Well Big 10 players sure as hell aren't being paid in the NBA.

You act like any conference the last ten years has produced a ton of great pros. Psst they all skipped college or came from Europe. With a few exceptions.

Yeah, but no one any good came from the Big 10.

Deron Williams is decent. Among the 10 best in the league.

Like I said.

You said no one good. I just gave you one of the best players in the NBA. Had you said, hardly anyone good, then you would have been right. DOn't puff your chest out too far either. While the Big 12 has had some talent, none of them are from Mizzou.

That's because he's from Texas.

That must be why he thinks he's bigger than the team and ran off his old coach.

Yep the state of Illinois never produces NBA level talent. Good point.

Don't think that was his point. I think he was just trying to prop up Texas as that's where he lives?

i couldnt get through three lines personally, i just find it embarrassing that someone would write this article, even though the guy could not possibly be serious.

 

Maybe the Morris twins were holding guns to his head.

I don't know. The way the conversation was going was talking about where players are from. I assumed he meant that Williams was only good because he was from out of the Big Ten's area. As if our area hasn't been producing the high level basketball players. It has been. We just haven't been getting them to stay at home.

Colton Iverson apparently transferring from Minny. The wheels are coming off that program fast.

 

Rumors about Painter to Mizzou haven't died...

Would be nice if we could trade one of these two games for one of the crappy earlier games to get one good game on at each time slot.
