never saw either of them play before Duke.Gile preinjury was described as best high school player in years.Bagley is described as a generational player.Just curious who was considered better?
Giles vs Bagley
- Thread starter topps coach
- Start date
I would have to say Bagley and only because I never really got see a healthy Giles play, which is a shame. The things I have seen Bagley do as a high school player, I have never seen any high school player do in recent memory, maybe since what Lebron could do in high school. When I watched highlights on YouTube of Marvin in the Drew League going up against the likes of Demar Derozen and Javale McGee, my mouth dropped to the floor. To have him at Duke is still almost surreal to me. Lol.
Does anyone think that Bagley can put up Jahlil Okafor numbers in his 1 year with Duke? I am a Syracuse can and I don't follow Duke that closely.
Thanks.
Thanks.
A group of us go to Myrtle Beach every May and golf, and one of the guys that goes has a kid that grew up with Giles. The kid told me that Giles could dunk in the 6th grade and was unbelievable. Very nice kid, but to make it worse, he goes to the University of South Carolina. He said what Duke fans said, that it was a shame we didn't even have a shell of him that we wanted. In his opinion, Giles was better than Tatum, which I read an article saying the same thing
Bagely is more skilled, fluid and agile. Healthy Giles would have been more explosive.
I don't remember who it was, but I heard a guy on the radio who was a coach from somewhere who said that Giles was the best high school player he had ever seen....ever. His exact words were.....I didn't get to see Lebron in person in high school, but Giles is the best high school player I have ever seen in person
I do. And with Carter next to him teams will be unable to double team as much as they did with Okafor.
I think he can do one thing Jah did.....hang a banner!!!
