<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Strengths: A true inside outside threat ... Is equally adept with his back to the basket or when facing up to the hoop ... Lefty has a solid mid range game with a reliable jumper that extends as far out as the three point line ? A dunking machine. Will throw down any and every chance he gets ? Unlike most players Josh?s size, he can put the ball on the floor and shows tremendous court vision and a nice passing touch ? Runs the floor well for a big man and always seems to be in the right place at the right time for monstrous putbacks ? Always gives full effort and never takes plays off? Excellent rebounder due in large part to his aggressiveness ? Very tough, a warriors mentality on the court ? High basketball IQ guy who will make an immediate impact in Durham ? Weaknesses: Has good footwork but isn?t quick enough to play anywhere but the post at the next level ? His foot speed and athleticism wont stand out on the next level ... Though he has incredible instincts and feel for the game having played as a guard early in his high school career, some of those attributes are lost because he lacks the quickness and foot speed to get by players off the dribble on the next level ... Though he does have his moments blocking shots and making stops, he isn?t known as a defensive presence ? Also must become more disciplined defensively as he can be foul prone ...</div>Compared to a less athletic Chris WebberI really think McRoberts is overrated. I couldn't see him going in the top twenty. If he gets into the NBA, he will be no more than a role player, and I really don't expect him to ever start. Someone with the same role as Stromile Swift, who doesn't deserve to start.
I think he's overrated as well. I never saw him being that good. I think that he's wayy over hyped. I'd be shocked to see him be anything more than mediocore in the NBA.
Seems like every time I've watched him play he hasn't been that great. I've never really been that fond of him in the first place.
Yeah! Carmel, IN guy!Anyway, this guy is a lottery pick.I could see him averaging 15 ppg 8 rpg 2 bpg 1 spg 3 apg on a pretty good team. He will be decent borderline all-star guy, maybe like a taller Al Harrington who can play D.What sticks out about him is his versatility and passing ability. Both of those aspects are surperior for someone of his height and posistion.
I think he is the most overrated player in college basketball last year he had a sensational year and there was much talk about him about how good he would be in the NBA draft. But this year he has really underacheived and is having just a horrible season at Duke where he should be the leader of the team. It just really hasn't worked out for him this season but maybe he will improve late in the season.
