Was he also able to give an update on Matt Pilgrim’s beast-mode status? Or Josh Carrier successfully making 8,432 consecutive three-pointers in a row? J/K

We have all done that one time or another.I meant the 3. Fat fingers hit the 2 on my cell phone. Sorry bout that.
Yeah, true, but it is better than no news. Thanks OP.I'm sorry to rain on the parade, but these practice updates are useless. How many years now do we here that every player is a beast in practice, but come showtime in the fall/winter, they not as advertised?
i agree for the most part.It's been a whopping 3-4 months since the end of our season, yet somehow two players that were "meh" in Feb/March are suddenly "faster" (Ugonna) and "more under control" (Thiero), and one player is "improving on defense and finishing around the rim" (Reeves). Players not playing in any kind of competition for 3-4 months aren't just going to magically return more skilled. Now if your buddy said "put on weight", "looks ripped", or "leaned out", that would be more believable.
I say take this "report" and next month's Canada trip with a tiny, non-visible grain of salt, and wait until the first of January after we have a couple months of real games behind us.
Just say you don’t believe the practice report and be done with it.It's been a whopping 3-4 months since the end of our season, yet somehow two players that were "meh" in Feb/March are suddenly "faster" (Ugonna) and "more under control" (Thiero), and one player is "improving on defense and finishing around the rim" (Reeves).

Oh good Lord! Lighten up Nancy! It was a joke. I’ll make sure to check with you going forward to make certain all of my future posts meet your self-righteous levels of holiness and maturity. Thanks for keeping me in line.Childish post.
I guess Ugo will transfer next year if he doesn’t get the minutesI’m definitely all for that too. I truly hope the plan isn’t for Ugo to start
-Boston was a killer, those warehouse videos were legit.We get these every year. I mean every year.
Yeah, but they're not accurate.I enjoy it! Nothing else to talk about this time of year, and with Canada coming up, it's good to get some practice reports.
If they win a lot in Canada that would be a great sign. The teams they will play are good teams, it’s not like the Bahamas games. Baylor went 1-9 last season I’m pretty sure during this tournamentIt's been a whopping 3-4 months since the end of our season, yet somehow two players that were "meh" in Feb/March are suddenly "faster" (Ugonna) and "more under control" (Thiero), and one player is "improving on defense and finishing around the rim" (Reeves).

Right Prince was great offensively . He was equal parts D and O . Why he was so freaking great here.Bro, Tayshaun averaged 17ppg as upperclassman. He scored nearly 1800 pts at UK. Dropped 41 in a NCAAT game and has the single most electrifying offensive moment in Rupp history minus maybe Dirk Minnifield dunk and I doubt that. I thought walls were going to cave in at Rupp. Bleachers were noticeably shaking for that UNC 3pt barrage.
So are you talking just NBA?
I will be happy winning 2 games in Canada honestly. This isn't like the Bahamas . We are playing teams who should beat us .If they win a lot in Canada that would be a great sign. The teams they will play are good teams, it’s not like the Bahamas games. Baylor went 1-9 last season I’m pretty sure during this tournament
You have to admit, Porter did surprise us...unless you knew he was a pedo.-Boston was a killer, those warehouse videos were legit.
-Sasha Killea Jones couldn't be stopped.
-Greene can't miss.
-Whitney is going to own college basketball
-Mark Coury is a monster, don't sleep on him
-Michael Porter is going to surprise errbody.
Every year.
Hart will be a great 4 year player, I really hope he sticks around.Why would anybody who had watched Hart for more than 5 minutes be surprised by his athleticism?
Clarke getting hurt torpedoed that team, but BJ def did not live up to the hype. Also anybody that saw Whitney in all star games knew he was not the real deal.I like reading practice reports, and tend to get excited. But I do remember That practice reports said that Boston and Clarke were MJ and Scottie Pippin 2.0 That team rewired my brain in a bad way. Ain't been the same sense.
Would love to just bring Ugo in to swat and alter everything when the other team is in an offensive groove. Just throw them off and disrupt them. Especially if we are letting teams get to the basket all night like we have a habit of.I’m definitely all for that too. I truly hope the plan isn’t for Ugo to start
I’d be happy with 2 years, A Sophomore Reed/Hart backcourt would be a good start for next year.Hart will be a great 4 year player, I really hope he sticks around.
Not to look too far ahead but I will be interested to see who they bring in at guard next year because honestly I think those two would be an amazing college back Court.I’d be happy with 2 years, A Sophomore Reed/Hart backcourt would be a good start for next year.
I'm not ready to say those two would make an amazing college backcourt before either has played a minute of college basketball. But I do agree that I'm excited about the possibility/likelihood of both coming back next year. I think PG is going to end up being Shepherd's best college position, while I expect 2G to be Hart's.Not to look too far ahead but I will be interested to see who they bring in at guard next year because honestly I think those two would be an amazing college back Court.
Sophomore Sheppard starting would be pretty cool.I’d be happy with 2 years, A Sophomore Reed/Hart backcourt would be a good start for next year.
Did he mention who’s actually running the practices?All of this is too good to be true.... what are you not telling us OP?
Oh, I think they would, maybe not as Sophomores. I’m pretty sure Cal will recruit over them every year though, that’s why I said IF Hart sticks around 4 years.I'm not ready to say those two would make an amazing college backcourt before either has played a minute of college basketball.

Seems we have been hearing the same thing for the past few years, how great everybody looks, then the season starts........I'm sorry to rain on the parade, but these practice updates are useless. How many years now do we here that every player is a beast in practice, but come showtime in the fall/winter, they not as advertised?
Very true and damn, I forgot about the pedophilia stuff. So bad.You have to admit, Porter did surprise us...unless you knew he was a pedo.
Hart didnt come here to stay here for 4 years, he thinks he's a Herro!Oh, I think they would, maybe not as Sophomores. I’m pretty sure Cal will recruit over them every year though, that’s why I said IF Hart sticks around 4 years.
Oh, I'm pretty sure he joined a long time ago. You just know him by other names......Joined less than 30 days ago and already has sources on how good we are going to be based off lob drills.
We’re back baby!!!
