Tyreke Evans

[Bob in Houston]

I guess the theme is, be careful what you wish for.

In Memphis's two losses, he's shot 4-for-16 and 8-for-24. A cool 30 percent.

It doesn't help that is jumper is hideous to begin with. I felt bad for him in the G-town game. I could tell his teammates were getting a little fed up with him constantly shooting every time he touched the ball.

 

[Bob in Houston]

Yeah, he's focused on taking over. Maybe he's doing it in practice, but to me, he just looked out of control.

I wasn't sad to see him not in the burnt orange yesterday, that is for sure.

Especially considering he is highly likely to be a 1 and done guy I'm not sad we missed out on him.

I'm not opposed to a 1 and done if they are like KD and fit into the team concept. I have no desire to see a guy like that or OJ Mayo that is involved in a 1 year NBA audition.

Maybe that's harsh but it's what I saw.

Sometimes you win with the 1 and done (Derrick Rose) and sometimes you lose (Tyreke Evans). Evans looks way more selfish than Mayo ever looked to me last year.

I wonder how high he'll even get drafted. I don't see much in his skill level to think he'll be a lottery pick.

I don't know if any of you saw the recent special report that was done on Evans by ESPN. That ESPN 60 show or whatever. I watched that and saw him pick Memphis, but by the time it got to his choice in the report I kept thinking how glad I was he didn't pick Texas.

2 or 3 really good drafts in a row, so I guess that we were due for a weak draft. College hoops is big time down, accross the board, from what I've seen so far this year...
