Happen all the time? Are you serious? How many of these kids families' can afford 20K fa
Dude, we all caught on to you a while back. You can drop the fake UK fan bit.
I hate how insecure our fan base is, are we really going to compare Tayshaun to Luol Deng? Tay Tay happened to play on a great Pistons team with no individual superstar but with a lot of great contributors like Chauncey, Rip, Rasheed, etc
Deng is the 4th best SF if the playoffs right now behind Kawhi, PG13 and LeBron according to PER.

Prince never made an All-Star team and Mashburn has only one All-Star appearance.
Deng is a 2x All Star who's peaking right now.
Peaking right now? Do you really believe this? The dude averaged 18 and 7 in his 3rd year and is down to 12 and 6 at age 31. If you're going to argue stupid things at least don't be an idiot.
Remind us again who shut down Kobe in the 2004 Finals as a second year pro. Or how about Allen Iverson and T Mac the year before, in the 2003 playoffs, as a rookie? Do you remember any of that or did you conveniently forget?! Just curious. [eyeroll]

Deng actually was playing pretty awful this season until he started getting minutes at the 4.
Deng couldn't hold Mashburn's jock strap. Deng is on the downside of his career. He's hardly peaking. You seriously need to bend over and pull your head out of your Dukie ***.
Deng isn't even sniffing Mashburn's level. That dude could have been a HOF'er if injuries hadn't riddled his career.
I don't care if Hawkins doesn't play another second, asking him to give up his scholly would be complete BS.
I agree. It was BS when we did it with Estill too(for rashaad freakin carruth of all people).
Antoine was better than Deng as well.
UK has had plenty of SFs better than Deng. That guy is clearly a Duke fan, or just one of the dumbest UK fans I've ever seen.
Pretty pathetic to troll under a UK screen name while being a Duke fan.
That's pretty pathetic.
That's pretty pathetic.
If only there were a board where posters would welcome such sustained effort to make the case that a Duke player was better than a Wildcat player. I know one place that is NOT welcome. Here.
Dan Issel scored 27,482 pts in his career. Only missed 15 games. Known as the "Horse" because of his durability. In his 6 seasons in ABA he lead the league in scoring 3 times. Although only one all star appearance with Nuggets, he would be a household name had he played for Boston, L.A. Etc. anywY my point is I would consider him top 25 all time.
one would almost think he's embarrassed to be a Duke fan?
just sayin'
Yeah, beats me, BKO.
I have no idea what he thinks he is getting out of playing a "UK fan".
I actually think Shane Battier would be in the mix as an all-time greatest if he hadn't been born with his brain on the outside of his skull.
On other fans posing as part of the BBN, my thoughts for you are this:
There's a man who leads a life of danger
To everyone he meets he stays a stranger
With every move he makes
Another chance he takes
Odds are he won't live to see tomorrow.

I would pose as a UK fan if I was a Duke fan too. I would want to know what being a winner felt like.
Um, yeah that's really not the kind of smack talk for Duke. IU sure, but Duke has won 2 titles in the last 6 yrs, so......
Just sayin'.
I'd take Mercer over Deng as well. Very short NBA career but he was worlds better than Deng. Dude was an absolute stud at UK. Speaking of Mercer....[banana]
Don't use words such as we and our because you are not part of the Big Blue Nation. Wall, Davis, Towns and Boogie are all franchise type players that Cal brought into the league and it time some or all of them will become Iconic players. However there are many solid players from Uk that may have long fruitful careers as well such as Randle, Booker, Knight, Teague, Lyles, Bledsoe, WCS, Ulis, Murray and others that Cal has brought to the NBA on a short period when for years there were just a few journeyman players from UK.
for a second I thought you said peeking.....and I was going to ask what he was doing at Minardi
mashburn wasn't a very good nba player
neither was mercer
deng is a fairly easy call over either

I keep seeing this repeated, but I don't see how it can be true...scholarships are annual contracts. If that's the case how can the NCAA force a school to renew a player? I think the rule is you can't go off scholarship then back on. I'm pretty sure that's what the rule once was, though it may've changed in the last 8 or 10 years?
You mean the same Deng that hasn't once averaged as many points in a single season, as Mashburn averaged for his career? Mashburn wasn't the greatest, but you might want to do a little fact checking before throwing lines like this out.
