Matt Painter on Zach Edey's improvement and NBA fit | Gary Parrish Show

[@hillbilly21960]

It really aggravates me the critics say he will be to slow but wouldn’t have said that about clingon. Especially since Edey tested faster

[@ripsett6638]

Haters are just gonna hate and they aren’t gonna stop. If anything there’s gonna be more.

[@Memphizm]

Most of these critics are nonathletic idiots. Zach Edey bout to go crazy!

[@limitlessfiberglass4561]

Love hearing from Paint - thanks

[@sixmike]

Coach only touched on it for a split second, but the idea of Edey getting a feel for those Gortat screens and clearing the lane for Ja is getting me hyped

[@claytonhurley1134]

Great interview - good questions

[@BoilerUp1650]

Boiler Up!!

[@TommyTomTompkins]

Grizzly up

[@ANCIENTASTRONAUT]

BTFU

[@tristanriley1694]

Like Zach Edey!!!!

[@burningknuckle26]

Ja gonna set edey up crazy lobz

[@johnburke7253]

One thing that everyone has missed on is Edey's heritage. His mother is Chinese and if properly marketed by the NBA the Chinese Market will explode for Edey, I believe he also speaks some Mandarin so anticipate a push by the NBA/Memphis into that market. Big $$$$$$ for all.

[@burningknuckle26]

That would be crazy if he develop a Yao like shot. I see ja giving him great lobs forsure.

[@deandrewilliams5891]

Let’s go mane

[@TommyTomTompkins]

Aye mane say mane

[@DanteVictor-wg2by]

I compared Zach to Joel Embid, he will be dominant in NBA and that's will be the regrets of some NBA team to pass him, they have the same shooting capability and same moves, they say that Embid is slow but now look at Embid he is dominant center in NBA

[@itsjustacomment454]

Edey is good, and definitely deserves being in the NBA. Purdue got cooked by UConn's guards coming off screens. I don't know if it was him or the coaching, but they had wide open jumpers and floaters all night. Cligan moves better defending guards coming off screens.

[@bigoledaddyz]

I thought Purdue's offense outside of Edey and Smith struggled.

[@ggranntt]

edey tested better at the combine than clingan

[@MissionMan]

It was UConn. They torched everyone.

[@Zeckert13]

UConn had 4 of their starters get drafted, and Karaban would have been at least a 2nd rounder if he had stayed in the draft. I'm not trying to diminish Clingan as a defender, but go dig up some tape of Purdue defending off ball screens and just watch what the defender who gets screened does. Then do the same for UConn. It's a night and day difference.

[@Baylorbetterthanbrown]

Should have went 1st to atlanta

[@nomoremuda]

Third centers stink..... ROFL

[@soccerplyr8]

Bust isn't a strong enough word

[@UkHoopz]

Why? Give me 5 names who will be able to stop edey in the paint 1v1

[@nicaOne]

Boy they are trying to sell this edey pick hard lol - guy’s upside is third big on a team

[@bigspaces9587]

Boy are you in for a big surprise. Zach will start next season.

[@MissionMan]

That's his downside. His upside is Yao Ming with Duncan's fundamentals.

[@nicaOne]

lol such a troll comment to throw out those names

[@soccerplyr8]

out of the league before you know it. Unplayable

[@ilovekaiyko]

⁠@@soccerplyr8stick to soccer

[@justinalley3399]

he didnt show any improvment he played the same way in college last 2 seasons

[@NeedofBeingVersed]

Demonstrably false, but ok.

[@Purdue7]

You mean Naismith award ?😮

[@micmasters801]

Just talking is cool too.

[@zachsparrow3220]

this is why i love the internet. The guy who coached him up to 2xNPOY says he improved but @justinalley3399 sees right through it

[@SAMMIEJONESJUNIOR]

People don't respond to this post just move on
