On Episode 167 of the revamped Ballislife In The Paint Show, hosts Ronnie Flores, Ani Umana and Chelsea Hopkins dish on why players fall short of their general high school evaluation and what evaluators learn from those misses. Why do highly-ranked Top 5 prospects miss or fail to live up to expectations? What do evaluators get wrong with some of the prospect they rank high in a particular class? On the flip side, are there any re-occurring factors when it comes to why highly-ranked players don't live up to expectations?
\nThis is an explosive topic and one with alot of layers and multiple perspectives. Is it wrong to say any player that makes the NBA is a bust or missed? Chelsea, as a former pro player who understands how hard it is to stick in pro ball, ask Ron and Ani this hard-hitting question and more as it relates to why players miss from an evaluator's perspective.
\nIn our ITP Scouting Report segment, Ron and Ani give their top three reasons why prospects miss and why that factor is prevalent. Chelsea gives her take on their reasoning. The entitlement, the lack of development of youth stars and the high-pressure stakes of youth ball is broken down as are the mistakes of scouts not knowing a player's mental makeup, the player having a loose circle and overtraining.
\nIn our ITP Final Exam segment, Ron and Ani break down their Top 3 misses over the years and what the learning lesson or main takeaways is from that evaluation? Ani also dishes on the tiers of players (based on final player ranking) with regards to the perceptions surrounding busts. Can a player such as Brandon Knight be considered a miss?
\nThere is alot to go over and review in our latest hour-long ITP Show episode and it requires more insight on our ITP Overtime playlist and future sub-topics.
