2 games in a row Wiseman has played all out and looked great. all 7 times I've seen him before that he looked like he was half azzing it and not aggressive at all so I was not impressed at all but if he plays like this all year next year..... he's going to dominate the AAC.

You didn't know he was 7'0"-7'1"? Like every publication and every scout has ever mentioned?

Yes...almost exactly like every publication and every scout had ever mentioned from the beginning of mentioning about his size yes. He just seemed bigger watching him. I had not seen him interviewed next to others.

Its not that. Its that he just looks bigger on tv than youd expect him to look. For example, Richards is a 7 footer and 245lbs. He does not look near as big and as imposing as Wiseman whos maybe an inch taller and about the same weight. Wiseman looks massive compared to other large human beings. It's like an optical illusion or something. Probably his hair that makes him look like he's 7'4 or something.

it's because his wingspan is 2 inches longer and he has better timing for not only blocking but changing shots. You notice that ****. Richards just has pretty average timing for blocking and altering shots.

No hes definitely a better player. Im just saying I get where the other posters coming from saying he looks bigger than expected. We see 7 footers on tv all the time but he took me by surprise being as physically imposing as he is. Had I not known his listed size of 7'1 I wouldve guessed 7'3 easily. I dont know how to explain it. Like how shaq and dwight howard were only about 2 inches apart in height but shaq just looked like he was a whole head taller?

I can't say I understand. I see things how they are, not how others want me to perceive em of even how my own mind might wanna perceive em.

Stuntin is a habit. Git like me.

Richards needs to concentrate on two things, blocking shots and rebounding with two hands. Even at the end of the season when he did get to play he would go up with one hand and lose the ball out of bounds or have it taken away. Sorry to hijack the thread but reading about Wiseman and Richards got me thinking about what Richards can do to help the team next year.

I watched one game maybe is SO or JR year and was not that impressed. Penny is not a good coach he may get the talent but he will not last lone at Mehphis

Lol yeah that one game you saw he wasn't impressive..... Why the hell do all the scouts have him ranked as the best player? They must not have watched that one game you saw.

Everyone still talking about Wiseman and his stuffed unicorn. Will be bad as Duke getting threw around here next season.. About how we could be this and that, how Cal can't do it no more, etc.. You know how RR gets about something like that..

Not saying anything about Wiseman's game or anything of that nature, because i know it and his potential. But that 2019 class is very very weak..

Like I said it was on game and it's my opinion. You dont like the scroll right past my reply. Scouts get it wrong too. Look all the Duke players in the NBA. Most are garbage
