Scotty Hopson

[Dylan Stevens]

09? is he going to prep school?

No he is in the 09 class.

 

[Volsguy12]

why is he playin in this game?

 

[LittleDTO]

I just turned on the game. How did Hopson look? Says he has 8 points.

 

[LittleDTO]

Ok just saw he is at the line.

 

[Volsguy12]

Scotty makin 1 free throw.

 

[No1UtFanJmAn147]

Scotty at the line... Makes first and misses second.

 

[No1UtFanJmAn147]

Fouled again. Will be at the line when commercial break is over... Scotty hasnt got to play and I'm glad hes getting to take it ti the hole.

Jennings as you will learn is very overhyped, as he is nothing more than a poor man's Kenny Anderson.

That isn't even a remotely similar comparison.

 

[No1UtFanJmAn147]

Makes another FT.

 

[No1UtFanJmAn147]

If I was Scotty I would be pissed at the playing time.

 

[Volsguy12]

for real, he came in and got to the foul line twice, then gets yanked.

 

[StunnA N' Orange]

Jrue Holiday again displaying why he'll be a tremendous addition to UCLA next year. Very quick hands on the defensive end.

 

[No1UtFanJmAn147]

Pac 10 loaded up on players from this game.

 

[pricevol5]

That isn't even a remotely similar comparison.

overhyped, undersized point guards who are average outside shooters and care more about flashy passes and their own stats than helping their team win, yeah I'd say it is a pretty good comparison.

 

[Dylan Stevens]

Volsguy, I think your misunderstanding me. Rosario is the kid playing right now that is going to Rutgers. This is the 08 class. Greg Echenique is a player from the 09 class who has committed to Rutgers. Next year will be his sr year of high school.

Jrue Holiday again displaying why he'll be a tremendous addition to UCLA next year. Very quick hands on the defensive end.

For real. Jrue is a lock down player.

 

[Volsguy12]

ahh sorry :good!:

 

[No1UtFanJmAn147]

Jennings scored 63 pts in a game this year.. Have watched him play a couple times on TV.. He is not an average shooter.

 

[No1UtFanJmAn147]

Hmmm Jennings just hit two straight threes.

 

[Titanic]

I know this game isn't really useful for coming to a verdict on one player vs another, but to me I think I'd rather have Hopson than Singleton or Elliot. Mind you this is the first time I've seen any of them playing, but he just seems a bit more explosive than they do.

 

[pricevol5]

For real. Jrue is a lock down player.

I played against Jrue when he was a freshman at a Daytona Beach tournament my junior year, and I was astonished to find out after the game he was only a freshman. His skills, demeanor, and attitude have always been extremely mature.

Jennings scored 63 pts in a game this year.. Have watched him play a couple times on TV.. He is not an average shooter.

Wait until he plays against guys on the next level and tries to shoot over them, he's in for a rude awakening. He may be a better than average shooter, but by no means is he a great shooter. Jennings is not on the same level as Derrick Rose either, not even close.

 

[Dylan Stevens]

Really? That's cool. I was dissapointed seeing that he was on Elliot. But I'm also impressed with Elliots defense. Quicker than I thought he was.

If I were Scotty I'd be pissed about the playing time. When he was in it was pretty much a ball hog fest by his teammates.

 

[pricevol5]

I'm curious to know what Elliots wingspan is. I bet it's at least 6'8, he is LONG. I think if he puts on 15 pounds he can be a lockdown defender even at the NBA level.

 

[Dylan Stevens]

He really is. I was delightfully suprised at his size. He gets to learn some real check d from K next year. That will be great with him replacing the ACC defensive player of the year. And he is a bigger scoring threat than Demarcus.
