****Kansas City vs Iowa Game Thread****

I was at the game and i liked Rebracha he was very efficient down low on offense when he got the ball reminded me of Sabonis from Gonzaga
 
Perkins and Toussaint don't play the same position, so....
That’s not what I said. I know they don’t. I said unlike Touissant, who he was comparing his struggles to, Perkins doesn’t really have a defined skill-set. He’s just a gritty, tough, hard worker. He’s like a smaller Eric May but maybe even less skilled.

Touissant has a pretty defined skill-set and you could see it even when he struggled. Perkin you can’t really see what “skills” he has other than being a tough, gritty kid.

I want Perkins to do well - I was hoping he would step-up to be the starting SG this year.
 
Not really. He showed hustle, grit, and tenacity. He doesn’t have the skill-set Touissant does. He doesn’t have a good shot, his handle is suspect, his passing isn’t anything special we gave seen. At this point, he’s a hustler.
Really.

You just don't know what to look for.

I do.

Just trust me and you'll be better off.

Oh, I know. You have already proven quite often you don’t. You are incapable of having objective reasoning due to your biases.

Difference between you and I is that I’m ok with being wrong - I want Perkins to be good and succeed. You just want to be right.

There is a place for Perkins in the rotation because of his toughness, athleticism, and defense. But if he wants to be the starting SG, he needs to improve his overall skill -set - shooting, ball handling, decision-making. Otherwise, he’s not much different than CMac, who plenty like to complain about - a spot minute role player who can bring some positives off the bench in certain situations.

Your opinion of me is neither reality based or relevant. I think you accused me of not liking Frans family or something last week. Just pure imaginary nonsense.

I've not once, since the season started, said I believe Perkins is playing well or deserves more time.

My claim that he's pressing due to lack of PT doesn't have anything to do with his skill set in comparison to JT. That has no relevance.

Perkins did flash some impressive skills/athleticim last year. That happened. Whether or not you remember it changes nothing.

Whether or not that in fact happened has nothing to do with reasoning. Im not making an argument that requires reasoning, im making a statement about past occurances. The counter argument you're attempting to shoe horn in this conversation is simply incoherent.

It doesn't pertain to anything in regards to what I wrote.

You're trying to hard to get me. Its silly.

Somebody get Aidan shaw on the phone and let him know that if he doesn’t want to lose to bottom tier summit league teams he can rip up his LOI and come to Iowa
