Is that me clamping up @AdamSandler ? Yes, yes it is

@IainMacBets @AdamSchiavone @sportsdailymed They lost at the hands of 2 total upsets you sound dumb af Grand Canyon sure bad loss (happens) 10 over 7 isn’t even really an upset

@AdamSchiavone @sportsdailymed It's not, but making it to the Sweet 16 once in 14 attempts while also losing to some double-digit seeds along the way is kind of crazy.

We need to start having a conversation about how much of a fraudulent NCAA Tournament team Saint Mary's is. One Sweet 16 in 14 tournament appearances since 1989.

@gatorboyleo @AlijahWeig51131 @TheDunkCentral @JakeLFischer It’s a fair question to ask for sure and a lot will come out about it pre draft to give us more clarity

@tbaberr @AlijahWeig51131 @TheDunkCentral @JakeLFischer I'm with you, and I'll be tuning in. Just thinking as a GM e.g. Zion, D-Rose, Ja, etc. What good is ability if there's limited availability?

The Indiana Pacers would reportedly consider drafting Cam Boozer No. 1, per @JakeLFischer “No one in the NBA that I’ve consulted projects any sort of dramatic draft night fall for either Peterson or Boozer. When it comes to Boozer, in fact, there is a sentiment among some rival teams that the Duke star would be Indiana’s preferred selection even if the Pacers were to come away with the No. 1 overall pick because of his potential fit alongside Pascal Siakam and newly acquired Ivica Zubac.” (Via open.substack.com/pub/marcstein/…)

@gatorboyleo @AlijahWeig51131 @TheDunkCentral @JakeLFischer He had his own back and soft tissue issues and was saving himself for this tournament. I promise we will see today and the rest of the way why he did that and why that is his comp. He’s god amazing footwork and shot creation and lift as a scoring wing/guard

@tbaberr @AlijahWeig51131 @TheDunkCentral @JakeLFischer Lol, I'm sorry bro, I don't see nothing "Kobe" like about Peterson. You're talking about a guy that played with torn ligaments in his hand/thumb, and walked off the court with a torn Achilles vs a guy that just checks himself out of games and nobody, not even the coach knows why

@SpecificNY The 2 teams that miss the play in will have been teams that can take the Celtics or pistons to 6 or 7 it’s actually crazy

Son this might be the most competitive post season we’ve ever seen

@gatorboyleo @AlijahWeig51131 @TheDunkCentral @JakeLFischer I mean I agree but is that ceiling top 4 good when AJ and Caleb ceilings are Dominique Wilkins/shawn kemp, and petersons ceiling is Kobe like

@AlijahWeig51131 @tbaberr @TheDunkCentral @JakeLFischer Bro is 6'3, 190, built for the NBA, statistically 48% from the field, 44% from 3 and averaged 6 dimes. I think he's Stephon Marbury 2.0

@DaimonV33249 @gatorboyleo @TheDunkCentral @JakeLFischer I just don’t think he was playing the right way tbh he should’ve been in a takeover mode all game think that was on coach for coming in with a bad strategy maybe saving him for later

@tbaberr @gatorboyleo @TheDunkCentral @JakeLFischer Boozer does not have a gauranteed floor. What I saw against Siena and Virginia is that he has issues keeping guards out of the paint and preventing layups, and guarding or scoring against smaller, quicker bigs.

@gatorboyleo @TheDunkCentral @JakeLFischer Is one of those guys***

@gatorboyleo @TheDunkCentral @JakeLFischer I’d put my house he doesn’t unless some really hungry for a pg team is top 4. Wings like Caleb Wilson AJ and Peterson are so hard to come by and boozer is Ike if those guys with no weaknesses that guarantees you certain production

@gatorboyleo @TheDunkCentral @JakeLFischer Doing the things they do against college players is a lot different than the pros. Guards and wings always have an adjustment development process because of it guards especially acuff not going top 4 for a reason

@tbaberr @TheDunkCentral @JakeLFischer Possibly, not knocking Boozer, but AJ looks to be a cut above anything else in the draft, besides Acuff.

@lulljay24 I think it’s just a guaranteed floor, contribute to winning right now kind of thought process. Who ever we draft is a bench piece tbh while I’d prefer that to be darryn is he gonna be able to contribute in that role? Cam will

I fuck with Cam but cmon now

@gatorboyleo @TheDunkCentral @JakeLFischer I think it’s more of a guaranteed floor ready to contribute on a winning team kind of thing. I’m always a best available guy but for a team fresh off the finals that could be the mindset

@TheDunkCentral @JakeLFischer No damn way you can look at AJ from BYU play and say, nah I'm good, I'll take Boozer 🤣

@FreeeDummm @MicaelaDeaTV @Kansashoopschat I think he goes absolutely nuclear and you guys can make a run the only question is how his game fits with the team because of the lack of reps

@MicaelaDeaTV @Kansashoopschat This is why as hard as it was all year, what we needed him for was a deep run in March. I don’t want a kyrie type situation where an elite talent goes down and we lose him for the 2nd half. It wasn’t perfect but hopefully it works out in our favor

"If I was able to be out there, I would've been out there." After missing 11 games in the regular season, Darryn Peterson has now played in seven-straight, and he says he's 100% entering the NCAA Tournament. #kubball #marchmadness

@joshpires7 @matthewwinick Those guys are only ok nba players rn. The reality is once they get to the league their ability to score leaps at an insane rate cause they’re playing the best comp. Now put them against lower comp with the extra size and they will score at will

@matthewwinick Dylan Harper and Ace Bailey were on the same team and ended up going under .500

We always do these stupid hypotheticals about “how good would a random college basketball team be if they had an NBA player on it?” Just turn on the BYU game right now. You’ll have your answer.

@Tradakin @cfrederick29 @UnbiasBball @matthewwinick And what I mean by that is in this hypothetical you’re also as the nba guy going in with the mindset to carry so you’re taking all the shots and scoring or getting fouled on almost every play

@Tradakin @cfrederick29 @UnbiasBball @matthewwinick Look the thing is just cause they can score in the nba doesn’t mean they are a top player also the first thing players do when they get to the nba is put on a ton of size. Thats the difference these nba players would be so physically imposing on college guys

@FrozenTakesInGB @imr__01 @ccapple15 To be fair they genuinely should’ve. That fold was all time on those missed FTs

@imr__01 @ccapple15 Not winning the National Championship last year with freaking; Kon Knueppel, Cooper Flagg, Khaman Maluach, Sion James, and Tyrese Proctor told me everything that I needed to know.

Tells me everything I need to know about Jon Scheyer

@Nordeh01 @OBTracksz @UnderdogNBA Bro shot 18/30 and 15/19 FTs in a competitive game against a good team. Bam shot 20/43 and 36/43 FTs in a blowout against one of the worst teams in the league ….. 60 fucking percent and bam shit under 50 you sound dumb af Luka breaking that bum ass total soon

@OBTracksz @UnderdogNBA Regardless Luka will give you Brick by brick

Bam Adebayo on Luka Doncic’s 60-point night: “I know what it’s like to be in that mode… As people can see, it’s not easy to get to 80.”

@SienaFanClub @barstoolsports That big makes the dunk and another lay and yall hold the lead just a little longer and its a totally different game Duke would’ve started scrambling

@barstoolsports Almost worked…

Siena’s 6th man:

@balltalkwitdave @jeff_on_sports Straight rim easily 😂 would’ve thought I traveled and not lifted right then have to fake an injury after

@jeff_on_sports i would’ve smoked that so badly i just know it 😭

man i know this was the hardest shot in his life, every hooper knows how devastating a fast break layup at full speed is 😭

@dirtywaterdevil @rathernot948 @NoaDalzell I mean fair second point lol

@tbaberr @rathernot948 @NoaDalzell Yeah, he’s maybe a slightly above average 110 IQ intellect- really fucking unremarkable. Ya know what is remarkable is his athleticism and basketball skill, let’s talk about that instead.

Jaylen Brown explained how he’s memorized all of his teammate’s astrology and numerology in order to better learn how to communicate with them: “I learned communication styles that work best for each individual, and started utilizing that when I speak to each and every guy.”
