[QUOTE="NeaforThree, post: 1391184, member: 687255"] Jeez, we gave the guy all the opportunities to succeed in the world and frankly, he stunk in B1G play. I was not impressed with his athleticism either that so many others are saying will make him great if he develops at Mizzou. He was SO DAMN SLOW when I saw him play, like he looked incredibly stiff out there. Every time he would bull rush the basket in B1G play, when he realized he couldn't just overpower players like he did in HS he just threw the ball away or got stuffed. I can't recall a play where he ever really amazed me with his hops or finishing ability. Granted he does seem incredibly strong for his age but that's a trait more essential for a small or power forward, not from a guy who wants to be our "point guard" lmao Rewatch some games this year and pay attention to how fluid and quick Frazier is on the court compared to how sluggish MS looked in B1G, now THATS what we need from our lead guard.
