Aren't you the guy who, during the Kansas game:

  1. Called for Ollie to be fired less than 10 minutes in.
  2. Said that Hanilton needs to "get off my court".
  3. Whined that you "deserve better than this", as if any aspect of UConn basketball is something you are entitled to.
You're probably the last person on this website who should be telling others to adjust their tone.

Ha, seriously, that was facepalm-worthy.

I'm in the camp who thinks this may be the last chance AB gets to receive 3rd party, unbiased (for the most part), feedback on what he needs to do next year to even be considered NBA material. While slightly head scratching, this can only help him IMO because, to date, he has not progressed the way our bigs traditionally have.

Nah man, that wasn't me.


Brimah gets a lifetime pass from me for that and-1 with under a minute to go against Temple in the 2014 1st round.

This is funny...with some of these kids declaring scouts must be shaking their heads....its like a D student applying early admission to Harvard Law.


That would be more like an F student applying early, given that there are no early admissions to Harvard Law.

Brimah and DHam applying for the draft. And the response is "what can possibly go wrong?"

"It will be a learning experience".

I'm sure when the Donner Party decided to cross the Rockies, someone said, "What could possible go wrong?"

Please enlighten me as to how those situations are comparable in any way, shape, or form.

You do realize people can go and look at those posts, right?
Was hacked, my dude. Probably left myself logged in at the Apple store or something. Classic mix up!

It's a toss up. He's dumb enough to not grasp you can go back and look up posts, yet also dumb enough to legitimately forget he posted it.

The way I look at this is that both KO and DHam are going to hear that they are not going to be earning NBA guaranteed money next year. Only seniors and those who will be going in that 1st round should be signing with agents
KO and the staff would not be exercising due diligence if they did not at least talk to DHam and AB about entering w/o an agent. This will be a valuable learning experience for the players for they will hear from the folks who could be paying them what they need to do to earn that guaranteed money.
I would be surprised and stunned if either heard anything but go back to UConn listen to KO and work on the following........
Anyone who bashes either the players or their coaches for trying this are foolish.
Both will be back in a UConn uniform as will RP - its going to be a fun season 2016-17

There's a bunch of guys /gals on the chat room every game that fit this description
When things are going bad it's bash the coach bash the players but when something goes well it's Let's go UConn
I can't stand that approach and have ignored a good many of them

I'm just not seeing the connection between potentially getting evaluated by NBA personnel and freezing to death/resorting to cannibalism in Tahoe.
It is under the general heading of disaster.
And you are being to literal.
Brimah and Hamilton might both get an offer for late in the 2nd round and jump.
They might both get an offer for a large signing bonus if they become free agents after the draft.
They may meet with an agent, not knowing he is an agent.
They might tear an ACL.
They might get a big offer from a foreign team.
The list of things that can go wrong is endless.

And a meteor may hit Storrs while they are at an NBA camp. Stop being foolish.

He already declared. He is eligible to withdraw his name unless he hires an agent.
Now I get it. Please message me when he signs with an agent.

Dude relax. Yesterday's the past, tomorrow's the future, but today is a gift. That's why it's called the present. Think about it.

So why respond to someone who wrote something 14 minutes prior to yours. Stay in the present.

I suppose it could potentially give them feedback for what they need to improve on to make it to the next level. Then again, that's why we have coaches.

Yeah , I guess if I spewed constant idiotic nonsense I'd try to get people to believe the past doesn't matter as well.
