I normally agree with juiceman.
I “like” lots of his takes.
I’m gonna hit that “like” button…but the truth is that I don’t have a clue what I just read.
But, this 58 year old grandpa of 5 is still chuckling about a toilet that has a joke hole that’s just for farts. What the heck is that? I’m wondering if this may well be worth looking into? Reminds me a bit of my youthful days.
Imagine years from now….
”Do you remember your Grandpa?”
“A little bit”
“Yeah? That’s cool, what was he like?”
“I don’t remember much…but pretty cool I think…I remember he put a fake toilet in his house that was just for farting.”
I’m way off topic. But I think that sounds
like the best kind of Grandpa there is.

Yes, Juiceman comes up with some pretty good takes.

Ok, granted, but what about this scenario:

The handymen show up and immediately ask to use your bathroom, then for over two hours they take turns going in and out of there, taking huge mud-pies and over flushing? Then they go in there together, and you hear a bunch of scrounging around, and then a bunch of yelling, and then one of them is standing in the bathroom doorway shouting at you that his friend's foot was stuck in the toilet and he says "Help him, you gotta help him!" And when you go in there to help him, he just pulls it out and laughs because his foot wasn't stuck. It wasn't stuck at all, he was just faking it. And then they get really serios and say "It's Turbo Time!" Amd the both start running around the house as fast as they can and jumping over the couches. But when you try to jump in they yell at you and they say "YOU'RE NOT PART OF THE TURBO TEAM! DON'T RUN! YOU DON'T RUN WITH US! WE'RE THE ONES THAT RUN! UNTIL YOU'RE PART OF THIS TURBO TEAM, WALK SLOWLY!" Sobyou go lay down to be by yourself and read your art books, but then the next day you went into the bathroom, and it looked like the hole in your toilet had shrunk. And you said "How can that be? There's no way they could have shrunk the toilet" But then you saw in the trash a receipt from Home Depot for a toilet the exact same size as yours but with a joke hole that's just for farts! They replaced your real toilet with a fart toilet, and now you can't take a d$#@ in your house because your toilet can't suck them down, and you feel sick to your stomach!

What about then? If that's happened to you can you harrass a 19 for making an errant pass then?

With him just going back to NYC, St. John's stands out

Yep, if that comes to pass, can imagine quite a highlight reel of Belo dishing to AJ Storr for the slam in the Garden!

Would be happy for him, but won't regret not getting a lot of St. John's games in my area so I don't have to experience the haunting firsthand! :D

60 Assists on 53 TOs.

Either way, good luck to him, especially his health and recovery.
Apart from his magic, I'll always remember Belo as having some sort of unofficial record for most unfinished assists. For every assist he got, it seemed like there was also one blown dunk and two wide-open, in rhythm open looks that either weren't attempted or just didn't go down.

As he sat the second half of the last game, I thought about the Loyola game, where Ace Miller seemed to be the only guy who could score, but wasn't getting used much. 98% of tournament teams lose their last game of the year, and I would be willing to wager that a bunch of guys in the portal felt they were underutilized in that last loss.

If the 19-year- old mixing my paint at Home Depot screws it up, he’s going to hear about it. I’m not going to say, “He’s just a kid and he’s doing his best. I’ll just take the wrong color.” People get positive feedback when they do well, and negative feedback when they don’t. It’s perfectly fair to criticize how a basketball player plays basketball.
This actually happened to me about 6 mo ago (bad paint mixer there)..What Peeved me off the most was he was squawking on his phone earpiece the whole time,...distracting him from job.

I caught one of the mgrs and they fixed the batch, and I'm sure the kid got counseling or the boot, not sure which.

So bringing it back to basketball,...I believe discipline and hardwork are almost equal or more with talent.

I swore I wasn’t going to read this. Then I read it. While reading it I decided I was going to ask The Juiceman for 3 minutes of my life back. Then I finished and realized it is one of the greatest short stories in the history of mankind. And now, Mr. Cometh, if that’s even your real name (or perhaps it is your nom de plume), I owe you. Thank you.

Good enough for CBB's best program the past few years, but not good enough for our armchair coaches and social media warriors. Got it.
I get your point but maybe CBB’s second best program the last few years behind ‘Nova. Gotta point that out before the Belo haters get all butt hurt and beat me to it.

With all due respect to everyone here, I haven’t read a paragraph that gripping since Orange Fever’s soliloquies on the old, old coaching carousel. Out of the blue. Hilarious!
