That definitely would be a "Bam Bam". :banana:

 

Broadcast teams wold have a good time with that angle.

Can we, as UK fans, admit that "he needs another year" really means "we need him next year" and we really have no clue what the NBA is looking for?

Kentucky doesn't need him next year. They want him. There's a world of difference between the two.

Looks to me like the Cats will have Humphries, Gabriel, and a freshman. You wanna put title hopes in those three?

[InItToWinIt]

Does anybody think this would turn Bamba away from UK? Correct me if I'm wrong but if Bam stays they may have to split PT. I guess that's Cal's specialty, but I think an 18 year old whose being told how good he is constantly would like to walk into a program where he could start and play 30+ right away.

Not in the least. One at the 4, the other at the 5.

Where to you get that?

 

They'll have Humphries, Gabriel, SKJ, Wynard, Richards, Washington, and Vanderbilt. The also have a very good shot at Bamba. Where exactly is the need?

[DragonFire]

I very much hope he comes back, and I think he would really benefit from it. Because right now, I don't trust him taking a shot in which he can't feel the rim on his palm.

Would you turn down the guarantee of making multi-millions of $$ at the age of 18?
