Sticks and Stones Can Break My Bones, But Words Can Hurt My Draft Stock

By | 0 Comments | Feb 16, 2019

If you missed today's live mock draft on ESPN featuring Chad Ford and Bill Simmons, you can still read the transcript.  Then you'll wonder why anyone would have followed it live for 4 hours.  And those of us who followed it live will readily acknowledge our error in judgment.  But during the mock draft, Chad Ford threw out the following gem:

Followed by this:

But those search results made me think about Rondo and Cousins.  Rondo was labeled as being uncoachable coming out of Kentucky.  Turns out he just didn't fit very well in Tubby Smith's system.  Rondo was labeled uncoachable again in Boston, and was rumored to be on the trade block.  Success, it seems, has made Rondo suddenly very coachable.

Cousins could end up being a coaching nightmare, I have no idea.  But neither do any of the other draft experts.  We're all clueless, and we're filling idle time until tomorrow night.
