It's pretty unbelievable what these NBA guys are getting paid. Look at Marvin Williams. #2 pick in the draft, he hasn't been a bust by any means, but you'd like to get more out of a #2 pick than what he's done. He's a career 11ppg/5 rpg, which isn't bad, but pretty pedestrian, and after this year, he will have earned $56 million for his career. He has averaged over $7 mil per year over the past 5 years, looks like he's due for a cut in salary next year, but you know somebody will pay him 2 or 3 mil a year. That's pretty amazing that that level of performance is worth that much money...

the NBA loves 11/5 role players though

Tyler Hansbrow is pretty happy about that, although he is actually an 8/5 guy. On the bright side, his per 36 minute numbers are better than both Tayshun Prince's and Mike Dunleavy's...

Welp, so much for a George Lynch type of senior leader, McAdoo just declared...

Bluecat/Jungle Rat - you guys considering getting tickets to the final four in Indianapolis next year? I'm planning on going and just driving back - although I might get a room at the Marriott across from Lucas for Monday night if I can reserve it at my corporate rate early.
I'd be up for that.

Wilbon just went on a rant about UK fans. Told Kornheiser he'd bet him any amount he wants that Calipari will leave this year

We only do that when the player is boinking an assistant coach's wife or has a psychopath for a mother...

Sadly enough, that's probably your greatest victory ever in here. Hell, your greatest victory ever, period...

Having Forte leave early sent the program back so far, he could have been the ACC all time leading scorer. Ford was a drunk at the time as well

It took Donavan 32minutes to figure out to get the ball to young in the post, He should have 50 tonight but Billy the Kidd does understand throw it inside.

Young scored 3 in a row and they dotn go to him and that is ball game terrible coaching, Billy DOnavan sucked tonight

If Roy Williams coach UNC would have walked away with this tourney neither of these teams are any good.

When you can't make the easy shots & throw up a bunch of stupid shots this is what happens. Florida was schooled. Fuck.
