Make them shoot from the perimeter

Like I said, I had been locked out due to a weird error and hadn’t posted all year. I have lots of built up thoughts.

I haven’t seen this mentioned for a while, but a lot of people mentioned early in the year that his dribble just looked off and they couldn’t explain why. I offer the explanation that it’s because he does what hasn’t been done in basketball in the US for a long time, he dribbles on top of the ball. Everyone else dribbles behind or on the side of the ball. Amari dribbles like a throwback that hasn’t been seen so long that it doesn’t look normal anymore. I think he dribbles as originally intended by the rules of basketball; he doesn’t carry.

How will they call it? Will they let middle finger push & slap all game? Butler has got to stay out of foul trouble and so does OO,

... between the college and NBA level...

Which level has bigger balls?

That other thread just begged the question. Anyone here know?

Both could be the answer but I did put OR in the question.

Just so I don't have to be concerned about them, I think I'd rather see them blown out. But, to have Cal make one more boneheaded decision and cost another team a chance at a FF would be kind of sweet, too.

The last few years of his era, I went from severe dislike to completely loss of interest - could not care less how the team did as I knew his heart wasn't in it anymore and he was just going through the motions. And insulting fans who called his arrogant butt on it.

I like Pope a lot and he has begun the process of rekindling my fanhood for UK BB.

Please send that puke orange color home tonight.

I will be pulling for you the rest of the tournament get on a darn run and win it all!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For most of modern basketball history there’s been a general idea that big men have a harder time shooting free throws because they have such huge hands. My question is, how true is this? Michael Jordan said himself that one of his huge competitive advantages was that he had huge hands. Now we’re seeing so many stretch 4s and stretch 5s at the college and pro levels that shoot outside shots at a high level, surely they have huge hands. On the opposite side of that, if you look at the basketball in Amari’s hands, it’s the size of a tennis ball to most normal people and it’s pretty obvious that complicates his shooting motion. What’s the reality? How does hand size actually affect a player’s shot percentage, particularly at the free throw line?

May just be my router…but this is much worse than usual.

Doubt we get much until after our game.

What’s the scene looking like around the stadium/downtown? Mostly blue and Purdue fans?

Nothing is shocking anymore, but this would surprise me. Mark Turgeon left A&M for Maryland, but I think A&M is a better job than Maryland now. Buzz is a Texas native and well liked. There is zero chance Maryland could outbid A&M for him, if A&M's wants to keep him. Seems like a good fit for the Aggies.

I really don’t want our run to end. And especially don’t want it to end to them low down. Dirty. Snitches.

I just want to know?

Evidently, fans are starting to send Amari some Weetabix – a compressed cereal bar from the UK (the imperialist one, not the bourbon one). The food came up in the post-game interview and Pope was giving him a hard time about it.

I'm waiting for it to become a meme.

Will be interesting to see if this starts a trend with other players in the league taking this role at their alma mater.


Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry has accepted a role with his alma mater Davidson College as an assistant general manager for the basketball programs, university officials told ESPN.

Curry becomes the first active player in U.S. major professional sports to take an administrative job with an NCAA team.

In his new role, Curry, who played three seasons at Davidson (2006-09), will provide guidance to the men's and women's teams based on his college and professional experience.

He'll work with general manager Austin Buntz, a former Under Armour global sports marketing team member. Curry first signed with Under Armour in 2013 and launched his own Curry Brand as a standalone venture with the company in 2020. He also signed a lifetime contract shoe deal in recent years.

As many NC...as many FF. Didn't run out on Kentucky... didn't come back to our most hated rival. Truth is truth people. I'm glad Cal beat his a$$

A friend of mine just told me he heard this. Luigi something. Anyone else hear about this?

Cal gonna Cal.

If you know ,., YOU KNOW
