RockPride Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 I noticed a tidbit about McRoberts...if he stays long enough, I firmly believe that he'll be a Duke legend..check this out. Sophomore Josh McRoberts is currently averaging 12.8 points, 8.0 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 2.35 blocks and 1.25 steals per game. No player in Duke history has averaged more than 10.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 2.0 blocks and 1.0 steals for a season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Charms Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 NO!!! He isn't that good. You'll see how "good" he is when he plays against TH from UNC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hasn't lived up to expectations coming out of Carmel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockPride Posted January 27, 2007 Author Share Posted January 27, 2007 ^ I agree that he hasn't lived up to it YET...but I do think that he is playing well and makes the other players better, he is a tough matchup for the opposition.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually think a mix of Josh and Brian will give Tyler some fits, we'll see on the 7th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dolamite Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 If he stay's all four years I think you can place him in that category. If he stays, and is healthy for four years, then I believe he will have just as good if not a better career (playing wise/stat wise) as Boozer, and Big Shell, and these two guys are certainly Duke legends. Big Shell and Redick proved that you don't necesarily have to win a championship in order to be a Duke elite. You might have to have an explosion of numbers but they proved they can still be in that elite class without a ring. By the way things are looking McRoberts may have to be in the Dukie elite mold of Sheldon and JJ rather than that of J Will, Grant Hill, Laettner, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockPride Posted January 27, 2007 Author Share Posted January 27, 2007 ^ I do think that if things keep progressing as is, Duke is within a championship the season after next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C-A-T-S Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 McRoberts is a guy that was pondering between going pro or going to Duke. I think if he went pro he would have gotten eat up by all the big guys. Even now i do not this he is good enough yet to be in the NBA. so, as of right now i do not think he will be a legend. I personally think he is kind of a bust... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you type that with the following....I bet UK would kill for a guy with a nightly statline like this: Sophomore Josh McRoberts is currently averaging 12.8 points, 8.0 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 2.35 blocks and 1.25 steals per game.

UKMustangFan Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Not even close... FWIW, I don't see him at Duke next season.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEERFAN Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 I don't see it, those stats are nice but not legendary IMO. Solid across the board but give me 18/10/2/1 and I'd put him on a higher level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
