20/20 hindsight

[Vaughnbama]

Every year Bama Basketball fans love to complain, but I have a legit question to put the perspective on this team. Alabama has 12 ballplayers, but using 20/20 hindsight none would have been offered a scholarship to Kentucky, UNC or Duke. There is no lottery pick on this team. I don’t know if we have a first rounder. All we have is a team.

I think if Petty keeps playing defense like he is, he could be a lottery pick. Herb will play in the NBA, too.

Need to be able to dribble to be a lottery pick. Will not be a first round pick.

His ball handling has greatly improved over the years. I think some are carrying his frosh and soph year struggles over

This is a very good team. No one in the country wants to play Bama right now.

Have you watched the last 5 games? He has been driving and making his shots.

What's the "legit question?"

Petty is listed #86 in the NBA Draft, Herb #54

Step 1 - Have a good tournament appearance
Step 2 - Have a McDyess moment
Step 3 - Profit

In basketball, players are developed in the summer and teams are developed in the Winter. If you watch us, we play a 2 and 3 man game on offense with a lot of 1 on 1 drives to the basket once we spread the defense. That is the NBA game.

I'll take a great team over a great player any day of the week.

Wrong! Petty had a Kentucky offer.
