Pretty accurate besides questioning his defense. He doesn't drive enough or particularly well.

Of all the guys who I've seen play against Cal, the guy who surprised me the most with his NBA success is James Harden. I didn't think he'd be nearly this good. Thompson is surprising as well, but mostly because he changed from a defensive non-entity to a pretty good defender.

easily Jrue, westbrook, and love. Thought they would contribute in the NBA but WOW. Also thought Darren Collison was a solid college player who would play overseas.

I'm surprised how well Damian Lillard this year.

Jorge just dominated him, and that was the only time I saw him.

Go Bears!

IIRC, it was actually Cobbs that shut him down.

IIRC, Cobbs' great shutdown game was against the star of UCSB, about whom it was being said he might play in the NBA. Can't recall his name...

Anyone? Help us out!

Go Bears!

probably Orlando Johnson, the biggest name at UCSB the past several years.

Thanks, Beary White.

Cobbs used his impressive strength quite effectively against the bigger guy.

Go Bears!

Ah, I think you're right!
