Max Hooper

[monte]

Chris Mullin was one of the best College BB players of his era. Really any era. As a pro, he further demonstrated that his talent was HOF caliber.

Max Hooper will not be in that category.

That being said, all we want from Hooper is the ability to drill the 3 pt jumper, make free throws and be a good teammate. We should not care whether he starts or can play defense or rebound.

If he could average between 8-10 points a game, with the occasional 12-15 points outburst, we will win a lot more games than we did last year.If Max can do that, we can contend for the BE Championship.

We'll see soon.

Agreed with most of what you're saying, but I for one care whether he has enough lateral quickness to play D in our zone. If he can't, those 8-10 points you're proposing will be a drop in the bucket compared to the points opposing teams will score against us when he's on the floor.

we have not had a shooter like this since mullin?
slow down. hooper has not played a game.
I recall dwight hardy being quite the shooter.
i hope he can shoot nearly that well.
lets see him play.
alot of reason of for optimism this season.
i see us as an ncaa team for sure.
however lets not use hooper and mullin in the same sentence. maybe fred lyson. maybe.

Hooper may not belong in the same sentence with Mullin but was it necessary to insult him with the Fred Lyson reference?

8-10 is probably a little too lofty. I think he could have a very big impact if he averaged 5-7.

6.75-9.25 sounds about right to me. With an occasional 10.33 outburst....
