[QUOTE="Jacket Forever, post: 400288, member: 2438"] I think you’re right about Ben. I like Ben but the bald-headed truth is that he has an engineer’s brain as well as an engineer’s athleticism too. There’re worse things hecould be than an engineer of course, and I suspect since December, thatwhere his future lies. (Question: Has Ben ever REALLY expressed interest in playing in the league?) As for JO, ironically he might end up benefiting greatly as a result of Jose’s unfortunate injury. From everything I’ve seen, Josh is on the bubble between the 2018 NBA Draft 1st Round and it’s 2nd Round. 1st Round is guaranteed ( 3 years) contract money. 2nd Round is not guaranteed money. Also, once a player declares for draft and the April 29 deadline passes, said player cannot return to college for any remaining eligibility even if he goes undrafted. All that said JO may be more inclined to leave college if his 1st Round status is higher and more certain. Hell, I couldn’t blame him. While he is not a ‘natural’ or an NBA PG, he didn’t do badly at all running the point against Duke in the second half. He’ll do through the end of the season. We only had 10 turnovers the whole game, only one more than CJP’s target max of 9 per game. I suspect that he’ll mostly play the point now that Jose is gone for the season. I THINK JO playing the point may help better trigger his offensive game, getting him to the lane, the rim——and to the line ——more than if he doesn’t play the point. That will net him even better performances and more notice to NBA Scouts even if he is on a struggling team. My theory anyway. I right now, if I were a betting man, I’d bet JO bolts for the NBA and declares for the draft at season’s end. [/QUOTE]
