Implying that the best player on a bad team still sucks because the team is bad is as stupid an assessment as saying that the worst player on a good team is a stud because the team wins.
If you honestly believe this, then criticism of the Head Coach (like Anthony Grant) is off limits because if the team stinks, it's because they have no talent.
Right?
I guarantee you that there are plenty of Top 10 basketball and football teams with rosters full of HS players from bad teams. And there are plenty of bottom 10 basketball and football teams filled with players from State champions.
It doesn't take brains to understand how talent gets lost when surrounded by weak players just as it doesn't take brains to realize that 20 ppg players sometimes benefit from the system. It just takes common sense...which is lacking around here lately.
For the royal doubters out there, have you ever hear of Michael Haley, Jr from Dunbar back in the 80s? He sucked but still averaged 35 ppg on a state championship team. He was surrounded by talent, coddled by his dad/coach and had the uncanny knack of being able to cherry pick and make a layup.
Still a royal doubter? Then I guess you believe that Joey Votto sucks, too.
King Rollo the SMH...OUT!
