          What shocker coaches and fans will like right away is his jumpshot,he's an above average shooter.The talent the coaches haven't seen is the ability to handle the ball at that size.What WSU get is a 6-8 SF (7-0 wingspan)who can shoot and handle.

            So I just revisited several links in Derail's thread (I just wasn't up to it with the whole Perry thing happening the same day). Derail looks like pure untapped potential! He handles the ball like a point, shoots like a 2, quick like a 3, and has the height of a post, yet he only averaged 14 and 6 and is rated as the 17th best player in Dallas. Something isn't quite right about that.

            I also loved this quote from the VYPE article linked on p. 2, "Green (6-foot-7) has been a four year starter for Klein Forest and has a basketball IQ which is off the charts...[KFHC] 'I got a call from Toure who played in the pick-up games and he said Derail was a big-time player"

            I wonder if Derail outperformed some of the regulars from Sunrise?

              I think that shows that he isnt a selfish player and puts the team goals first before individual stats

                I don't know why someone else hasn't called this out here, but I leave in Houston and Derail Green goes to Klein Forest. By the way, the Shockers have the longest consecutive streak for Houston players. There has been a Houston player on the Shocks roster for 16 years.
                The Republicans ... are having a hard time getting their members to act as a unit instead of like a bunch of six-year-olds playing anarchist soccer; three teams, two goals, you decide.

Other Houstonians who have kept the candle burning are, PJ Cousinard (Yates 2003), Karon Bradley (Cy Springs via Marquette transfer). Wendell Preadom (Westbury Chr 2005), Currently, senior guard Toure Murry (Klein Forest 2008) is big man on campus. If all goes well, Green could push that streak to 14 years."

                        “The rebellion on the populist right against the results of the 2020 election was partly a cynical, knowing effort by political operators and their hype men in the media to steal an election or at least get rich trying. But it was also the tragic consequence of the informational malnourishment so badly afflicting the nation. ... Americans gorge themselves daily on empty informational calories, indulging their sugar fixes of self-affirming half-truths and even outright lies.'

                          Kennedy just said he scored 27 pts in the first half of his game saturday, thats all I know. I will have to go find a box score or something.

                            Not sure how good Derail will be out of the gates, but I like his game and his potential. He really handles the ball well.
