A two dribble, thirty-five foot form jumper for the win at the buzzer is Player of the Year worthy stuff.

It was a great shot by a great player that will be shown 8 billion times between now and the end of March.

It was also a shot that was entirely preventable if

Tonight, the Spurs travel to a barren wasteland the Land of 10,000 Lakes or something to take on the Timberwolves, a team that hasn’t won since the Clinton Administration.  And as you know, I hate hyperbole.

There isn’t a whole lot to say about this one.  Though the Mavericks tried to show us last night that

Unlike Hamilton and Brown, Bradley can make this move to the NBA because he has the defensive skills to play on the next level.

If I were Avery, I would leave if the recruiting class is not going to give them a chance to win next year. He really needs to work on his ball

Yeah there are times that it goes away, like when we get another football recruit not named Chet or Taylor. Or when I think about a starting

Rick Reilly’s articles invariably remind me of that Simpsons episode where Bart becomes a TV celebrity with his saccharine “Bart’s People”. I almost expect Rick to end each column with “Hmmm… really makes you think.”

Loss in Waco = Win in Kansas City?

Tonight the Bears get their second crack of the year at Kansas State. The first time we played K State in Waco, we managed to lose the game despite being more efficient than K State offensively. While K State did outshoot us by 9%, and outrebounded us 36-32,

Thanks, St. Emilion.

That’s a good choice, but UNC was so good that Ty didn’t stand out as much as he should have.

Mateen Cleaves, Khalid El Amin, Ty Edney, those were some other tournament war daddies that come to mind along with Lawson.

That is the most awesome analogy in the history of analogies, imo. Seriously, I usually don’t like them because they rarely ever actually describe a situation well, but that one is perfect.

Ugh…if Hamilton and Bradley ditch for the NBA I’ll start to move out of the Rick Barnes camp because this team doesn’t have a great contingency for that event. Especially if Varez Ward can’t come back healthy.
That would take away probably the 2 best shooters on the team and replace them with Dogus, Ward, Brown,

Milk,

I don’t think JCB is going to sit at the end of the bench though. He needs to understand what his coach and team needs. Better sustained effort, better ball protection, and better defense. He has offensive skills that someone like Justin Mason just doesn’t possess, but yet lacks the physical talent

Is Kyle Lomers Josh Lomers alter-ego? Or is Kyle the “girl” he sometimes dresses up as?

Either works.

George Hill is physically intimidating–he’s ripped and extremely strong. Bradley is extremely weak and has TERRIBLE upper-body strength. This directly correlates with his miserable finishing ability (or lack of).

I think AB had had an extremely good freshman season and very much agree that he’s hit that freshman wall. AB still has a lot of work to do. Comparing him to the 24 year old Hill may be a disservice to Avery, but I understand where your trying to go. I

It’s a joke. They always talked about him boxing, though I agree, he’s a tough dude. I loved the way he fearlessly returned punts straight up the gut at 100mph.

The best guards are puported to come from Chicago, Illinois because in the windy city, you either score at the goal, or you risk having our J pushed two feet off the mark thanks to the 30 mph winds whipping off Lake Michigan.

Yeah, but here’s the thing — you have to have some way to resolve draws. Endless extra time is impractical, because these games are played in the midst of regular league and domestic cup features — you just can’t play that much extar football. Penalty shots are even more arbitrary than away goals.

Mistakes from nerves should not be a reason to unjustly allow one goal to count as two. It goes against the true laws of the game. No other sport has a “point” (goal in this case) scored by one team counting for more than what it would for the other team. It
