Can Myles become our Ethan Happ?

[soundcrib]

He has the ability.

 

[MadRU]

Totally different game. Myles best bet is to be a power player inside also with good court vision. Happy is a finesse player, played point guard as a kid.

 

[RUJMM78]

In foul shooting perhaps but otherwise their skill sets are different.

 

[soundcrib]

You don’t think Myles can develop into this?



And I’m not necessarily talking about dropping 34. But Myles has a foundation for great footwork and hands around the basket.

 

[MadRU]

Happ is more mobile than just about any big I have seen. Myles does not have that type of skill set.

Happ handles the ball like a guard. Amazing ball handler for a big guy..

 

[sct1111]

Happ is also maybe 6'8 on a good day. Myles is 6'10 with a 7'6 wingspan.

 

[Mr_Twister]

Come on. Happ has refined skills and touch that are not taught. Understands how the game is played. Myles is miles away from Happ, but nevertheless a very valuable player for Rutgers.

That's because he used to be a guard as @MadRU pointed out. Happ was 6-foot-2 as a high school freshman. His dad put him through ball handling drills when he was young.

 

[Knight Owl]

Put four 3 pt shooters on the floor and Myles would drop dimes to cutters all day.

 

[FELONIOUSMONK]

No sir.

 

[RUsince52]

He needs to be another James Bailey and we're good.

 

[Loyal_2RU]

He needs to be another James Bailey and we're good.

yes If he develops into the number 6 pick in the lottery we are in very good shape.

 

[winfield102]

Eugene is our closet to Happ. If he takes another leap, he could be an 18 point scorer.

 

[zebnatto]

I see him on the low block, scoring if not doubled, and making the right pass if he is. Could be effective.

 

[Mr Magoo]

Happ has a lot of unusual skills for a big man because he grew late. Much different players.
