NBA Combine Measurements, Results, Early Entrants
- Thread starter TheResistance
- Start date
Veesar and Evans announced they're staying in the draft.
This offseason reminds me far too much of the the azz whippin UofL put on UK in Stokely back in 1983. Just outclassed across the board.
Or he goes all in on him and whiffs like he did with Stokes and we get left with nobody. Double edged sword to put all your chips in a dudes basket. If you lose out, you look like an idiot. If you don't go all in and get someone else, you look like an idiot for not taking the risk. Lose lose for Pope in that one, but mostly because that's our reality. If we had Cal, or prime Pitino, we'd have gotten Ament without HAVING to "go all in." He's going to be more of a star at the next level than Boozer, I bet. A 6'9+ small forward vs an undersized 6'8 PF.
It will move quickly, because for him to weigh the guaranteed second round offer with a return to college contract, his agent certainly is speaking with colleges.
Rumors were buzzing he was considering coming back- I heard them too. This is definitely good news in the Moreno tug of war.
It really needs to move to 2 year contracts in college, or more. That way the colleges know they're getting at least a year or more out of the athlete, but then the athletes will start finding ways to not play out of fear of getting injured. If changes aren't made soon, colleges may start recruiting players they DON'T think are good enough to make the NBA after a year. The needle is going to move.
Definitely, especially with Veesar announcing he’s staying in as well(would probably draft him over Moreno)
I come in peace…but thought some of you guys would think this was funny! All in fun

That was funny, but I am now not sure what “clutch win” means. Beating Duke, not a clutch win, even though he told his team in advance what Flagg was about to do. Comeback win against Zags? Not clutch. Wins over UT, UF, St J, Arky, Miss St, TAMU, Vandy …
I mean if UK played in the ACC, clutch wins would be few and far between because you rarely play a top 25 team. But, the definition evades me. Clearly.

I’ve always thought that was really dumb, though.
it isn’t like the truth isn’t going to come out…plus, you’d think the truth would actually be helpful because if you are abusing opponents at 5’10, it speaks even more to your skills or attributes like quickness, etc.
I think that mock is a bit wacky. He has Ament falling to 18th and I know this draft is much better than normal but there is just no way that happens.
