I watched him in person against my high school this year. He dropped 40 on us and didnt play the 4th quarter. He is going to be huge to any team that he goes to.
Kentucky, with the greatest basketball stage on earth, with Calipari, with the winningest program ever, with the dribble drive, with a strong shot at a national title, I think is the best choice for the fine young player. Kansas has a good program, but nothing next to KY. Cuz a baby? You better hope he doesn't read that. He already wants to beat Kansas. Smartass remarks like that turned him into a beast against South Carolina. Cuz put the hurts on them and walked away with a huge smile.
im excited about this kid i saw him play at the flyin to hoop in dayton ohio , he is the real deal makes it look so easy. Can easily say with him and stacey poole UK next year will have one of the best if not the best guard combos at the college level in 2010-2011 season
John Wall could have done so much more, but he played within his team, saying that Knight can run the offense as well as Wall, and lead the fast break. It was at the end of games when John WaLL Stopped being a team guy and then did what he wanted..at will. And that won UK a lot of games. Can Knight do that as well? Hopefully he won't have to. He'll let Jones or Kanter do it
true about the top 5 draft picks. and also knight hasnt picked a school yet. he doesnt want to be back up point if wall doesnt leave. calipari is a great coach but knight and wall need to have the ball in their hands to do what they do best. and actually i got knight staying close to home.
@MorbidShadows ur right I think coming out of high school Wall was better.Wall is a pure point who can do everything except score at will because he cant shoot that good.Knight is a scoring point gaurd he doesn't have the qualities of a true point gaurd so it will be interesting to see how he does under Callipari considering Evans,Rose,Wall were all true point gaurds who got their teammates involved.
@xSeven7x McHale is not foreign. Whatever you might say about those goofy Minnesotans, they're still American. Stockton is also American. Nash is from Canada, and thus technically foreign, but Americans only discriminate against Canadians for comedic effect. In conclusion, not all basketball players born in America are black.
excellent shooter, but i barely saw any passing from this man. I can tell you though, if Knight, Jones, and Lamb can stay at Kentucky for at least 2 years, joined together with Teague, and Gilchrist, you can expect a NC from Kentucky.
true but i remember watchin a video of wall saying that his mother wants him to do two years of college. and he said he was really considering it. thats y i said knight will prolly go to kansas. collins is out and knight can be the next pg they need.
wall and knight are both great players. i don't think wall has gotten close to his potential and knight makes it look easy. if he's scoring at will, what more can you ask for?
@mlive81 Well i do live in Kentucky and this is the best basketball program to attend. And to say we did nothing since 98 is narrow minded unless you just consider winning the tourny something. I don't mean to make excuses but we haven't exactly had a coach like Coach K, Bill Self, or Jim Boehiem.
@MorbidShadows Hey MS...Brandon ended up w/ a better Fr season based on his leading them to the FF vs. Wall's G8. Now let's see how their first 5 yrs in the nba compare.
he is another Gilbert Arenas...well minus the Guns or what ever lol but he is a great shooter some people probably not as big of a fan because he is "NOT FLASHY" but when you shoot as well as he does...WHO NEEDS "FLASHY"
@Zeke4TV One reason why he isnt is because he was in the year were Puerto Rican and USA in the finals and made the most embarrassing game for USA in an Olympic game so they limit the Spanish people playing. And sorry race doesent matter. What is the logo of the NBA??? Good white players: Jerry West, Bill Bradley Blake Griffin and Larry Bird. Good black players: Allen Iverson, Jordan, Wade etc Spanish, Carmel,Gasol brothers, Beasley and Carlos Arroyo was good at his time.
@maxbps8 They both had good teams around them, so it being completely knights team cant be said, doron lamb was a big reason why they did as well as they did. On top of that, knights scoring performances in the playoffs were poor at best. Correct me if im wrong. John wall had a star studded team as well though his back court wasnt as talented as knights was. Not to mention as a pg, john wall recorded more assist though i will agree his turnovers were terrible. But a better season is debateable
go check out my new mix. plz. it shows four of the upcoming rookie pgs. kemba, kyrie, jimmer and knight. comment on who you think will be the best in the NBA.
Yeah well your best coach couldn't stop his players from hoisting 25+ bricks from 3. To bad cause they should have taken the trophy this year. And thats coming from a KU fan. I picked UK over KU in my bracket...didn't work out so well. Oh well thats march madness for ya.
Woooow all thses knight haters on hre n jus recently 2 meanin yall must of watched him demolish n da ncaa. 1 for all u calln em a ballhog look at his team n jus chill out he has no choice but to take the shots tht he does, he was the reason it was actually a game. N I mean fr all u tryna boost rivers up rivers shot selection is mre questionable than knights, if yu dnt believe me watch sum of his full games n not jus highlights n I like rivers so I'm not hatin. Bottom line knight is fuckin cold
@mlive81 How on earth do you know that "hands down" he is better? You seen them play one on one or something? I think im gonna believe rivals.com and espn on this one.
he doesnt want to be the next anyone..i think he should go somewhere else like uconn so he could make a name for himself ...not so they can compare him to john wall
ok? it happens, the best players in the world have their bad games every once in a while. (best players meaning pro ballers like in the NBA) i have a feeling people are going to dwell on this for a long time but so what, big deal the bottom line is that this video is about brandon knight so keep your head on the subject at hand the mcdonald's all american game is wed. and we may or may not find out what college he's going to then but still stay on the subject
john wall might stay if he doesnt win a championship so 2 top pgs is not going down...its no way he is going to blue grass. and he cant be like those other gaurds cuz he is more of a shooter. neither evans, rose, or wall could shoot the ball at college
@maxbps8 I am watching the same clip as you are watching above. I am going to agree to disagree with you here bud. While John Wall definitely has room for improvement with his shooting capabilities. Wall's overall speed and ability to make something out of nothing (at this point) is far superior than Knight's. Let's give him a year with Calipari's dribble drive offense and compare notes then. Hopefully Knight develops well :)
