A head fake, of sorts? Maybe CJ will go in as a decoy to open things up ? Not likely.........CJ may just load up on high doses of Advil and roll.

Agreed, its pretty much nonsense but for some reason people believe it.
Talent gets drafted.

It apparently worked on Xavier Foster.

Sometimes talent isn’t needed to get drafted.
Talen Horton Tucker seemed to have been drafted because he has wide shoulders and long arms. I’m pretty sure it wasn’t because of:
40% FG%
30% 3pt%
62% FT%
11.8 pts per game
4.9 rebs per game
2.3 assists per game.
And often being benched at end of close games due to loose handles and poor shooting.
It’s all about the combine. Great basketball skills AND good athleticism is obviously the key to and NBA career, but if having to choose between basketball skills OR athleticism the athleticism wins every time in the NBA. Probably why I greatly prefer the college game. CJF has great basketball skill and will probably never sniff the NBA.
Sorry got a little rambly.

CJF will 100% get a sniff at the NBA with his shooting and play making ability
Placing bets on message boards?
Why the hell would anyone pay a bet they lost on a message board? It's a waste of time to pretend thats a thing.
Not true, Steph Curry, James Harden, Kyrie Irving.
Those guys are all way more skilled than they are athletic.
Do not play him at MSU —- that’s going to be a physical pounding. Wait one more game.
Every game left is going to be a physical pounding. He needs to come back only if he is totally ready, and I am sure Fran is thinking the same.
You’re right. A Cyclone fan posted on here a few years ago “any takers Mitrou-Long beats Jok in 3 point shooting contest for $100?”. I replied I’d take Jok. Messaged him right before it started saying “we’re still on right?” I was seriously going to pay up had Jok lost but the Clone fan was not man enough to pay up.
Keep him out until he is fully ready. I dont want him coming back for MSU and re-injuring and missing more time. Best case is he comes back for @Ill and the BTT to shake the rust
