If someone had told me last Sunday evening, our season's hopes smoldering in the side of the mountain, that I would have spent this much time on a single Loyalty thread the following Friday through Sunday, having such high entertainment value and with no apparent end in sight, I would have been like:
Thank you. Thank you all.
I have only one question: is L.A.D. even legal on a Sunday night?

Regardless; of his injury, but how it effects his ability to drive endlessly and play stifling defense will determine what position he plays and where he lands. He looks to beat his man consistently off the dribble and he is pretty good in the pick and roll OFFENSE. CURBELO, remember Guys- was not a great 3pt. Shooter in High School. He for the most part improved in that area by playing off the others, getting to his shooting spot and letting it fly. A lot of times (UNDERWOOD) and the Illinois staff said he has the core functions and ability to shoot, a variety of shots, if he plays smart and with his teammates in the flow of the offense. Look at Chris Duhon, Patrick Beverley, Rod Strickland, even Kenny Smith and DJ. Stewert formerly off Duke..,all had flashes of brilliance and all of these GUARDS were considered not great 3 pt.shooters; but were looked upon (as they continued), to playing their leading PG roles, would win more games and thrive successfully with the team that they had given their commitment too. I believe Andre Curbelo and Adam Miller will bring us the great play we have been waiting for. From a coaching perspective and a LOYAL FAN....That cares.
TSJ isn’t a primary ball handler. They would look for a true PG type.

It is desirable to have a veteran ball handler but it surely feels like Skyy is kind of in that shoe unless TA told him, "Sure we will find a more senior ball handler in case you screw up." LOL.
Do they have anyone in mind?
I‘d heard it mentioned he was more concerned about the effects on his family.
No one that’s in the portal yet.

Wasn't Turgeon even getting threats and harassed away from the games, too? Sounded seriously over the top.
Not saying that's what Brad sold to Skyy. But if Belo leaves, it sure looks like from Skyy's angel that there is no incumbent and no serious outside competitors for the PG duty.
The concept of losing Belo and adding 2 guards coming off ACLs doesn’t excite me. I guess what does excite me is that if we lost a player of Belo’s caliber 3 or 4 years ago, our only choice would have been to replace him with a Matic Vessel-type. Today we have to worry about how to make room for all the transfer starters at P-5 teams who want to wear the orange and blue. That’s new and different.
Well said my brother.
