Lattin...

[soonerjunky]

Then leave. I have never cared for you much and it is a joke that entertains me. If I ever wake up and feel like I should live my life to make you happy, I will be sure to let you know but I wouldn't hold your breath.

ignore him, obviously he doesn't get the joke. My boss is a OSU fan and every OSU game he mentions that Travis ford wanted Solomon over Lattin. And they didn't even pursue Lattin.

When he gets comfortable receiving the ball and turning to face up his defender and making a 2 step move to the basket he is going to be a lot of fun to watch.

I think Lattin possibly takes over at the 4 for Spangler. I visited with CLK at Moore HS when Lattin was in town for a HS tournament. I asked Coach how he projected at OU. He said he'd be "a 5 early but possibly a 4 after a year or 2". I think he makes that transition over the offseason.

Lattin leads the conference in blocks by 10 in conference play 12 overall

Denver. It's played. So played.

Agreed. I was one of the ones who chimed in on that pointless little "debate", but the point is proved. The horse is beaten to a pulp. It's time to just enjoy the fact Lattin is playing so well and move on.

Lattin is doing a good job shot blocking and changing shots. I wish he would rebound a little better. He's had 11 total boards in his last 3 games, and I wonder if he is leaving his man too often to try and block shots thus leaving his man for an easy offensive rebound.

I think he is going for a few too many blocks ... he needs to pick and choose his spots .. because some of those he misses are easy O rebounds for the other team

It was funny the first 4 or 500 times. Now, it's time for some new material.

I love love love Lattin for the player he is right now, but his potential is mind blowing. You can make an argument that although he is not necessarily a better talent ( at least right now ) than TaShawn Thomas, he is a better fit for this team. Thomas wasn't known for defense he was known for scoring, but this team has more than enough scoring. IF we reach the FF, I believe that Lattin will go down as one of the most important pieces to the puzzle. You can find a lot more players in college basketball that average 15 points a night than you can that average 2.6 blocks per night. He is, in my opinion, doing exactly what Oklahoma Sooner basketball needs him to do to have a very special 2015-2016 season.

That is something else...WOW

He will continue to get better as a shooter and scorer. The coaches believe he will be shooting 3's before his career is over in Norman.

 

[scrybe]

Guess you could call him a Little Big Daddy.

 

[SoonerTraveler]

I believe his nickname is King Deem.

I believe his nickname is King Deem.

Yep, he said in the post game interview Dante gave him that nickname

Excuse me Mr. Quartermain,

Excuse me Mr. Quartermain,

NOT EVEN IN YOUR HOUSE !!

LOL. Lattin gets to the ball when I think there is no way he'll get that block. His tip/steal late was a BIG momentum changer.
