Jaden McDaniels (Federal Way) (COMMITTED) (EMFA KENTUCKY)

Final 4 or bust

I get it, it's fun to dream, but an Elite 8 would be fantastic to me.

We're talking about a coach who has one exactly one tournament game and a program that hasn't been past the sweet 16 since 19 fucking 53.

We won't be top 10 preseason. Getting to the E8 would be a huge huge step.

Should also be noted it's going to be a ROUGH road for whatever team wins the conference, even given the class we have, Arizona AND USC are ahead of us in rankings, and Oregon is only 4 spots back.

There's been nothing but big dick energy from Hopkins so far, he'll need to keep it going.

We have the two best players in the conference we’ll be fine.

I’ll wager a large amount of money Stewart and McDaniels won’t be the best two players in the conference. Two of the top 5, maybe.

We’re not talking Zion and Barrett.

Tres Tinkle will be the best player in the conference. But Stewart could easily be #2. McDaniels is still inconsistent and probably a few years away from reaching his potential
 
Isaiah will be better than Tinkle lol. Isaiah’s going to be a top 5 pick.

Jaden’s too big and skilled for pretty much everyone in CBB to handle.

Agreed.

It is nice however knowing that in the majority of games the two most talented players on the court will be on UW’s side.

For someone that can actually coach.

I buy Stewart as a possible best player in the conference. McDaniels isn’t.

McDaniels will be better than Tinkle or Mannion. Stewart will be the best player in the conference

Stewart is definitely giving 1st team all american vibes, fultz talent but with a killer instinct

Mcdaniels (and Stewart) will be very good. A top 5 pick doesn’t mean the best college player. NBA draft is all about potential

Fucking Christ, Tinkle is still around??

Calm down with the absolute doogism. Tinkle has been essentially averaging a double-double for three years now and is far and away the CPOY favorite.
 
I know all-star game bullshit, but Stewart consistently dominated all that shit and was getting shout outs from his peers as a guy that impressed from practice.

I expect him to be very good out the gate.

I could see McDaniels being a little disappointing or things taking awhile to click.

I do like the idea of Stewart pushing McDaniels/team behind the scenes with his work ethic. That seems to be the knock on Jaden is he doesn't go 100% so hopefully Stewarts presence changes that.

The 100% narrative is dumb.

Why
Because he didn’t have to try in HS ball. He tried and dominated the EYBL circuit last summer and that’s why he blew up.

If you expect Stewart and McDaniels to both be better than 20 and 8 you’re almost assuredly going to be disappointed.
