Sounds about right. He should have a big year and is already on the NBA radar. His size, shooting ability, and length will help him in the draft.

I agree. Also, next year's draft shouldn't be near as deep as this year's.

:lol: :lol: Shake is a better NBA prospect than Semi and next years draft shouldn't be near as deep. But still, sounds about right.

Shake didn't take that next step his 2nd year like many expected. With Semi gone, Shake will need to be more consistent on offense and carry the team. If that happens, he definitely can be a 1st rounder.

Didn't take that step? You're effin kidding, right?

- moved to PG seamlessly
- ended up best PG in league
- Assist to t/o ratio was good.
- PG on league regular season and tourney champs
- Led team to most wins in school history.

Becoming a PG in scouts eyes destroys everything. Look at the draft this year, 5 or 6 of top 11 were PGs

Leading SMU to a NCAA championship would do wonders for his draft status.

No, I'm not effing kidding. He was incredibly inconsistent and was passive in many instances. Please don't say led team to most wins in school history...he wasn't the leader of the team last year. And without the gift that is Semi, we wouldn't have won the conference, regular season or tourney.

I think I can agree with both of your arguments. Shake made the move to PG very well, had a real good assist/TO ratio, shot well, and was pretty clutch when we needed a big shot. I can also agree that Shake was inconsistent at times (based on how good Shake is).

He took a step forward last year no doubt, but wasn't to college superstar status, where I think he can/should get to next year. It is going to be his and Jarrey's team next year. Shake has been putting in the work this offseason.
