The reason Lofton never went to the NBA

[miggy4vols]

He signed a recording contract. I was listening to my ipod a few days ago, and a song comes up by Drake. I'm looking at the album artwork, and I notice Drake has a scary resemblance to Chris Lofton. Anyone else notice this or have I lost my mind? Maybe both.

I guess these are kind of threads we have to look forward to now since signing day is over...

you know this is going to end up in another heated debate about lofton and the nba right? good job:good!:

Chris Lofton didnt go the the association b/c he was slow and could not create his own shot.

I love the guy and he was a lights out shooter, but those are the facts.

Small resemblance, yes. Scary resemblance, no!

I'm with you, I had the crazy idea that it could possibly be something about CL. Now if this was called "Chris Lofton looks like Drake", nobody cares and nobody looks.

 

[YankeeVol]

Not that close

ehh stretchin a bit. Don't really see it here.

Yeah he could. He was the master of the lean back 3 - he couldn't create his own open shot maybe.

But it had more to do with his defense than his ability to create a shot 1v1.

 

[golfballs]

yeah, they look similar

he could absolutely create his own shot in college, in the NBA i have my doubts and that along with his speed and quickness as well as D are what has kept him out. IMO

 

[zjcvols]

And he was a 6'0 guard with a lack of quickness.

 

[underscore]

I saw a girl go up to Kenny Hall once at Copper Cellar on the strip and call him Bobby Maze. He asked if they all looked the same to her?

Kenny Hall looks like 50 Cent to me.

CLo is easily a Vol favorite, but his dad's hat is freaking legendary.

I agree to a point. When I said he was slow I was more referring to the defensive side of the ball. I just doubt that he could create anything in a 1 on 1 league like the NBA.

Totally agree with all of this.

True is true.
