  1. if any of y’all wants to reach for a player so that you can get two days worth of extra stats in matchup no.1 be my guest.
  2. i understand that reaction, but it really is different these days in a level that it’s never approached before. i’m defintely not saying this about just your typical youth athlete, but in particular these college basketball recruits and young players. they’re growing up in this era: we thought aau made kids hard to coach. these young hoopers these days are being showcased and propped up from such a young age that it has become increasingly important to vet their character and coach-ability. youth basketball in america is seriously fucked on a level that we haven’t seen before.
  3. another big thing is that kids want someone to look up to, they want someone to teach them. that’s why augie never left college ball, he wanted to help teach, coach, and mold young men and improve their lives. kids these days aren’t even interested in listening to an adult, whether it’s a parent, teacher, coach, whatever. they have the internet, and they know everything. the buy-in from college athletes (and HS athletes as well) is not what it used to be. also kids these days are just weird as fuck, they’ve all been exposed to so much at such a young age that every kid now has special needs that have to be catered to 24/7. i’ve always loved coaching kids, but if i were a college coach today i think id rather just work with adults. i’m not trying to deal with all of this:
  4. from second team all-mwc last year (16.5 ppg) to a consensus all american and naismith finalist this year. really nice job identifying and developing talent by Barnes. very few coaches who identify and develop underrated talent as well as rick barnes.
  5. i want to say it might have been NowThis? but i can’t remember for sure.
  6. vince young could easily be in a coma right now. if your reaction that fact/this video is to run to the internet to explain to everyone how it ain’t no rules in the street, you should be so embarrassed by who you are as a person that you just disappear from here like that one guy who exposed himself watching pegging porn. that guy >>>>> you.
  7. i didn’t read anything vic said after his first few sentences of his first internet tough guy post, because you couldn’t pay me to read the ramblings of an internet tough guy whose mind frame is stuck in middle school. adults who get into fist fights at bars are losers. adults who sucker punch people are even bigger losers. adults who go on the internet to talk about how it ain’t no rules in the street like they’re some gangster tough guy and not some dorky ass internet poster the biggest losers imaginable.
  8. if the lakers lineup was SGA, jimmy butler, luka, giannis, and embiid those FT numbers would still be indefensibly skewed in LAL’s favor.
  9. vince young gets sucker punched and knocked unconscious in a way that literally could have killed him, and a bunch of our posters’ reaction to that is to run in here and go, “all in the game bro! rules of the street! gotta keep your head on a swivel out here in these streets!” what are you, 12? buncha 38 year old “men” in jean shorts and karl kani polos posting on the internet about that thug life out here in these streets. wildly pathetic. embarrassing. everyone? or just the internet tough guys who yourself came in here to lambaste?
  10. lol wut. you couldn’t have posted a more inaccurate response. i say: ”adults getting fights is the lamest, most embarrassing shit ever.” and that’s your response? lol okie dokie!
  11. jesus christ, buncha shaggy tough guys who’ve never been in a fight in their lives rushing in here to tell everyone all about the rules of street fighting. “gotta keep your head on a swivel bro!! rules of the street!” buncha fucking losers. shouldn’t you guys all be at a bar somewhere reliving your HS glory days on the JV football team?
  12. except that vince wasn’t fighting anybody. didn’t swing on anyone. some fucking loser sucker punching him is such a pussy move. and adults getting fights is the lamest, most embarrassing shit ever.
  13. does he have a mid range game like booker? because that would be amazing. every year when i watch the tourney i see guards winning games by creating their own shot and hitting midrange jumpers. we haven’t had someone like that in a while.
