    Ten years ago... the Block. Where were you when that happened?

    Was moving into a new apartment (3rd floor), and the first thing I brought in was the TV, so I could hook it up to watch while I moved things in. Needless to say, I got distracted and didn't do a whole lot of moving, while my now ex-wife took on the brunt of the labor ... Can't help but wonder...

    Im sorry, but Tre Young

    Just like Cousins would be board enemy #1 if he'd gone to Loserville. It's like we love the guys who played for Kentucky or something. Weird.

    Im sorry, but Tre Young

    It's the equivalent of team issues, where winning cures everything. With individual players, talent cures everything. You can still kind of dislike them, but damn are they fun to watch. I first realized this back in the day with T.O. had he been a slightly above average WR, I'd have completely...

    Which player in the history of basketball would you choose to take a last second shot if your team is behind by 1 point?

    Can't go wrong with any of the top 4 in this list, imo. MJ, Kobe, Bird, LeBron ... Probably no coincidence 2 of them are most debated as the GOAT. My first thought was Shaq for the higher fg% look, but then I remembered you could just bring a guy off the bench to foul him 8 ft from the rim and...

    There are a lot of arguments about the greatest NBA player ever.

    It's that same weird logic that losing before you get to the Finals makes you better than making it there then losing.

    There are a lot of arguments about the greatest NBA player ever.

    You made me go and look it up. He played the last 17 regular season games. Also, yeah he sat out by being a professional athlete in a different sport, it's not like he was on the couch. The Bulls just got beat. Again, this is why the "he'd have won 8 in a row" argument is so silly to me, and...

    There are a lot of arguments about the greatest NBA player ever.

    Also I didn't see it pointed out, but people like to say he would've won 8+ in a row, if not for the baseball stint. Are we just going to gloss over the fact that his first year back Houston won it all? He was fresh and had already played a lot of regular season games, but they weren't good...

    Gonzaga vs seeds 1-3 all time (updated)

    So you're pumping up the big ten which was complete trash, and only looked good when they played each other? Lol, that entire conference was far more exposed in the tourney, and would've loved to have been good enough to have a team lose in the final 4, let alone the title game.

    Gonzaga's Recruiting

    No, no they're cheating! If Mark Few were a real coach, he'd take over the football team and take them to the playoffs, so the PAC-12 would be begging them to join. Can't you see it's all counterfeit?!

    Gonzaga's Recruiting

    I've really enjoyed it. People said dumb things, then backed themselves into a corner by doubling down and not admitting they're wrong. Now they get to watch the Zags play in another title game. Gee, who got exposed in this scenario? :D

    4-4-4-1 Recruiting Strategy?

    Why put quotas on the roster? Simplify, get the most talent you can. The real problem I've seen is with the X's and O's, not the Jimmy's and Joe's. Our offense is putrid, and we don't seem to have any sort of system. The DDMO is long dead, and we seemingly replaced it with letting the players...

    All the Gonzaga haters

    We'll still crush Gonzaga on draft night ... Where true champions are crowned :confused:
