Cummard, Nevill named to all-star game
28 comments | Read story
But I hear he might be taking up a Ref. job, when he is not washing cars!!!!!
He went 6-3 head to head. (2 of the loses were his Freshman year when they lost to the U twice). During his last 3 years, when he was playing more minutes, he went 5-1 and averaged 14 pts 5 boards 2 assists a block and 2 steals.
He will also likely be drafted, Nevill is a long shot, but may end up signing as a free agent. Lee being drafted has a much better shot to make a team. Just a fact. Sorry!!
Don't believe me... look at any mockdraft board and you will find Lee early to mid 2nd round and most do not have Nevill on the board, if they do it is at the bottom of the 2nd round.
You're also just as crazy to compare Cummard to Prince and Miller.... Lee is a good player but he is no where near that talent level. My bet is that he plays in Europe somewhere - he will still make money playing a game - there is nothing wrong with that.
He has the athletic ability and just lacks experience and time.......
As much as I would like to see Cummard have a good NBA career, I more likely see him in Europe - not a bad gig if you perform well.
"Luke will be drafted in either the 1st or 2nd round and will have a long career in the NBA.
Are you serious? Do you even follow the draft? That may have been the most uninformed posting I have ever read.
First off, there are only 2 rounds in the NBA draft, so 'IF' he is drafter he will go in the first 2 rounds. LOL.
Second, Can you find ANY NBA draft 'Expert' or site that projects him even in the first half of the 2nd round? If so, please share.
Third, the game has changed. Centers over 7 ft are no longer necessary. Name the last player over 7 ft that dominated a game, besides SHAQ. Can you name any current players over 6' 11?
"Nevill will find himself on an NBA roster for years to come."
You must be up in the night. Dude is soft. Plaistead totally dominated him. It was a joke. Trent was sent over to Europe to develop and I think he will end up in the NBA as a journeyman at best. Hoffa was 3X the palyer Nevill was and he only lasted a few years.
You may want to retract your comment. You are completely delusional. There are 30-40 7 footers in the NBA and EVERY one is better than Nevill.
MWC had no bigs this year. Plaisted left (not sure why) UNLV kicked their center off the team. The next best big man in the conference was Farris. Both Farris and Miles outplayed him at home. Most of his points were from the line. Do you think he will get any calls IF he ever gets in an NBA game?
Go look up the numbers.
Unless something really strange happens between now and draft day there is no way that Luke Nevill is not drafted, he may go late in the 1st round he may go in the second round, but someone will draft him.
Whether he sticks or has any impact in the NBA is a different question. I imagine he will be in the D-league next year somewhere.
