April 10, 200818 yr Author It's still an opportunity to showcase some ability...if nothing else, scouts should get an idea of a players athletic ability, defensive ability (when they choose to play defense:lol:), and their ability to create shots. Obviously, it's not going to give you a complete picture of a player, but still a lot of information on a guy. I didn't mean there is anything bad about it, but it is what it is. This tourney is perfect for one or two types of players: 1) a player that hustles every minute of every game (ie Chuck Hayes) 2) a player that can create his own scoring opportunities (ie Joe Crawford) Players that require screens to get open shots, etc. are most likely not going to shine in this format.

I didn't mean to imply that you did. I was just adding something to the discussion... Why is everyone so defensive on here? Where is the love?

April 10, 200818 yr What is up with Ramel's foul shooting? 2-6? Come on he shot 80% or above during the season.
April 10, 200818 yr You can read some of the reviews of a guy at the camp on Ramel and Joe over on Matt Jones website.

April 11, 200818 yr What is up with Ramel's foul shooting? 2-6? Come on he shot 80% or above during the season. Looks like he bounced back today from the foul line. He finished 9-9.
April 11, 200818 yr Author I'm encouraged that Joe was 2-3 from the NBA 3-point line. That would be big for him if he can prove that he can knock down that NBA 3. I think he is going to get drafted in the 2nd round.
