You are not even remotely close to playing in our league. The exploration you did last off season is now comical. Please forward this on to Vince Edwards as well.

Note from the NBA to Caleb Swanigan...
- Thread starter RegionWarrior101
- Start date
He is a good 5 star player being doubled and the focus of Louisville. I wouldn't judge him by this game. Haas on the other hand is just slow and outmatched.
This is good competition for sure. Like the competition you may find in? The NBA. Want to get paid? Be the best player on the court. Equally as impressed with Vince's strong effort of 0 points.
CS working his butt off. Only other energy is CE and BS. In NBA he won't be surrounded by slow dudes that can't shoot.
In the NBA he will be the slow dude that can't shoot.
The guy had a double double going 1 on 3 the whole game. Rebounds and one of best 3 point shooters on team. He is not our problem.
No he's not our problem. One of our best actually, but he's a long way from an NBA lock.
Caleb can stay all 4 years and probably won't improve his draft stock, in fact the longer he stays may hurt him. Seriously, why post a dig at Caleb like that? If he wants to leave after this season let him, it's his decision. At this point he is at best a very late first round pick, most likely early/mid second round, probably the same thing next year.
Seriously, stop knocking our best player. If you knew anything about basketball, you would not write shit like this. You are not understanding the game you are watching. It's embarrassing really. Just stop.
Reality isn't allowed in threads made by posters like the OP that only show up after losses.
Perhaps late first rounder, Caleb will never wow NBA scouts, however, with his desire he'll play in the league a long time! He'll leave after the season, you know what, if that's his dream good for him!
I just don't get the star treatment, slurp fest. How he thought he was a first round pick and danced the NBA thing until the 11th hour with his agent/guardian. He did not have a FG tonight until there were 7, SEVEN minutes left in the game. Did you see that? 33 minutes with no baskets from the field. Six turnovers? If we have a "lottery" pick he needs to play better in big games.
He's not a lottery pick but is far and away our best player. Not his best game, but he is still a very good college player and a likely 1st rounder next year. However, he is not dominant and the supporting cast is suspect, so it should help us to realistically set expectations for this year. Another 4-5 B1G finish and probably a March exit in round 2.
I agree with the assessment. Best player but I was hoping for more dominant. See a really special talent. Any other player under Keady/Painter era doesn't get so much leeway- pull a guy after a TO. Not "Biggie" and that I don't get.
I am also 100% with you on the season finish. Kind of sucks to figure out your ceiling byNovember 30. Personnel is what it is.
Like my old coach said, "you are never as bad as your worst game and never as good as your best." Biggie has barely played a little over a year of college ball and is still learning. He had a bad game. However, his work ethic could get him to and keep him in the League. Brian Cardinal carved out a good career due to hard work. I think Biggie will to as long as he is healthy. I still think he could put this team on his back and carry it far in the tourney.
Sure glad you aren't coaching the team. Jeeze! Pull your best player after his first TO? He was double teamed in the post with two guys his height. They also played to deflect passes into the post, so it was difficult to get him the ball.
In the second half, we figured out their defense. Too late to win this game, but useful later I suspect.
