I think Bates and Grill can play pro basketball - Valley Tiger MU - 4/17 06:55:28

Not a chance at NBA. - cybertyger MU - 4/17 07:32:27

Bates has the size & the tools to be a 3-and-D rotation guy - HissingPrigs77 MU - 4/17 12:37:39

If Bates had the shooters mentality that both Grill and Hodg - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/17 13:13:26

Can Jakuocionis?sp.from Illinois play? I'd take Bates over(nm) - oldtgr MU - 4/17 08:52:17

Bates does not look 6'5 to me - Genco98 MU - 4/17 12:00:08

He's not, in those pictures the other day he was standing - Uncle John STL - 4/17 12:06:05

Gates is 6’3 (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/17 12:22:25

That would make Bates about 6'3 1/4". (nm) - Uncle John STL - 4/17 12:30:14

Bates is a 90/50/40 guy and has vertical - Valley Tiger MU - 4/17 07:37:26

Bates is too passive. He has the foundation skills and - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/17 07:54:15

Neither is a good enough ball handler or defender given - FIJItiger MU

- 4/17 07:44:55

they don't play defense in the NBA - Valley Tiger MU - 4/17 08:52:36
