Wiggins expected to be back this week. Finally announced the issue was a family medical thing.

Every Carolina fan with half of a brain knew that team was a year away, but even with that, they should have beaten Wisconsin.

Looks like UK has a salary cap issue

Oscar Tschiebwe is probably worth about $4m in NIL money, but there isn't enough NIL money to go around for all the studs Cal has coming in next year.

Rather than potentially miss out on his best recruiting class, it appears that Cal is pushing Oscar out of the nest to seek his fortune either in the NBA or the transfer portal. At least that what is seems to appear.

Cal stated immediately after the loss to Kansas St that he expects all 6 seniors to leave, then 2 days ago he announced Oscar will enter his name into the NBA draft - Oscar meanwhile hasn't said shit

He made a over $2m last year with NIL money as the returning NPOY and an AA, and only at UK will the coach push that player who by many accounts wants to return, away from the program.

I hear Tschiebwe and Bacot are pretty tight. I'd love to see those two manning the post in Chapel Hill. We've got plenty of roster spots available...

Jordan’s oldest brother still lives in Fayetteville after retiring as a Sgt. Major with over 30 years of service, and before Jordan bought a place in Charlotte, he would often stay with family whenever he came back. This was even after he became the world wide celebrity he was/is. When in Fayetteville, he would play golf with a local attorney who’s a heavy hitter at UNC and a local judge. The attorney was/is a scratch golfer and competed in the US and British Am’s a few times, and the judge was a heck of a golfer in his day (and still pretty damn good for someone who is nearly 80). So, Jordan would play with them, and they asked him about the difference between Knight and Coach Smith. Jordan said that once you got past the bombast/temper and language that he felt like Coach Smith and Bobby Knight were very similar in how they both coached/viewed the game.

Jordan is also said to have looked at the judge and the attorney one time and asked along the lines of “how are you two middle aged white fuckers out driving me everytime and I’m the best athlete in the fucking world?”

Suns look to be for real. It should be between them, the Celts, and the Bucs. And my hunch is it will be the first two in the finals. Both teams are capable of putting up lots of points. The Celts have a better defense but the Suns have actual team leadership, not to mention the batman factor in KD. If he stays healthy, as of right now it's looking to me like the Suns have a small advantage.

Mavs and Lakers did some kind of weird Twilight Zone soul exchange last month. WTF.

He's a self centered piece of it, plus he and Luka are not a compatible pair. And Mark Cuban has been claiming lately he didn't get a chance to resign Jalen Brunson too, which is bs. So not a good year for the owner who has had a pretty good rep up until now.
