We're going to learn a lot about Bazz tomorrow

[kobebeanbryant]

I'm very interested to see how Bazz responds to being taken out of the starting lineup. He seems like a resilient kid, so I would be disappointed if he doesn't play well.

Sidenote: If we win does he remain on the bench? That would pretty much torpedo his NBA chances.

Torpedo his NBA chances? Sometimes this board is so freaking stupid.

I think he'll be fine. AO didn't seem to like it very much at the beginning of the year though.

Is this the first time JC is starting neither of his captains?

 

[Fishy]

Ugh.

He's not starting the game, but he's going to play starter's minutes. Calhoun is just changing the scenery on him a little bit to start the game. Might be to make him more aggressive.

if the kid doesn't start the rest of the year (he probably will, i'm just saying if) you don't think that might affect him being the #1 point guard as was mentioned previously (albeit by gottleib)?

torpedo was probably not a great word, but it sounds cool so i used it.

My God, is this "Gottlieb/Shabazz #1 PG in the NBA Draft" the new boneyard meme that gets run to death like references to Denham's 100 pt game, Hilton units, and 20 minutes? I swear ya'll are like white dudes still running around screaming "I'm Rick James b*tch".

You didn't learn enough about Shabazz when he stepped up to the foul line in the National Semifinal vs Kentucky and knocked down both FTs to ice the game?

well i am a white dude that still says "i'm Rick James b*tch" so i guess it makes sense.

As long as you don't use an apostrophe, that statement is fine....

i like what you did there, but i don't think it's necessarily the same thing.

 

[superjohn]

There is a 0% chance Shabazz is leaving for the draft after this year so you don't have to worry.

Bazz will be fine even not starting. I predict 18 points and 5 assists. Break out night for AO too.
