Welp guess I’ll go back to shooting heroin.
Moving all day so took this one in via Leach and Treyville. Sounds like I made the right call (as if I had a choice lol).
Oh well. Win a few in St. Louie, grab a 4-6 seed and hope for some help in the bracket for once.

"We reverted today. We didn't pass to each other. I have no idea why."
You're paid $8,000,000 a year to know why, John. Figure it out.

Gal signed us up for 8am(you read that right, EIGHT AM on vacation)zip lining which was awesome out here in the desert after choosing to go to Blue Man Group at 10pm last night. GOOD JOB, GOOD EFFORT! But actually not that upset about it after how this game went down.
Hanging in and even a little momentum -> Washington Vando get 2 fouls -> insert Diallo, Richards and Wenyen -> the get blazing hot because we can't guard the drives -> down 15 in 4-5 minutes. Difference in the game. Played decent around that.
Must have 3 of these on the court at all times:
Knox
Vando
Washington
Green
SGA
Must not have more than 2 of these at any time, preferably 1.
Richards
Diallo
Wenyen
Sasha

Kansas down 23 late to a team that is currently 7-10 in the awful Big 12, so that's something.
I guess.

We spell it the feminine way until he proves otherwise.
I mean, silver lining and all. But the 4 seed was the best bet for us to win the Title and not help our seed.
Auburn won't beat them again, and now UK only has to play one of Florida or Tennessee.

One of Richards biggest problems is he doesn’t give enough effort. I don’t know if he thinks he’s playing hard, but he definitely isn’t. You don’t get beaten for loose balls and rebounds as consistently as he does if you’re going 100%.
Bottom line is right now he is a terrible basketball player and does worse than give us nothing. He’s a net positive for opponents.
He shouldn’t play another minute this year if he doesn’t show drastic immediate improvement. If he gets pissy and wants to transfer over it, so be it.

Back on February 11th after they beat Pittsburgh by 34 to go to 18-8. :sunglasses:[thumb2]
I mean, for Ole Miss Thad Matta would be a grand slam.
Issue is he can't move. His back is beyond effed up. During the tourney last year Huggins and Roy Williams made it to a HS Tourney game here in Columbus, OSU without making the tourney sent an assistant cause Thad couldn't move.
Matta in a wheelchair on sideline would still be a home run for Ole Miss, if it's not a grand slam.
At least other teams have to account for Wenyen. Florida was basically not even guarding Richards or Diallo...it makes it so difficult on SGA and Knox when they are essentially being double teamed because we are playing 3 on 5 on offense.
Hell, at least Sasha can hit that midrange J and not bobble a rebound or pass when it hits him square in the hands.
For all Cal’s stuff about “I can’t hide you” he sure does have certain guys he treats with kid gloves. Those guys aren’t getting that leash in the G League.
- Richards plays like a guy who knows he doesn’t know how to play basketball. I hear the “no hands” stuff but I think a lot of the time that stuff comes down to lack of confidence.
- Yeah, I know we’ve been at this move for two months and moving today for 12 hours but would it have been so hard for the lass to humor my sentimentality tonight? Come on- I bought this place when I was 26. Give me nostalgia some acknowledgement. :grimace: Bitches be unsentimental.
- Best two weeks of the year, so I don’t know, maybe fake some confidence for the sake of happiness, you skeptical bitches.
- When push comes to shove, I want Carolina and their **** fans to suffer more than Duke and their **** fans. It’s close but clear.

UNC are a bunch of phonies. Always have been.
Didn't get a chance to watch Duke v UNC, has Duke figured out defense or did UNC just runny ish down their leg?
UNC and Duke are both winning titles while we dick off in elite eights/final fours. But, whatever. Getting boatraced by SEC slapdicks has been a good distraction.

^ eh. Duke has 2 titles during Cal's run, UNC has 1. Kentucky also has 1, irrc.
Gary Trent Jr., 6'6, who's a better athlete than given credit for and arguably has the sweetest J in the nation is nowhere to be seen on any draft board, while Diallo checks in on all of them.
LOL

This seems to happen quite a bit with our guys, and it pisses me off a little, but it also should demonstrate to recruits you don’t have to be as good at Kentucky as you do other places. Kentucky effect is a real thing.
Diallo, with his OMG best ever vert, got a straight line full head of steam drive to the bucket, double clutched, got blocked by two guys barely jumping. I mean, he should be putting his head on the rim and trying to dunk shot that...one would think.
^ as I've said all season, his athleticism (his only real attribute) doesn't translate to the basketball floor at ALL unless it's a breakaway situation.
Different players entirely, but he needs to look out west to Malik Newman to see it's okay to stick around in college, gradually improve your game, and win. If that kid, of all people, can suck it up and realize he's nowhere near the prospect he was once thought to be, Hami can.

Veritcal jump in basketball is quickly becoming the combine 40 in football.
Means absolutely nothing. Hami is alot of things, but explosive isn't one of them. Laterally he is quite average, and his vertical jump rarely shows itself in game situations. He plays as flat footed as any guard labelled explosive that I can remember during the Cal era. Totally agree with BBdK and the Gary Trent thing, but just like Booker did if Trent had come here he'd be a first round projection no doubt.
Drives me nuts that there is this stigma if you aren't one and done here then you've failed, which creates a ton of unneeded pressure.
I'd give a finger to trade Hami for Lamb on this team.

WCS hung around here for 3 years and ended up in the Top 10. It still happens especially with big men.
Buddy Hield is a good example for a guard.

Not many player’s games I’ve hated more than WCS and Richards. I wish we never had em. Thank God Richards likely won’t have the opportunity to cost us in the biggest basketball game ever. Great kids though. WCS actually loved school and lived for art. Nick escaped the rough streets of Jamaica to chase his dreams and end generational poverty. Wow, how about that.
WCS was f*cking awesome. Especially after he developed into a defensive monster. Loved that dude. If you want to talk about worthless sacks of crap on the court, I'm gonna offer for your consideration Skal Labissierre.
I'll offer up Daniel Orton. No one worse.
