Rothstein on Charles Matthews

That doesnt come close to making sense. Did that sound better in your head or something? Why would a troll want other trolls banned? Completely goes against what they are trying to accomplish

Trolling is about getting a reaction. Why would a troll give two craps what other trolls are up to or if they are banned...

And it makes perfect sense as I read it again.

I hate to sound crass, but there is no "shine" in a college basketball sense for Dom. He's a great kid, and he will live a successful life because of his time at UK, but he will never play meaningful minutes here.

He will, however, get to continue to practice for years against future NBA players, experience that will make him better and help him garner a nice contract overseas.

Hawkins will never play meaningful minutes huh? Guess you missed the Elite 8 game against Michigan and the games that Dominique started last year. As far as him taking minutes from Briscoe...please....
 
DeAndre has made it in the pros... You don't get there without having great athletic ability. Let's be the judge as the season goes along.

Agreed. Liggins didn't have many highlight rim dunks, but the guy was a hell of an athlete. You can't be as great a guard/wing defender as Liggins was w/out having top-notch athleticism.

Nah, I didn't miss them, but I don't romanticize them either.

He's a good backup defender, but it's not happenstance that teams frequently left him wide open on the perimeter in those starts.

Dom gets the most out of his talent, and I respect the hell out of him. But on these rosters that Cal puts together, the "most of his talent" isn't, and will never be, enough to keep him on the floor.
