Gotdamn, that bitch interviewing the Cleveland GM is a giant...either that or that Cleveland guy is a dwarf.

Well, the bitch is eye-to-eye with Kyrie Irving, so I guess it's a little of both.

[Owlman]

Don't let her get on top. She'll break your hips.

[Bluecat]

So, Kyrie Irving and Derrick Williams get banished to Cleveland and Minnesota. If you're Cleveland do you take Irving and hope Kanter or another big man drop to No. 4? Or do you take Derrick Williams and snag Brandon Knight or Kemba Walker at 4?

[Owlman]

yes

[TheBigMook]

If I'm Cleveland, I park my car in the garage, close the door, and leave the engine running until the sweet arms of death embrace me and release me from my living hell.

20+ years later, Mook continues the rivalry.

Damn skippy

[Ron Mexico]

Faust recommits, Hill on board, things might actually be looking up for this program. Too late for next year though, we're going to suck balls again for at least one more campaign.

[aTm]

A&M is going to the Final Four next year.

[Hizzy III]

Y'all do have a very good women's team. I wouldn't be surprised.

[eCat]

Anthony Grant pulls in Lacey to Alabama.

[Ron Mexico]

Apparently this Walker guy isn't coming as an administrative assistant or non-recruiting assistant. Whatever.

[aTm]

As in, not coming at all?

[aTm]

We stil have him listed on our staff on our website, so maybe not. I guess Katz was just wrong.

[onion eyed gudgeon]

I'm guessing Onion is now a really big Suns fan.

There's your fixation again, dude. With all things gay.

Seriously who cares if the Suns GM is a mudshark? Hell, the NBA is full of them.

[Ron Mexico]

Originally he was going to come, but it fell through for whatever reason. I don't really know too much about the guy and at this point I don't care since we filled the 3 real assistant spots with good hires. There was some worry that he'd be a full assistant but once it turned out that that wasn't the case, it became almost irrelevant.

[eCat]

it would seem that UK is going to play St. John's next year. I think most of us assumed it would be UConn.

Should be a good game with the talent both teams will be putting on the floor.

Separated at Birth?



The She-Will forehead is a dead giveaway.

[Bklyn]

distance in eye separation makes a discussion ridiculous.
