  1. Native metroplexian and 2nd yr player Tyrese dropped 31 points last night. I wonder what Josh Green and his 0.3 ppg has in store for us tonight.
  2. If you think that's weird then you haven't been paying attention.
  3. Anybody else see this dirty ass play
  4. More should definitely be made in the media about Okla St's sanctions. The lack of similar sanctions for South Carolina alone for the EXACT same violation by the EXACT same offender is absolute and total bullshit. How can the NCAA defend the difference in sanctions between the 2 schools? I don't think there's ever been a better test case than the South Carolina/Okla St judgments for an example of the NCAA's inequitable administration of sanctions from school to school.
  5. Quin Snyder would probably be their best hope, but I doubt he ever comes back to cbb.
  6. Coach K created the recruiting allure of Duke. They weren't anything special prior to him. In fact I'm really interested in what will happen to Duke after he leaves. If they don't hit the ground running they're at risk of turning into a UCLA or something like much lesser than their peak.
  7. I used to feel that way about Osaka, but after hearing about how she grew up and immense pressure and seclusion her parents put her through her issues seem much more legitimate than the bullshit Ben Simmons is pretending to go through.
  8. He was on ESPN for a bit, but chose to go his own route. I'm guessing he sees a bigger opportunity and a shitload more autonomy in growing his podcast/radio show and overall brand on his own.
  9. By people do you think they mean Americans? And more specifically, white Americans? I doubt that if the entire population of the planet were polled the results of that study would bare out the same conclusions. This phenomenon of caring for pets over human life is a cultural thing and probably a resulting effect afforded by relative comfort.
  10. Yeah but the Hawks understand what Cuban has never understood during his entire ownership tenure. The draft is a valuable part of team building and doing it well sets your team up with tradeable assets if the opportunity ever arises to trade for a big star. Cuban's Mavs have always chosen the hail mary route of free agency as the sole method of team building. We lucked out with 2 generational draft picks over a 20 year span, but outside of that the Mavs have been poorly run for the greater part of 2 decades.
  11. Judging by his fiance/wife's comments he's more of a granola type who tries every holistic remedy known to man before trying conventional medicine. She eats clay because some taxi driver told her about it. My guess is that his "holistic immunization" was her idea. Pussy will forever and always remain undefeated.
  12. The main issue is whether or not he followed the NFL prescribed protocols for unvaccinated players. Cole Beasley and others have been fined for not following protocols. This guy has just been behaving as if he's above it all.
  13. And the funny thing about McCarthy's work with Rodgers is I distinctly remember when McCarthy first got to Green Bay there was a lot of talk and reporting on how McCarthy and the Green Bay staff changed Rodgers' throwing motion which greatly improved his velocity and accuracy. Rodgers came from Jeff Tedford's, old school style of preloading your arm before throwing it. Anyone who played or watched high school football during the 80s and early 90s will remember how high school QBs back then would start their throwing motion with the football next to their earhole when dropping back to throw. McCarthy and staff changed this method with Aaron Rodgers. An example is discussed below: There was plenty of reporting on this when Rodgers was backing up Farve before everyone knew how good he was going to be. Now that Rodgers has had his falling out with McCarthy it's all but forgotten. Coach Mike McCarthy arrived in Rodgers’s second season, and he recognized the talent that spent Sundays holding clipboards. Since 1993, McCarthy has charted quarterbacks in five footwork drills that rate agility and movement. In his three backup seasons, Rodgers improved most in those areas, McCarthy said, to where he now ranks “at the top of all of them.” In what McCarthy calls his Quarterback School, Rodgers concentrated on tuning his fine motor skills: hand-eye coordination, finger dexterity, mechanics. He also lowered where he held the ball for a smoother, more consistent motion. By the end of Rodgers’s second year, McCarthy and Thompson saw him as a starter who happened not to start. With his quarterback coach, Tom Clements, Rodgers studied every play from the Packers’ previous season. He also took the spring practice repetitions when Favre stayed home in Mississippi. Between Rodgers’s second and third seasons, Quarterback School consisted of 10 hours in the film room and 3 hours on the practice field a week, an offensive study conducted in “painstaking detail,” Clements said. Eventually, Rodgers focused less on learning the Packers’ offense and more on clarifying why defenses ran certain coverages, schemes or fronts. Now, when Rodgers drops back to pass, he does not look for his receivers. He looks for defenders, where they are, where they might move, what that means or could mean. Then he throws for receivers headed toward open space. The way he practiced behind Favre also earned Rodgers the respect of teammates. While Favre retired and unretired and eventually left for the Jets in 2008, Rodgers and Clements studied every pass Tom Brady threw in his record-setting 2007 season. Rodgers took note of how Brady “controlled the defense with his eyes” on nearly every completed pass. https://www.nytimes.com/2011/12/03/sports/football/the-education-of-the-packers-aaron-rodgers.html
  14. I hear you but Allen is an undersized big who can't shoot. Yes he was the best player on a garbage team and is great around basket, but like Shareef Abdur-Raheem on the mid 90s early 00s Hawks, someone had to score the points. I'm not saying he definitely won't start but I can't see him starting over Mitchell and a healthy Dylan Disu.
  15. I dont think Allen is a guaranteed starter by the time we get to conference play. The only guys who are guaranteed by that time are Mitchell, Carr, & Disu. Outside of those 3, I can see any 2 of Allen, Jones, or Ramey starting. Just depends on whether Beard prefers offensive spacing over pounding the offensive boards.
  16. When it's all said and done I'm pretty sure Disu and Mitchell will be starting. Bishop was one of the 1st transfers Beard got and probably didn't anticipate Beard bringing in 3 more bigs who are clearly more offensively skilled than him. So Beard has his hands full maintaining a positive outlook for him. I'd gather starting him last night is part of that process. If Tyson can raise his intensity on the the defensive end and minimize the mental lapses there as well, he'll play a prominent role later in the season. That kid oozes talent. He seems like a Jarret Culver special and could possibly be our primary scorer next year.
  17. Tyson's size, fluidity, and shooting ability reminds me of Jordan Hamilton.
  18. You used to claim that every year and inevitably a bunch of us would remind you that you're wrong. I'm here again to mark the calendar.
  19. Dylan Disu's recovery will probably prevent him from beginning the season as a starter, but from what I'm hearing he's the main guy with 1st round NBA potential. And his slow recovery will probably be the reason we start the season with a 3 guard lineup rather than 3 bigs. F Mitchell F Allen G Jones G Ramey G Carr When Disu is full go he's replacing either Allen or Jones in the lineup from what I hear.
  20. Of course JJ brought up Duke destroying us in New Jersey that night. PJ said that game retired our black uniforms. Todd Wright was furious and said, "get those fucking uniforms out of here!!!"
  21. Here's the full podcast interview
  22. I love interviews like this. PJ'S pure authenticity is palpable. You could almost feel what he was feeling at that moment he was cut.
  23. Texas ball's response to the CBSsports intern who made that list.
  24. This is rich! Claiming I have IRRATIONAL feelings towards Brown while simultaneously admitting you not just loathe him but the newly introduced, megaloathing of him, is next level pot/kettle shit. Irrespective of that, I just disagree with you. That's all! I don't hate you. I value your contributions to this board and your bball insight. I realize the inclination to use any disagreement one has with you as an opportunity to claim martyrdom is strong within you, but it ain't that serious. When I think of God given talent I think of innate expressions of athleticism like running and jumping, or quickness. Or even traits like size and strength. A skill that even the best have to work on obsessively, like shooting, just isn't in that category for me.
  25. What exactly was "god given" about J'Covan Brown's talent? Especially compared to Isaiah Taylor? Brown was slow and unathletic yet consistently got to the basket with guile, change of pace, and intellect. His game is the epitome of the type of game that is the fruit of hard work and countless hours spent playing. Taylor is among the fastest and most explosive PGs we've had over the past 20+ years. Just because Taylor was lowly ranked relative to Brown doesn't make him a "try hard" who overcame athletic deficiencies. Taylor's poor ranking was a product of playing for inferior, low profile AAU squads. As well as a result of moving from California to Texas late in his high school career. However he had plenty of athleticism. He was similar to Ja Morant in that once people saw him, his talent was readily apparent but it was too late in the recruiting process for a lot of schools. I forget whether it was Bob Knight or Larry Brown who alerted Barnes to Taylor late in the recruiting cycle since we had an extra scholarship, but I can't thank either one of them enough. Brown may have been a knucklehead at times but he isn't exactly a guy I'd describe as "blessed with God- given talent".
