If shai only shoots 60% from downtown this board will turn on him quicker than the bush family turning on trump. I think he will be every bit as good as lamb is not better since he can actually drive the basketball and chances are he will be atleast a 2 yr player which is something we definitely need after this yr. I just hope he doesn't get frustrated and transfers after 2 years. Frankly, I like this guy a little more than diallo since he can actually shoot the ball. He may not be as explosive but the guy can fill it up and he won't be a one and some guy. He's exactly what we need in a big way. He's a shooter and as we all know you can never have too many shooters!

You think this kid will be "every bit as god as Lamb if not better...?" Mmmkay. We wonder why some fans get frustrated with their own high expectations. Lamb is literally the best 3 point shooter we have ever had, and was better at getting to the basket than you give him credit for. I predict this kid might end up being a contributor, but he ain't gonna be Doron Lamb.

He still has his senior yr to play he will move up in the rankings and could very well be ranked in the 20s by the end of next summer. They say he can drive to the basket at will and we know lamb lacked that. IF the kid is as good of a shooter as advertised he very well could be better than lamb.

I'm not slamming lamb by no means. Without him we don't win in 2012. I'm just saying if he's as good as advertised he could be as good as lamb. I'm also basing this on the idea he will be here more than likely 3 years

I'm just going off what I've seen and read nothing more I'm hoping can shoot like lamb and of course his d can't be any worse. We all know at times lamb would get lazy on d and sometimes on offense. The kid won't start I get that I'm just saying by his sophomore-jr year he could very well be as good as lamb was for us.

I can accept that, not that it matters. Thanks

You had me, then you lost me. Then you had me again. Then you lost me again and on the second time around I was like, "wait....he's doing this on purpose!" but by that time I gave you a like just coz you got me to read that far.

True that, brother. Traffic here is a nightmare. I would strongly urge anyone thinking about moving to Nashville, to reconsider.
I hear ya bud. I worked there and traveled through there quite often in 2013 and it was absolutely tuuuurrrrible.

It's really not that bad compared to any other major city. It's a dream compared to Atlanta. I live in Franklin and come in and out of the city all the time, I don't think it's all that bad.

But I am all for less people moving here.

It's not L.A. or San Fran, but it's still pretty miserable.

I65 is the best route coming in, so it's probably not that bad for you. I40 isn't too terribly bad either, but there's days where it's brutal. I24 is awful every single day. Luckily I don't have to drive that one. Also, it depends on the time of day you're commuting, as you already know. I love Franklin. Almost bought a house over there, but went with Mt Juliet instead. Both are nice areas. May need to grab a beer sometime and watch our beloved Cats. [cheers]
