Ray Allen and Special Guest

[SirHypeAlot]

Saw a tweet last night from No Escalators that Ray will be attending the game tonight and rumored to be bringing Lebron with him.

Lebron in a Bazz Jersey would break the scale for me. Also wouldnt mind hundreds of young recruits out there seeing Lebron donning UConn regalia next to one of our all-time greats.

Should be a large number of NBA alums in house tonight with no games scheduled.

And supposedly KD coming to, who knows

 

[housekeys]

Dirk Nowitzki - in Dallas - to watch his boy Niels. This I like.

 

[BankShot]

If we had LEBRON and KD pulling for UCONN, plus Ray, Ripper, Emeka, etc, that's a hell of a recruiting tool

TOO BAD we won't WIN BECAUSE WE'RE DOOMED

 

[dogpause]

I've always thought Kevin's strength would be recruiting, but he's really the complete package. However, having so many NBA stars in your corner would cause any recruit to take notice.

I think, to most people aspiring to the NBA, LeBron, Durant, and Ray Ray mean a little more than Drake and WWW.

If kd goes...gotta be with lamb and Thabeet!

Guys - I live in Cuyahoga Falls, OH. 5 mi from Lebron's 55,000 sq ft home - he's best friends with The Squid and he's coming to root for UK. He's NOT LIKED in NEO (Northeast Ohio) for multiple reasons - UK being #2.

 

[RayRay19]

Recruiting doesn't mean anything since we are doooomed tonite!

LeBron used to go to Indians games in a Yankees hat. He left the Cavs to play with Wade and Bosh on the Heat. The dude's the biggest frontrunner in the world; why wouldn't he be a UK fan?

Not a LeBron hater (at least not anymore). He's the best player of his generation and seems like a nice guy. But he's a big-time frontrunner.

 

[UConnKev]

Ray and another former UConn star are on their way...

He's been tweeting KO congrats and having tweets about Shabazz Napier for weeks now.

He may still show up and pull for UK, but my guess is that he would root for UConn.

If I'm not mistaken, after a couple of roommate changes - Ray and KO ended rooming together for most of their time at UCONN. My guess they ended up together is because Ollie is probably one of the few that could tolerate and comprehend Ray's OCD! Probably because he's got a big case of it himself. All maniacly successful people do.

UCONN - we are OCD about winning. Excited about the opportunity to earn another title tonight. I am.

 

[UConn5]

I don't know that LeBron would actually throw on the uconn gear given his ties to WWW and WWW's ties to UK, but hey...would be awesome.

KD has no such ties I believe.

Along with Scott Nurrell, that's 2 NBA Champion Huskies. And, it wouldn't be too surprising for Caron to join fellow Huskies, and now Thunder teammates Lamb and Thabeet.

If kd goes...gotta be with lamb and Thabeet!

And Caron

That doesn't look like Spirit Airlines does it?

 

[sportsart]

Why has there been no tweets from NBA stars pulling for the squid? Let's be fair and balanced folks.

And the follow on: if UCONN wins, he'll be on the floor to celebrate with RA and KO. Which will look good!

He's also a Cowboys and Bulls fan, in addition to the Yankees and, evidently, Kentucky. Let's see. Dude grows up in the 90's and becomes a fan of the 3-time Super Bowl champs, 6-time NBA champs, 4-time World Series champs, and 2-time NCAA champs. What a tool. As a Giants/Knicks/Red Sox/UConn fan, I'm not sure there's a more hated combination of teams.

You think maybe just for tomorrow he could set that aside and pull for the alma mater of the guy who won him his second ring?

LeBron has great respect for Coach Cal, but LeBron is an Ohio State fan first and foremost. He's said many times that's where he would've gone if he went to college and the team wears all his signature stuff, maybe the only school that does

he said at an nba all star weekend (dunk contest i think) years ago he would have went to UNC
he's a flip flopper

Seems like Charlie V is on his way too
