Bullshit! Garnett was going to come to Carolina. He Shammond cousin!
Well, I heard Kentucky...from him. It was direct, so maybe Carolina was in the running too. But, I never heard Carolina as the place he intended to go.

clearly he lied to you

See! If some derelict can make a bogus national championship shirt before the game even starts, the NCAA can make a blue hat by the time it's over....

If McAdoo can parlay a 15 point performance in the Elite Eight into a lottery spot, Doran Lamb should be in the top 5 after tonight...

I mistyped that anyway...it was NOT direct. I've never had a convo with KG. My bad...late typing.

But I did hear it from someone who said they heard it from him...and it was back in '95.
The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.

I'm kidding. I have no idea where KG was going but he is cousins with Shammond Williams and a lot of people in NC seem to have thought he was going to play for Dean.

speaking of Brandan Wright, I wonder how many top recruits have turned into forgotten memories over the past 10 years. Do many dook fans still think about Luol Deng?

interesting how UK seems to be alone in obsessing over the number of championships it's won.

"damn, Brandan Wright. I've completely forgotten about that guy until now. is he in the NBA?"

He's been a bust for the most part, injured for the majority of his NBA career, but he has been playing pretty well of late. He's playing backup to Brendan Haywood in Dallas, making close to $1 million a year, so he's not doing too bad. Haywood, OTOH, is making close to $8 million a year and has a 4 year contract that tops out at $10 million in 2015, and his numbers aren't really that much better than Wrights. Go figure...

back home with the family now. This is surreal.
I like the stinky pinky but only up to the first knuckle, I do not want a GD thumb up there--I've told her multiple times and I always catch her when she tries to pull a fast one---it's my butthole for Chrissakes I'm gonna know--so cut out the BS.

Not to quibble, but Luol Deng is a borderline superstar. There's no comparison b/w him and Brandan Wright...

I feel for those Kansas kids. Watching the post game presser, they are all good kids - don't talk shit , play hard, good attitudes.
