Richards #1 pick?
- Thread starter Myron Gaines
- Start date
He is playing hard and contributing big. Not ready for the NBA lottery yet but is becoming the best story of the BBall year so far. #1 positive for BBN. He sure helped us get past a slow start today.
“You can’t stop him. You can only hope to contain him.”:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
He’s got the wrong style for the NBA now. Everyone on the floor needs the ability to shoot the 3.
Nick has a smooth stroke and is a great free throw shooter. Still struggles some with footwork and hands but has improved 2 fold over the past 2 plus years. Don't think he will be the #1 pick but can be a lottery pick and the best Center in college basketball this season.
I see you like using stupid words like “Cuck” as well. Aren’t you just a swell guy. If you really had to remove the last pic last you said then you’d think you’d be smart enough not to use another pic of the same girl.
He’s more than an X factor. He’s essential. Period.
Best word to describe you. Anyways why u so butthurt about it? Lemme fetch some of that cream for ya...
Richards has a nice shot out to 18’. It’s not that much of a stretch to move it 2 steps out. Plus every player doesn’t have to shoot 3’s. He won’t be a star or probably even a starter in the league. But he can be a 1st rnd pick and play 5-8 years.
Nick was awesome today. He needs to eliminate the 1 or 2 silly fouls he makes every game so he can stay on the floor
Proud of Nick today. He did it all. U6 gave him the confidence to play his best even when we play good teams. He also probably got a lot of love which adds to his confidence. He's now playing loose and not overthinking it. He's just balling and the training is kicking in without him having to think about it too much.
If he keeps playing like he has been consistently I really do think he could be top three pick.
As crazy as that sounds.
He wasn't very good last year so a minute sounds about right.

As I said earlier in the year, Nick is on his way to being a 1st round pick in the draft. He and Quickley may be our best players...certainly our best scoring threats.
A 7 foot big man that has his measurements and skills finally putting it together. Yes as crazy as it sounds based on his past I see why You have doubts, but what I said was if he keeps playing like he has. Double doubles, blocks, Hitting baskets away from the block, playing tough, hitting free throws etc,. Then yes he could Play his way into a top three type of pick with this year’s talent pool.
Still has work to do. Still fouls a lot, makes some bad plays, bobbles the ball. Still has a ways to go but if he keeps it up. Who knows.....
He's played 2 good games. I love him too but this kid was getting pushed around by guards last year, the NBA wouldn't be kind to him.
Our fans seem to have forgotten that players develop over time. Evan Daniels who had him as a 5 star said Richards probably wouldn't be an instant impact kinda guy. Not every player is a bust because they're not great as a freshman. I can understand younger fans with this mindset but older ones shouldn't be surprised Nick is having a good year.
