thats kinda shocking. I pegged him as a mediocre athlete, which is why he has to rely on so many off balance shots. Which thankfully he is really good at. If he's got that type of vertical at his height, jump over people Drej.

even the most talented 18 year olds struggle to beat talented 23 year olds.

Every year there is some highly rated transfer that places higher emphasis on money, goes to a lesser team, and ends up mid-pack in their conference and any early exit from the tourney. What do you want kid, do you want to win, or are you scrapping for every penny. Let me know now, so I know if...

people can hate it, and he was definitely biased towards Duke, but there was no one better than prime Dickie V.

I bet they tell him you've got to show you can shoot the ball. Shooting 24.4% from 3 is not going to cut it. He's a wizard driving to the rim, but can he do that consistently in the pros?

An agent will never be your friend. They will always be looking for more.

On the bright side, of the 4 brackets I made, I got all 4 of the Final 4 right in one of them. That happened to be the bracket I had Michigan winning. I had them beating the beloved in the championship though not UConn. Ended up in the top 99.3%, which was good for 196,487th place. There are a...

This is crazy town. Michigan is just destroying them. My best bracket, I got all 4 of the Final 4 right. I did have Michigan winning in that bracket, over the Illini. They play like this on Monday, and I'm going to end with my best bracket ever.

I thought Arizona and Michigan were the top 2 teams this year by a pretty big margin, but I think Arizona was the #1 and Michigan the #2.

You won't win any Final 4 games ever shooting 23% from 3 and 34% from the field. They played good enough to win, but couldn't hit the broadside of a barn shooting.

Anytime you can get someone named Jasper, you do it.

shirts are too tight

I want to win the lottery just so I can say get out of here kid, you're not worth half that. He had a great season and that was good for 3rd in conference and 1 NCAA tournament win. Is someone willing to give up $5 m going to be happy with 3rd in conference and 1 tournament win against a lower...

Why are people saying Boozer made a major bonehead play, he didn't even need to cross halfcourt? The ball was inbounds with 10 seconds left. Ok cool call a 10 second violation, UConn gets the ball with 0 seconds left. Now it's possible they could have called a 5 second if he just held it there...
