I hope somebody had a camera on him tonight because that would be some highlight tape. 3's, dunks, bullin' down the lane, tip-toe'n down the baseline, ripping down rebounds. Making some fantastic passes, including about 3 balls off the big guy's hands that would have been an easy 2 points. By far the best game I've seen him have and one of the best I've seen at EYBL this year.
Louisville has a lot going for them too...
Are we really bringing up this conversation again?! It's ok to compare the style of an nba player to the style of a high school kid. If I say he reminds me of draymond green it means he is a do it all forward you plas great defense. Not that he is a nba champion and all star... people should easily understand that. Or should we start comparing high school kids to other high schoolers that know one has a clue about?

If the Fire had Okoro they'd be 7-3 or better instead of 3-7. The Irvins keep using their perimeter game with a couple of bigs who just rebound and clean up -- that works well in high school, but when they use those same bigs (and 2 of their 3 bigs are from MP and the other is an Ohio kid who is over 300 pounds, can't jump and has hands of stone) against d1 level kids, it just doesn't work. Ayo, THT and Demarius Jacobs do the perimeter part great, but inside it's a disaster against a team with a guy like Liddell. And most EYBL teams have high d1 bigs. Burrell is the best the Fire have and he's MAC level. The guy they relied on last year (Henry) signed with Northern Arizona. Just not the same level of talent.
