jamar samuels at the...."3"

[fatty fat fat]

did you see that stroke? 

[treysolid]

he gave us a preview in the missouri game also.

thing of beauty.

Dude has a surprisingly sweet shot.  Would be very nice for us if he was to really spend some time on his outside game in the off-season.

[pissclams]

he's 6'7", its not like we got Shaq out there stroking 3's.  he also likes to shoot them from the top of the key and not from the free throw extended.  i wonder if he's 

[FHSU92]

If he can hit from outside, he could be kinda like CMart with an inside game.

if you are talking solely about range, then i agree.  Sams is alot more judicious in his shot selection tho.

Sure, work on the stroke.  But at the same time put on 20# and develop a post move or two.  Watch a bunch of Massey video.

Post moves would be nice, but I;m not sure how effective a 6'7" PF will be for us next year.  Thinking he made to really develop his all around game if he hopes to ever play more than like 15 minutes a game.

Why surprising? His shot is probably the most "textbook" on our team.

Surprising because I think I've only seen him attempt two 3s.  Seems like a dude with a sweet stroke like that would attempt a few more.

Imagine the shear athleticism of Sutton, Samuels, Judge all on the floor together!  

[Skycat]

He played at the 3 along side Kent and one of the other bigs in both the and aTm games.  I was pretty surprised to see all those guys on the floor together at the time.

[Panjandrum]

The only reason that I don't like him playing the three is because I want him around the rim for offensive rebounding.

You can do that from the wing, but I'd rather him be under the rim after one of the guards chucks it rather than he be the one doing said chucking.

Samuels will never be similar to Cartier from three point range...

I wish though.

I think if we ask JamSam to play the perimeter he'll be a slightly better version of Quenton Buchanan.  Dude is a paint player, but a face up paint player.  If he can stretch to hit the 3; fine, but the bulk of his points are going to be finishing in the paint, cleaning up the trash, and from the FT line.

Nice.  I love how the ESPN analysts (Fran) love to rave about Griff being different then Mike/Durant because of the fouls he draws...

Don't limit anyone to the paint.  I hope he shoots like 500 3's a day this summer.

Beasley:  8.0 fouls drawn/40 min.
Griffin:  8.2 FD/40

Top Freshman  With that being said, I really hope he gets better at the line. He hit him when they counted against ISU though.

did not (at all) expect lyons to be at the top of that list.  his talking point reputation is softness.

True, and honestly I was thinking Massey shot a few more threes (only 7 attempts his 2 seasons). 

Just saying I see his game developing more into a smaller, athletic PF (Massey or even Tucker from UT) than a bigger SF (like Cartier).
