Roy is very insecure when it comes to coach K! This is very obvious and how about Roy whining on tv about the calls being in favor of the other team. He was interviewed and was making excuses. I can't remember which game it was, it might had been the DUke game or the championship game. I thought it was Steat from THR doing the interview.
Oh God....this kid is gonna end up going to Harvard and I'm gonna pout for 3 or 4 weeks.Maybe even cry. I want him at Duke SO DAMN BAD.

I think Wendell still comes to Duke. He and Trent have discussed a deal to play together and Harvard isn't on trent's list so the one school they have in common is Duke.
Dammit Show, I love it when you post stuff like that. And to think, I even love that song.
"Go 'head Mr. Wendell". Find something by Terrence TRENT D'Arby and we'll be all set.
This kid is strong, strong trunk, legs. Powerful but very controlled. MY kind of player. LOVE his game.
Gary reminds me a lot of Andre Dawkins. That's part compliment, part concern.
He has tremendous shooting ability, range, and great lift on his shots very similar to Andre.
Also similar, I see a bit of a lack of quickness and lateral movement, that could make him struggle getting his own shot, and struggle defensively. Now I think he is slightly quicker than Andre, so that's good, hopefully he is a lot quicker and creating his own shot and D aren't a struggle.

Christ, just read an article where Carter's mother says She and his father were blown away by Harvard and that they hope he chooses to go there. Wow. Won't let me do the old copy and paste on that site.
He has a better handle, is a better distributor, and is a little quicker. His mentality is also better, but obviously Andre had some circumstances that changed his situation.
The other part is that Trent has been the alpha dog a bit. Andre was always second fiddle (he had Steven Pledger in high school and AAU). Gary plays like an alpha too, but he proved in USA ball that he could play a role as well. The kid would be very nice to have in a Duke uni. Very nice indeed.
To me, he'll be more Austin with a more reliable jumper.
That came out last week before the visit to Duke. We're fine in this recruitment....and trust me, Mrs. Carter loves her some Duke.
I don't think he's the shooter Beal is/was. Beal was on the Ray Allen track there for a minute. Gary is a tier below. Rashad McCants if you will (as much as I hate using that comparison).
McCants could score the ball. He was a gifted player. I think Beal is an overrated shooter personally. I never really bought in to the Ray Allen comparison. Too inconsistent/streaky IMO. I also think Beal was twice the defender Allen was.
I think Trent compares favorable to Beal. JMO.
