    because people on this site hype wall to the fullest i man he is a good player but he isnt great i think he neeeds to work on alot of thing give him time to develop i remmeber one time somebody said he is going to be the greatest point guard of all time and when the tempo is slowed down wall doesn’t know what to do.

    I think it’s because most people had their eyes on Wall most of the time in the 3rd game, no one (even though I did) really watched the other Kentucky games because Wall wasn’t playing. So Wall’s 1st game was more hyped and all eyes were on him, not to mention Bledsoe played terrible last night.

    yeah but im nt talking about how he played in the second game..before the second game even started…and even the people who didnt even watch the game wall played in were going crazy about reading the stats…it pretty much shows a certain type of bias..my thing if if someone playes well reguardless of there hype they should at least be aknowledged…i beat if wall pu up the number bledsoe did then he would be considered the next greatest freshman ever

    Isn’t Wall already considered the next greatest freshman ever??

    True, Wall still has a ways to go on certain aspects of his game, but Bledsoe does too. He had 7 turnovers in the game against Morehead. Both are freshman and are playing in an offense that demands you to drive into the lane, so I expect their turnover #’s to be up a little bit to start the season. Once they calm down a little bit they won’t be so erratic and making stupid turnovers.

    That sure was a wake up call for the Big Blue Nation. Expectations are still way too high for us right now. The potential is there though.

    yeah according to some over zealous fans hes gonna be the next best thing since sliced bread

    as far as kentucky..im gonna watch them because they have the ability to be good but they could also end up dropping.

    Ppl care more about Wall on here then. It’s nothing personal, it’s just that more people were anticipating Wall’s debut more than Bledsoe’s….

    thts why i said bias…im a true basketball fan..i like..if a player is playing good or plays well then i give praise and pay attention…i guess thats also what seperates a good scout from a regular scout..they go and see and remeber players who arent real hyped compared to the average scout who just looks at the hyped player

    See another John Wall Hate post. And another thing failed to be mentioned is that John Wall played his debut with Bledsoe so he had to share the shine, While Bledsoe was given the keys to takeover in the backcourt in his debut

      Plus, your post doesn’t even make sense. You put a question mark and you aren’t even asking a question. If you were meaning to ask a question then go back through grade school and learn how to type a complete sentence.

    whats funny is no one said wall wasnt good some people just have said certain things that wall didnt do well and were critical which theres nothing wrong with because its not like he had a perfect game but since they werent all over his azz and said oh hes the greatest since sliced bread and didnt give an opinion mikemike didnt like then they are haters.
