racer4life Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 UCONN and Oklahoma are nothing special. They are both good teams, but a far cry away from the top. I agree they could have beaten both of those teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cshs81 Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 How is Stevenson getting better? All he could do last year was dunk and all he can do this year is dunk (and that's not even always successful). He's too skinny to guard in the post and he can't score from more than 3 feet from the basket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beleiveinblue54 Posted January 22, 2008 Author Share Posted January 22, 2008 I'd say he can shoot better. Last year his shot was bad. This year i've seen him hit a few. Plus he came to UK as a defensive guy, not an offensive guru. He is showing more authority too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's too skinny to guard in the post and he can't score from more than 3 feet from the basket. He can actually hold on to the basketball, and even dribble sometimes. He's not a superstar by any stretch, but he is getting better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we're not measuring by using Division 1 basketball standards. We're measuring by high school fundamentals standards. Nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cshs81 Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 I'd say he can shoot better. . I have yet to see him hit a jumper this year. If you're saying his misses aren't as ugly, well..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobaar Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 So we're not measuring by using Division 1 basketball standards. We're measuring by high school fundamentals standards. Nice. No, I'm judging by how good Stevenson was at the start of the year, and how good he is now. He is better now, hence "getting better." He's far from great, maybe not even good, but he is better, which was the discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we agree he's not gotten "Good enough" to be a factor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
