How can you have 3 10 minute quarters? Would it be 3rds or periods? Yea
Great story! I wonder when it was for me that I realized I was washed (not that you're washed sir) but I think it was around the same age where I realilzed I couldn't run up and down the floor with top notch athletes, but I will say I had quite the comeback in my early 30's, probably played the best ball of my life from 28-34
Have Andrew fill in then. It’s just an event for fans anyways.
I’ll be eating a third pound burger during the first quarter or first third unless I can get a quarter pound burger during the third quarter or third third.
I went to the one last year. I think Hurley & the coaches (and players) view it as a legitimate practice where they will go hard. It's not a goofy fan-focused show like "First Night"

And the walk-ons do fill in. But the intent is to have two full strength comparable squads who can go hard against each other.
Who has ever talked about us being 12 deep? The overwhelming consensus is that we are likely running a 10 man rotation to start the year:
Plenty of people have talked about Calcaterra, Springs, Yarin, and Apostolos playing.
I think Calcaterra is going to play. Experienced, veteran guard and shooter who is a great FT shooter. I can see him being really useful closing out games, as well as a low minute backup.
It’s very concerning.
Calcaterra for sure, Springs a lot less chatter. I haven't seen many people at all talking about Yarin or Apostolos playing.
If that were the case, he wouldn’t be making excuses about injuries. Do you think they stop scrimmaging in practice with 10+ healthy bodies?
A&W used to have a 1/3 lb burger. People didn’t understand it was bigger than a 1/4 lb burger. It didn’t go well.
No conspiracy but don't hype team depth if you're not even willing to scrimmage in front of the fans. Maybe just Borges's take but it will be strange if they call off scrimmaging in front of fans just because a couple of players are dinged up.
Joey California will play, and he should play. He’s a good 3pt shooter and a lethal FT shooter. He has scored in double figures in 3 of his last 4 games against Gonzaga so he is clearly capable of playing against top competition. He’s the type of guy you bring in off the bench when you need a jolt, and it wouldn’t surprise me if he had a few games where he goes unconscious from 3 and scores 15+ points. I read this board every day, I haven’t seen a single rational poster say that Springs, Yarin, and Apostolos will be getting minutes. That’s nonsense lol
Well, in fairness there has been some talk about Springs getting playing time, which was fueled by Hurley's comments at the Middlesex Chamber of Commerce breakfast on October 7.
