They nailed my good side. What do you think of my quarantine look?
I think I see tits.
The more the nba pushes that garbage league the more I hope it fails. They could field a team in my neighborhood and I still wouldn’t watch a single game of that crap.
Cats are getting Hardy and keeping Jackson. TyTy signs. Brooks departs. Mintz stays gone. Ware comes back.
That's basically the roster for next year, along with what we already know.
You heard it here first.

Cal is undoubtably making a late push for Hardy. To me, going the college route would be the smart and most logical choice. It’s going to be really difficult for him to increase his draft stock playing in the G League, as opposed to college.
I think all these “experts” saying it’s 100% G League are either doing a CYA or Hardy has already taken $ from the G League. That’s the one thing that I’m worried about. Whether or not he’s already bound to the G League or not. If that were the case, though, I couldn’t see Cal pursuing him this hard. Gonna be a longgggggggg week!

That still makes me ill. Imagine that 1998 team with T Mac! Obviously we still won the title that year, but just having T Mac as a former player would’ve been awesome.
The other one that really stings is Iverson. That one probably stings even worse than T Mac. Probably the best “small” guard of all time.
Not quarantining but still wearing my mask at the store and not hanging out with people who aren't vaccinated. I guess that picture was taken in the parking lot.
Good lord I can’t imagine this place if disaster was to strike and we get neither
I love AI but feel no sting whatsoever that he didn't come to Kentucky. In his one year at Georgetown, Kentucky just so happened to have the greatest college basketball team I have ever seen. I wouldn't trade anything for what that team was.
I watched his documentary the other night for the 2nd or 3rd time. As good as he was, he wasn't what that 96 Cats team needed. That team needed nothing. He could've been a disruption as much as anything.
Someone needs to post the Cal “swag” gif! Y’all know the one!
It seems like the G League is great for maintaining stock. Guys like Green, Kuminga, etc. didn't drop. So a guy like Cade would have been fine going that route.
But if you're a kid like Hardy who isn't currently projected number one, but who wants a chance to do so, I think college provides the potential boost for that. The risk is higher too, though. If he struggles, he can fall out of the first round, however unlikely that is.
All that said, I think Hardy has been done to the G League and nothing is changing. I hope I'm wrong, obviously, but even the "buzz" we're hearing is all "if he weren't going to the G League..."
While I would love to add Hardy to our roster, I hope he doesn't commit, only to change his mind later. We would be up the proverbial creek at the point guard position if his commitment costs us TyTy and then a few weeks later decides to take the G League money.
I can’t disagree with that. Actually, AI played two years in college. He had to sit out one year, which would’ve been his freshman season for those legal issues, 1993-1994. Technically, if the “brawl” never happened he would’ve been here two seasons: 1994 and 1995. I think that’s all accurate anyway.
I don’t think he would cost us TyTy. Cal has been pitching them as a package deal. Plus, Hardy would be mainly a SG.
Wow, brainfart on my part even having just watched the documentary. Unimaginable today that a talent like Iverson played more than one year of college basketball.I can’t disagree with that.

Nonetheless, I wouldn't have replaced any of the guys from that era with Iverson. Not even Epps. Crazy, I know.
Yeah, I had to go look it up awhile back. Very hard to believe he played two years in college.
I don’t mean to replace him with anyone necessarily. I’m just saying it would’ve been nice to have had him on those teams. Not 1996, but 1994 and 1995. Would’ve been insane.
I've always said, if you're going to bring in these one-and-done guys, they need to be top shelf guys, Jaden Hardy is top shelf and I hope Tyty is too.
If Cal gets both to add to Allen, CJ and Grady, well that's a hell of a backcourt.
If he can still get Mintz back too, he can go with a 4 guard set anytime he wants.
I prefer veteran players, but anyone Cal gets out of the transfer portal, will be a 1 year guy anyway, so he might as well go with the most talented and polished guy.
I think JH likes the spotlight based on his tweets, if that's the case, he has to know there is no spotlight in the GL, nobody watches it. But $500k+ is really tough to pass up.
I don't know what to think on this one.

Quit getting your hopes up
The one guy I wish did play at UK.
One of the most effortless scorers
I pray you all don't get upset when Hardy doesn't pick us Sarurday. His college eligibility is already over, let's just leave it at that.
At least the Washington news will be the same day. Hopefully that prevents anyone from going off the deep-end.

You got some big, swingin' tits, that's for sure! Will you be appearing in next month's issue of Hirsute Putsuit?
I am pretty sure I dated her once.
I’ve already picked out a perfect spot on my wall to punch.
In retrospect, I’m glad we didn’t get McGrady. Who knows what it would have done to the chemistry? I mean, they won the championship. What else could they have done?
I hope he picks UK just so that one guy has to shave his *** and glue the hair to his face for a week.
If Hardy picks us, I’ve decided to shave @GonzoCat90 ’s *** and wear it as a mustache instead. With Gonzo’s permission, of course.
We land an elite player and I free up a Sunday evening. Perfect.
I’ll provide the glue. I have a large assortment of glues/adhesives.
We may have 3 SG's but we have ZERO Jaden Hardy's on this team. This kid is an absolute bucket getter. Steph curry range. If Cal and the squad pull this one out, wow! Would love to add this kid to the team on any given year, no matter who or what is on the roster.
So find some booster money and pay him a million. Done deal.
Also does anyone even know where to watch G league games and see information about it? I check ESPN, CBSSports quite often and don’t recall one article about the Gleague players all year. No scores or anything promoted.
Of course the winner is money but thats where the discussion starts, not ends. The G League is a wasted year so far as brand development is concerned. The very top kids should never consider the G League, not seriously at least. The average fan does not and will not watch the G League. If one considers the tax consequences, how could 750K ever be better in the long run over developing name recognition and a long term fan base. The G League simply can't compete with that. Its great for some I guess but the top guys should use every bit of branding a top college program can give them.
Ive caught one game in the early afternoon during a week day...think it was espn2 or espnews. Pretty sure they get zero primetime games.
I mean Hardy may want quick money and I get that but there is no comparison to how much more hype he would enter the draft coming out of UK than the G league IMO. I think off court earnings would more than make up for that 500k on one year playing quicker in the G league.
