My statement that a couple of games at the beginning of the season doesnāt make a Top 5 draft pick? OK, sure - letās revisit that.
Thatās all Iāve said. Sorry thatās triggering, but I guarantee you Sampson would tell you exactly the same thing if you ask him today if Kingston is getting drafted.
Yesā¦ letās revisit thenā¦
Some of us have an eye for talent and some of us just have eyesā¦
Of course you realize Iām just teasing you at this pointā¦

He could jump out of the gym long before he got to Houston or Bishop.

My bet is Fleming has way more games like this than ones that make us think he went into witness protection.

Well sure - heās a better player with a higher ceiling.
While a lot of people were in here theorizing about the lineup and where he would fit in the rotation, I was saying I thought he would start along with Uzan and that Uzan might end up playing a slightly different role.
Granted, this is all happening sooner than I expected - looking forward to seeing the progression on the road against better opponents.
Iāve never seen a young player like that come in and be so fundamentally solid. Big fan after 3 games and an exhibition.

His court vision and passing accuracy are off the charts for someone so new to the college game. His passes, even cross court, hit shooters perfectly in their shooting positions. Add in his athleticism and ability to attack the paint and even @Pollardsvision may have been underselling Flemings.

And sell popcorn in the stands during time outs!!!
Opposing teams are going to have to specifically scheme to stop him, which is pretty wild for a dude playing his first games out of high school.

I remember Demeco Ryans blew his out and then still had a lot of good years in the NFLā¦
But you never knowā¦
And some people just heal betterā¦
I tore the ligament that holds your tibia and fibula together in my right ankle and it would swell up after long runs or being on the beach for years afterā¦
If evaluating a players talent level is looking at how many points they scored then sure, itās possible Flemings will have off nights shooting the ball as a freshman. On the other hand if youāre looking at the overall talent level thereās really no comparison to TAā¦ or anyone else on the team. His passing and ability to see the whole floor, the way he manages the team as a leader, ability to get to the rack whenever he wants, overall athleticism, defensive tenacity, and confidence are exceptional.
Letās not go back to this thread every time he doesnāt score 20+ points or commits a few turnovers. Thatās a given for anyone, not just a true freshman.

The kid is remarkedly talented and Iām glad we got the chance to see him play. Looks to be already taking over the team.

Oh, Iām quite sure when he has a couple of bad games the posters with no clue will throw rocks from the sidelinesā¦.but Iāll just consider the source.
I canāt wait until his āthree point shootingā drops below 40% and then I read āsee this is why I was concerned ā
