    apparently Marcus Smart said in an interview he wants to guard Wiggins when OK St. plays KU.




    good luck.

    AJ Hammons got suspended 3 games, "conduct detrimental." Well, 2 exhibition games and our first regular season game, which is against something called Northern Kentucky. How many directional schools does KY have? It's not that big a state.

    It's not academic or legal, so that's good I guess. But it probably means he's being ****ing lazy and missing classes/meetings again. Get your shit together dude, the way so much of the fanbase is convinced he's a 2 and gone 1st rounder after this year is stupid. He's got a long way to go to make an NBA roster I'm GMing, let alone get a 1st round guaranteed deal.

    Why do I have a feeling CSUN going to lose the exhibition match vs Cal State LA?


    Also kind of crazy that everyone seemingly has UoA wrapping up the Pac12 with UCLA and Colorado being given distant second and third respectively. Won beshoced if Colorado wins the regular season and UoA finishes third. Shit is closer than most are saying

    Perhaps it's because AZ added Aaron Gordon, TJ McConnell, and Hollis Jefferson? They lost Lyons, Hill, and Jerrett, but all will be replaced by arguably better players. Combine that with improved play from Ashley, Johnson and Tarc, you see why they are highly regarded.

    I like them. I haven't watched a game yet (I presume you are watching the KU scrimmage), but college basketball was getting way too physical. The last couple years I have seen plays that would get an NFL player fined and a foul would go uncalled.

    How does Wiggins look?

    I agree it was too physical but now it's too touchy. Maybe it was just the refs trying to set the tone for the season, but there was like 30 ft's in the first half or some shit. Wiggins looks godly, he was nervous at first but he settled and had a nasty oop and got to show off a bit of his scoring repertoire. really good hands on D as well, he's gonna get a lot of blocks and steals this year.

    Don't forget these potentially great games in the early season tournaments.

    Maui Invitational:

    Potentially Syracuse vs Gonzaga

    Nit Season Tip off:

    Potentially Arizona vs Duke

    Amida Brimah was fun to watch in the UConn/SCSU scrimmage. Runs the floor very well, great reach, legit seven footer, already has a go to post move. Granted it was just an exhibition, but he has potential to be the next great UConn shotblocker.

    I'm really excited to see McConnell play at AZ. I've followed his progression since HS and it will be really interesting to see how he blossoms at a major D1 program with a ton of talent around him. He probably has the highest bball IQ that I have ever seen in person/played against.

    Actually, if UK misses on Stanley Johnson, they would have missed on a good deal of their top targets this class.

    Oubre and Mudiay for sure were top priorities. Went after the Jones, Okafor, Winslow trio as well before having to settle with Ulis. Pretty sure Devin Booker was a back up plan for UK as well. Towns was a reclass and Lyles was originally committed to Indiana. Weird how this class ended up being made.

    By the way, although things seem to be pointing West of the Mississippi, I think Johnson still goes to UK and they end up with the top class. Still a weird recruiting cycle for them.
