Quote
Josh Selby's Athleticism – When Selby was trying to decide whether or not to leave Kansas after his disappointing freshman season, the school did everything they could to keep him for one more season. Apparently, that included convincing others that Selby wasn't nearly as athletic as people thought. School officials had been telling people that Selby wasn't a great athlete and the general consensus was that Kansas did it to lower his draft stock so that he would come back for his sophomore season.

However, that didn't stop Selby from doing everything in his power to prove his athleticism in Las Vegas. He is one of the fastest guards in this class and possibly the best dunker. On Thursday, Selby had everyone in attendance circled around one basket as he put on a dunk show. He threw down a 360 between the legs dunk and afterwards told me, "That was my first time ever trying that." Selby is a phenomenal athlete and I wouldn't be surprised if he won a dunk contest at some point during his career.

i really wish he had the stones to stay in school for another year, would have been fantastic to watch spradling dominate him at least two more times.

Yes Tardville is back up on their high horse (per usual) calling out the "journalism" community.

Coach Seff would never, ever, ever, ever engage in such actions . . . eva.

So when he goes in the top 15 will tardville gloat about having "another top draft pick"? Even though they did everything possible to ruin his career?

All over the AAU circuit now. If you want to play in NBA, don't play for Bill Self because he will trash your skills to NBA Scouts.
