Deivon Smith

[Joedib]

Every time I open a thread with just the recruits name I get this immediate sense of dread.

You are not alone!

 

[Joedib]

Really at this point, what he did his first two years is irrelevant. Players improve as he did and Wilcher will this year. Especially regarding a stat like A:TO it's often something that gets better with maturity.
He plays very fast so I'm sure he'll have some turnovers/offensive fouls and the like but that A:TO ratio the last two years is fabulous so not worried. I think he and Scott are going to be huge additions.

I am just glad we have someone to cover the small speedy guards that destroyed us last year.

 

[Mullins Revenge]

Hope he can take the torch from our best player last year and continue the steller point guard play we saw from jenkins.

 

[Larry Wright]

You think Daniss dribble improved that much or just your perception of him?

Looked like made a concerted effort to get others involved middle to end of season.

Maybe change the title to “ Smith- not the usual St John’s Bad News “

You don’t take the torch from an NIT team. You use it to burn the whole thing down and start anew.

The animus for ads is is sad and inexplicable. He gave his all here, was a leader, and st least Pitino thinks he is and was very special. Leave Jenkins alone already. It’s tiring at this point.

I think the overwhelming majority of posters enjoyed and admired Daniss's contributions. He wasn't perfect but we certainly would have been lost without him. I for one hope he sticks to an NBA roster after summer league play.

He did his best here last season and as you do correctly said we would have been lost without him. Not sure why we can’t all wish him well and move on ? SMH.

ADS?

Sorry, Daniss.

 

[MattyHoops]

Daniss was fantastic. Really impressed with how he developed throughout the year. He got better- which is a huge testament to him and the staff. If he made one of those buzzer beaters, there would be unanimity amongst 99.9% of the board (though it's close to that anyway).

Let’s keep the focus on Deivon here.
