the problem with DJ playing defense isnt his athletic ability. 3 or 4.

“Watching Ron Artest (who outweighs Damion by around 30 pounds) play defense convinced me that Damion can (at some point after serious effort) guard NBA small forwards fine.”

I just realized that I already specified that Damion would be guarding an NBA small forward so maybe I did not understand HJ’s question after all (i.e. what does Jordan Hamilton have to do with guarding NBA small forward’s next year?).

I’m pretty sure that HJ was making a good point because Trips credited him with an assist (but I don’t actually get the point, I’m ashamed to admit).

HJ or Trips, could you explain what Jordan Hamilton had to do with my point?

HJ:
I meant to talk about Damion guarding small forwards in the NBA. For sure he is playing power forward for the horns if he should return.

I had written in another thread that Damion could not guard a small forward in the NBA so he would have to play power forward in the NBA. After being reminded about how great Artest plays D on small forwards, I realized that maybe Damion could, too.

On Jordan:

He practiced with the team at Dominguez and played pickup ball against high-level competition at the Hangar Athletic Exchange gym near Los Angeles International Airport.

That's awesome. I know just the kind of place this is. A better workout there than playing high school ball.

Per Chad Ford:

23 Austin Daye
29 Terrance Williams
35 Sam Young
37 Chase Budinger
42 Kyle Singler (returning to school)
44 DaJuan Summers
46 Damion James
53 Tyler Smith
73 Danny Green

I think it’s interesting how the opinions on BC veer strongly to Damion needing to return to school, whereas the opinions on BON veer strongly to Damion going to the Association now. There’s strong arguments for both sides, to be sure, but it pisses me off that OU has the recent history of hanging on to its guys while we see ours ride off into the sunset.
