The Goat Pen

I seem to remember a lot of droning here about how Dunlevy would be a bust in the league.

Kinda sad that a Duke player keeping an NBA paycheck as a journeyman is proudly noteworthy.

I dunno. I see people over at IC occasionally posting articles about Brendan Haywood and the like. What is amazing to me is how much these marginal players are making at the end of their careers. Both Dunleavy and Haywood have made well over $50 million in their careers. That's pretty crazy...

there's a definite place for role players on a team that can co exist with the star players

Happy 4th you assholes.

Jamal Murray

Big Time Canadian prospect

all of this was pioneered by Kevin Pangos (Zags) though, who used to face off with Wiggins in Toronto tournaments

Pangos caught ALOT of heat for playing out his highschool career in Canada and not going to a US Prep school, he blazed the trail and shut alot of people up

and the way teams travel now it's not a big factor

I will definitely be rooting for blue next year

I wanna see how this plays out.... I wanna say he's well grounded becuz he stayed up north for highschool

hope his folks arent helicopters

btw, pops is jamaican

BRAP!!!

I dont think hes one & done though

and apparently this whole NBA money Bonanza does not change the rookie scale contracts

those stay the same

Murray is projected to be a top 5 pick in next year's draft according to several NBA scouting reports.. Skal is projected as the top pick.. would make UK's 4th top pick.

Damn, this place is dead...

Why don't you join it.

Good one...

not enough interest in baseball to keep up posting I guess
I've had a crazy summer with work and outside interests - I haven't had much time for anything else.

You could elaborate on your outside interests...

Poor Hedgie. No one to chat with on the corn farm.

I only bring them up when its a story worth telling

and lets face it, the bar is pretty low for me to begin with on what I consider worth telling.

Better than Rat, though. The bar doesn't get much lower than "I took a dump on my neighbor's porch last night"...

Austin Nichols is leaving Memphis.

He's butt-hurt over a girl, but the truth of the matter is he should have gone to Duke when he had the opportunity...he'd have a NC and be in the talk for this year's lottery...

Oh, and Memphis is not releasing him from his commitment, either...which I'm fine with, because he's acting like a petulant little bitch...his dad is 100% behind this...
