Show Transcript
SHE DOESN’T. BUT WE’RE EXCITED. >> THE NBA DRAFT IS JUST 3 DAYS AWAY. THIS WEDNESDAY. THERE’S A CHANCE FOR NUMEROUS FOLKS WITH LOCAL TIES TO HEAR THEIR NAMES CALLED ONE OF WHICH IS A THREE-YEAR STARTER AT DUKE, TYRESE, PROCTOR. BUT WORLEY BE PICKED AND WHAT IS HIS ROLE IN THE NBA COLLEGE BASKETBALL ANALYST CHRIS. BUT HOLA BREAKS IT ALL DOWN. >> LET’S TALK ABOUT TYRESE, PROCTOR. I THINK HE’S PROBABLY IN EARLY SECOND ROUND PICK. AND I THINK HIS SIZE, HIS LENGTH AT THE POSITION THAT HE’S GOING TO HAVE TO PLAY HELPS HIM. I THINK TO DEVELOP MEAN HE HAS MADE DEFENSIVELY. AND HE GOT MUCH BETTER THIS YEAR. I DIDN’T. I THOUGHT HE WAS A LIABILITY AT TIMES LIKE WHEN YOU MATCH THEM UP, FOR EXAMPLE, LAST YEAR AGAINST A HUNTER SALLIS. I DO. IT’S ALICE TOOK ADVANTAGE OF HIM. I DO. PROCTOR WAS MUCH BETTER. >> HE NEEDS TO BE THAT HE NEEDS TO BE A 3 AND THE PLAYERS AND A PLAYER THAT WHEN HE COMES IN OFF OF OFF AN NBA BENCH, HE’S NOT GOING TO HURT THE TEAM. IN OTHER WORDS, TYRESE PROCTOR TO ME HAS TO BUY INTO DREW HOLIDAY OR DERRICK WHITE. THE OTHER QUESTION WITH HIM IS. OUR TEAMS ARE GOING TO DRAFT HIM TO POTENTIALLY PLAY THE 2. HE DIDN’T PLAY THE POINT GUARD THIS YEAR FOR A TEAM THAT DESPERATELY NEEDED ONE BY THE END OF THE SEASON. I HAD A COUPLE OF THEIR DUES EARLY GAMES THIS YEAR. AND I REMEMBER SAYING THE BEST THING HE DOES IS CATCH AND SHOOT. AND THEN OVER THE COURSE OF THIS SEASON, HE BECAME MUCH MORE EFFICIENT SHOOTING THE BALL OFF OF THE DRIBBLE. I THINK WE’LL HAVE TO CONTINUE TO NEED TO DEVELOP THAT. THAT TO DEVELOP THAT. BUT THAT’S THAT’S NOT WHAT HE’S GOING TO BE ASKED TO DO. YOU KNOW, HE’S NOT GOING TO BE ONE OF THOSE GUYS WHO’S CREATING UNLESS IT’S LATE SHOT CLOCK CREATING OFF THE DRIBBLE. BUT OFFENSIVELY, THAT’S THAT’S, YOU KNOW, SOME THINGS HE’S GOING TO HAVE TO CONTINUE TO DEVELOP. AND SO I THINK THAT’S ULTIMATELY IN TERMS OF WHERE HE’S TAKING A BEAUTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER. WHAT DO YOU VALUE OF TYRE SOMEWHERE?
