Coach wouldn't elaborate on a lot of details publicly which I can understand since he hasn't enrolled yet and won't until August because of the FIBA tournament in late July. He's also from Greece, a teammate of Niko, who by the way, is also playing this summer in that same tournament, described only as a very talented 6-11 kid who can play. This 6'11 kid looks to have an outside shot.

I think Ross knows how to use this type of Big man in his system.

If it's the kid I think you're talking about, yes, he is quite talented, athletic, plays hard and is quick for a 6' 11" guy. If we can get him, it would be a huge get and I think we would definitely have a roster that could compete to win the conference.

A better coach could have fixed this bad habit. Harry had enough skills to be coached up to play well in this conference.

Why would you assume I've never seen him play, obviously we all have the internet. then say you've seen him play, if you have. i only asked you how do you know that he has an outside shot if you've never seen him play? so okay, you've seen him play, correct? even though you don't know his name? i mean, clearly you must also know his name if you have "allegedly" seen him play. i mean, just saying he plays on a certain team doesn't mean you know which team member he is. look, all i did was ask a simple question. if you've seen him play, then saying you've seen him play answers the question. what's so hard about that?
