Better than Danny Ferry or Christian Laettner that's for sure.....just kidding GM but I had to put up with the Ferry stuff as a Cavs fan! But, he's done a great job in the front office.

Yea Cuse, gotta disagree with you there. I think his game is suited before for the NBA level then the college level.

He needs to pick up his scoring a little but with all the talent on those NBA rosters, the maximum he can score with decent playing time would be 10-12 ppg. Think he will be a fine player, gonna enjoy watching him.

Can honestly say that he'll be better than Chris Mims ever thought he would/could be (remember that guy from Texas)! I actually think he'll be half decent....:beerbang:

He has trouble scoring but will be a decent pro. Obviously he will get better on the offensive end, he is tall, athletic and does the little things well that you dont often find big men doing.

I sometimes feel like he just doesnt want to score or take over a game, that has to change. I wish him the best and he wont get eaten a live in the NBA.

Most Duke fans realized this was going to be his last year, I think he went a year too late because his draft stock would have been higher last year.

Hopefully this opens up the door for Patrick Patterson to come to Duke, if we cant get him then Zoubek is going to have to work on his offense and really step up for us next year or else we will be lacking in the middle. It does seem we lack in the middle every year, including in 2001 when we won the title.

As much as I like Josh, the offense may just improve next season.

And before anyone says I'm bashing Duke, I'M NOT. He is clearly not an NBA ready player though. He will get eaten alive in the NBA. When you're 6'10'' and your best attribute is your passing, you got problems on the NBA level.

Ha... :nuts:

Ridiculous.
