    That was great. Thanks for posting it.

    I'm going to disagree with the writer's final statement in the article though. It's not a logical conclusion. Just because Dame is arguably a better NBA talent right now than others in his high school class, does not mean Dame was better than all of them back in high school. He used the same faulty logic when he claimed CJ should have been ranked No. 3 in his high school class, based on how C.J. is playing this season.

    Nope. That's just a dumb statement.

    Dame has focused and worked extremely hard to get where he's at, which makes his accomplishments all the more impressive. Same goes for C.J.
