The funny thing about this is that right after this Edey goes for 32 points and 12 rebounds against MSU and Knecht scores 13 against Alabama. LOL! You'll never see Edey wet the bed against anyone. The team might but not Edey.
And even look at FDU last year. They didnt lose because of Edey. He scored 20+ and had 10+ rebounds with 5 or more being offensive and had one turnover. They lost because everyone else sucked
Are you really comparing MSU to Alabama? MSU is mid at best and Alabama is a top 25 team with the #1 offense. Tennessee didn’t have to use DK that much in the game to win bcuz they had other options
@joshuagrizzel4246 do you even know how to evaluate college basketball?? LOL. I'm talking about Knecht's performance against a very bad defensive team in Alabama. Statistically, Alabama is bad at defense. Just look at their numbers, and Knecht scores 13 against them, LOL. Just like Jay Bilas said, there is nobody in college basketball that absolutely dominates the game the way Edey does. He will back to back NPOY.
I was excited to watch how Edey changed his game from last year to this year. Instead, I just listened to mindless debates from Jay Williams and watched one clip of Edey making a play he wouldn’t have made last year….
Edey is extremely coordinated but limited lateraly. I think he could improve his athleticism to compensate for the next level, because its not a footwork issue. He does need lower body stengthening and conditioning if he wants to see minutes
Jay Williams is DELUSIONAL if he actually believes that Edey isn't a lock to win NPOY. Dalton Knecht is an excellent player, but has had nowhere near the season that Edey has.
The SEC maybe be “better” than the big ten but the defenses are not especially when you remove Tennessee from the mix (because Tennessee cant play themselves) Kentucky and Alabama, two of the better teams, have bad defenses straight up…the big ten has a lot of solid teams defensively and Edey puts up with constant doubles and he gets fouled everytime he touches the ball regardless of a foul call or not…Edey is run away but in most years Knecht would be a lock…Edey is also a better defender and a top 5 rebounder in the country who averages 2.3 blocks per game and the same number of assists as Knecht …there isn’t a real case for anyone else
Eddy won’t even do well in the NBA. These college teams have a bunch of dudes who aren’t League material, so obviously he is gonna do well. But every NBA team has an answer for him. He’s not the skilled.
Dalton knecht would beat edey 10 out of 10 ten times. Edey gets away with too many fouls. If he cant play the college game correct he should go on to the nba where they dont call fouls.

@@daveymoore883not to mention this clown doesn’t even realize that PURDUE ALSO BEAT BAMA AND EDEY HAD 35 7 and 2 LMAO
@joshuagrizzel4246 Purdue smoked Alabama. I think Edey had a 35 pt game when they beat them.
Chet, wemby and edey are going to change the game
2/3
Edey most likely going to be Jakob poeltl. Solid nba player
He’ll be a flop
Edey & knecht to d spurs
Bro edey and gonna play barely in the league, he has a game that doesn’t translate. Look at Garza from 3 years ago, and he could space the floor
He is only going to get better. And stronger. And more athletic.😮
Definitely not more athletic stronger and slower maybe
Purdue has beaten 5 of the other 14 of top 15 ranked teams.
I hope he does well in the NBA, but i just cant see him being a difference maker in the league. Best of luck to him tho.

Jay Williams is silly
This dude arguing for Knecht because he plays in a better league. Purdue beat Tennessee in Hawaii.
Edey is extremely coordinated but limited lateraly. I think he could improve his athleticism to compensate for the next level, because its not a footwork issue. He does need lower body stengthening and conditioning if he wants to see minutes
The guy never gets tired. Conditioning isn't an issue
Jay Williams is DELUSIONAL if he actually believes that Edey isn't a lock to win NPOY. Dalton Knecht is an excellent player, but has had nowhere near the season that Edey has.
Leaside's own lol dude also gained valuable experience playing on Canada's World Cup roster with dudes like SGA and Olynyk
Yes the nba needs more throwback low post bigmen
Having a lob threat is better than a low post Bigman in my opinion
edey gunna def be a first overall pick ... to the shanghai sharrkssss
Nah the heat mark my words
Edey is going to the Raptors...he's coming home
God Jay Williams is a 🤡

Short memories
my guy Zeebo NPOY again, keep crying NCAA
Amazing how Zach Edey dominates everywhere, but is only predicted to go 2nd round.
projected top 20 or top 15 pick right now
They want 7'4 300lb bigs to shoot 3's now, the game is so weird.
“Who won head to head” when arguing a big vs guard is such a lazy take
arguing that a guy should win NPOY because of how he'll play in the nba is a worse take
🇨🇦
Don’t draft this guy. Another BIG flop coming.
I don't think that will be the case and something tells me that you don't like Bigs!
The grizzlies will
Eddy won’t even do well in the NBA. These college teams have a bunch of dudes who aren’t League material, so obviously he is gonna do well. But every NBA team has an answer for him. He’s not the skilled.
More skilled then a lot of bigs in NBA
7'4 300lbs will have no issues scoring and rebounding in the nba.
Dalton knecht would beat edey 10 out of 10 ten times. Edey gets away with too many fouls. If he cant play the college game correct he should go on to the nba where they dont call fouls.
tennessee all ready lost to purdue this year lol
Not impressed. Just sit under basket man up on a guy 2 foot shorter for a 2 ft basket….
Tell me you don't understand basketball without telling me
They'll probably still lose in the 1st or 2nd round of the tournament.
Matt Painter sucks.
Maybe but doubtful but this team is so much like Virginia in 2019! Purdue is so MUCH better on Neutral Courts and chomping at the bit to get there!
