Which resulted in him being in the starting lineup for 8 games that year as a walk-on. I'm not comparing CVL to Walther but a simple superior understanding of fundamentals on offense and defense (which I assume is what this technical stuff means) doesn't really equate unless it actually results in productivity, which it didn't last year for CVL. He'll get better for sure, and already has maybe, but don't think it will equate to him being a great defender or distributor.

Please explain why this message is being reported.

TP w/your typical 6 and 10....and 7 and 6 stat line. - tiger4real MU - 8/9 17:48:13

CVL's line is quite impressive - ERB KC - 8/9 23:15:10

How does CVL get 26 and no rebounds or no fouls - smoke STL - 8/9 18:05:28

Actually that is not a bad stat line for him - quicksand MU - 8/9 18:21:36

Why do people think CVL is not athletic? - Mutiger MU - 8/9 23:35:30

That's how we used him last year, too - zodiac6 JC - 8/9 18:43:06

I compare this post - haeffb MU - 8/9 18:29:08

I don't disagree he is the most "technical player" - quicksand MU - 8/9 19:15:26

Let me clarify the contrast I see - haeffb MU - 8/9 19:32:00

Let's try this - quicksand MU - 8/9 20:03:46

I feel like this is right on the money(nm) - ERB KC - 8/9 23:17:49

Less snark - haeffb MU - 8/9 20:26:50

Given what he did last year, what positives are you looking - 90Tiger MU - 8/9 22:32:14

I'm not necessarily looking for postitives - haeffb MU - 8/10 07:10:48

Sometimes a comment that aligns with a stereotype - 90Tiger MU - 8/10 09:03:54

I would have scouted Grawer and Kroenke much differently - quicksand MU - 8/9 20:50:07

You comparing the freshman versions of those guys? - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/9 20:54:39

Freshman versions - quicksand MU - 8/9 21:43:59

and you can't be sure which - 90Tiger MU - 8/9 19:41:47

Perhaps, perhaps not - haeffb MU - 8/9 20:01:30

Oh I have no doubt about that, the question is why. - 90Tiger MU - 8/9 22:33:39

Demonstrated depth of understanding - haeffb MU - 8/10 07:05:00

He showed flashes of being that player - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/9 19:19:23

I wonder how many thousands of technically great HS kids - 90Tiger MU - 8/9 19:28:53

There are a lot of fundamentally sound players - zodiac6 JC - 8/9 19:46:26

Going into last year I heard that the coaches - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/9 20:12:38

Chip Walther was our technically best player in 1997 - quicksand MU - 8/9 19:42:08

Exactly my point. He could end up being very productive, bu - 90Tiger MU - 8/9 19:45:17

One of the smartest posts I've read here in a long time.(nm) - zodiac6 JC - 8/9 18:44:42

Seems completely contradictory to your agreement - quicksand MU - 8/9 19:03:07

I agreed with nothing. - zodiac6 JC - 8/9 19:15:33

And 1 steal. Idk maybe because he was guarding the 5th best - tiger4real MU - 8/9 18:17:05

Best guess is he didn't grab a board or commit a foul - Diamond Dave MU

- 8/9 18:13:24

That, or the stat keeper had a big breakfast and dozed - haeffb MU - 8/9 18:30:08
