Seth Davis: Will Duke jeopardize Kelly's future?

I don't see where having a degree from Duke can jeopardize anyone's future.

Absolutley correct JGunn. His life after basketball will be in tact. Duke guys have an advantage over a huge number of schools.

RE: Seth Davis: Will Dook jeopardize Kelly's future?

Kelly's future isn't in the NBA. Most draft boards have him late 2nd round or undrafted. He should have a long career in Europe if he wants it but he could also go the coaching route in the US.

Nice job 903. I don't know why Kelly didn't hit the weight room while at Duke. He would be so much better and definitely stronger had he done this. The big guys in the NBA come in strong most of the time.

Well, I think the strength and conditioning coaches were hesitant to do that with Kelly because he's a long-range shooting specialist. He could reshape his body and add muscle, and foot speed but what if it messed up his shooting form? But in the case of Josh Hairston, they did tell him to hit the weights and as a result he bulked up alot since high school and is used primarily to set screens and rebound. But he also says that he's lost endurance and foot speed. They've also done this with Miles Plumlee and Marshall Plumlee because adding strength was the best way those players could help the team.

Will Dook jeopardize Kelly's future?

Answer: No. His future was already in jeopardy the moment he came back for a second year. History shows that Duke produces one bust after another in the NBA.

So why then does Duke have the most players in the NBA at this time with the highest dollar value in salaries?

Love that he mentioned Lehigh right at the beginning LOL!

(I thought UNC fans were the only ones who remembered that game? LOL!)

1-3 without "Bucky" Kelly. Ouch.

"Bucky" has passed up more leg than you've ever seen.

Did you mean to say "Log"?

Looks like he's chewed through quite a few of those.
