Re: Mika is Elite
No. I don't think that was it either. I don't think Jackson ever played w/ the LP3. This is Mika's and Emery's 4th year removed from high school and Jackson's first.hawkwing wrote:Excellent point then, and one that unfortunately has come to fruition.SpiffCoug wrote:Hawk, please confirm that this was a fear I expressed back in October on one of our long Saturday runs.BroncoBot wrote:I really think the LP3 thing has created a bit of a schism.Gunk wrote:Bottom line, we aren't playing team ball.

BYU just doesn't look comfortable with themselves.
Honestly I think the rest of the Lone Peak 3 were never really as good as they were thought to be (with the exception of Mika) but were all made to look much better than they were by Frank Jackson.

Re: Mika is Elite
Frank Jackson was on the team that won the High school NC, which also had Mika on it. I don't know if Nick Emery was on that team too.

Re: Mika is Elite
If he was, he was a small role player. That team was mainly the current LP3 with Talon Shumway.frdbtr wrote:Frank Jackson was on the team that won the High school NC, which also had Mika on it. I don't know if Nick Emery was on that team too.

Re: Mika is Elite
So Mika comes in 1.8" below the average on standing reach, and 3.8" short on wingspan.Qman wrote: http://www.draftexpress.com/nba-pre-dra ... s&year=All
Per DX measurement history the average 6'10" player entering the draft has a standing reach of 9'0.3" and a wingspan of 7'1.8".
