Oof. Horrible for Porter, that's awful. I hope he recovers and has a nice long NBA career.

I hope that vindicates Washington a little bit.

Missouri - screw 'em.

Bad for the Bulls as the early first round picks just went down by 1. Too risky to take 1-3.

Went up for a rebound circa 1980 and when I came down I had a squished L5 and lost at least half inch of height. No way I was doing a fusion. My back's hurt every day of my life since. It's a pisser for anyone who loves playing the game above about anything, like I did, but especially one with pro and $$ aspirations. He's making the right call to get it fixed as best he can right now. Good luck to him. Wasn't his father supposed to be on Martin's staff? Wonder if that'll hold.

Where have I been that I've missed this pop-culture masterpiece for the past 5 years?

This is so incredibly bad, that you think, "Is this one of those things that is so bad, that it's actually good? . . ."

But then you quickly come to your senses and realize, "No, it's just that bad."

I cringed so hard I almost died. I couldn't even finish watching it.

If I see a video like that from any one of you guys you will be banned! And I'm not even a moderator....but I'll somehow find a way!

I'm not certain he doesn't come back for a year to Mizzou. I'm not certain that he is still a lottery pick with back surgery. Might feel the need to prove himself again. At least get that advice from scouts coach,,etc. (you know Cuonzo i's'nt gonna give him the best advice about what he should do, It will be in the best interest of cuonzo)

Could definitely see him getting 100% by Apr/May, putting his name into the draft, working out for several teams and finding out he's still a top 5 pick, then going to the NBA without ever playing at MU again.

I feel absolutely awful for the kid and I wish nothing but a speedy recovery for him. As for CM, karma has started to work her magic! I can't wait to see how he "coaches" his way through the adversity! The Braggin' Rights game can't come soon enough!
