  1. that and both 2nd fouls on Richardson and Griffey... a few bad calls...
  2. neither do they
  3. these guys just called BP3 as effective a player that has been at Illinois since Frank Williams... did they happen to forget Deron, Dee, and Luther?
  4. I've seen that look on Weber's face before... which is exactly why I picked LaSalle
  5. Ugh. I have no problem with the players getting more of the pie, but they shouldn't be [expletive] over the amateurs to do it. The new CBA and now this are a [expletive] joke. Bud is really helping the small market teams, isn't he? Sheesh. Seriously, it's like he's telling them they have to have everything go right at the same time to have a chance, or extend their potential stars as soon as they're up in the bigs.
  6. Colorado, I like that matchup.
  7. Minny is in as an 11... UI going to be a 10?
  8. I think that yet again, this shows the committee is placing a huge emphasis on the conference tournament
  9. Nice. More likely Milliner falls to 10. I'm not sure Fisher gets to 5... Philly could use him for sure
  10. didn't think that was going to end well when Paul was 25 feet out with 5 seconds left... what a frustrating player, but man can he do some amazing things
  11. all things considered, it feels like Illinois should be up more than 9. Can't complain as long as they don't come out flat in the 2nd half though
  12. another bad TO by Abrams after almost throwing away the inbounds a minute earlier
  13. Abrams can't hit anything... and then throws it away on a 5 on 3 break
  14. and a 2nd early on Mbakwe...
  15. 2nd foul on Hollins is big
  16. I feel like Houston may opt to think long-term rebuilding and go with Frazier if he continues to play like he has since they took a HS player last year with Correa and figure maybe they can bring the two along and have two big building blocks in their lineup for years to come rather than take a guy like Appel who could be ready in less than 2 years and waste some good, cheap years on a really bad team.
  17. I'm glad they found it necessary to let people know where Chase Daniel might be heading...
  18. Saw that, was definitely surprised. I guess he figures he's been banged up enough already and it wasn't going to get much easier as he got older and decided to take his millions and go while he's still in relatively good health. Can't blame the guy.
  19. and game over because Smith gets to crash into Paul and get the rebound edit: not that they were going to come back anyway, but I think that put the end to it for sure
  20. Glad they called the intentional there... Ravenel may not have been trying to be dirty, but he made no attempt at playing the ball
  21. I wonder if now that the streak is over, they might rest some guys with more borderline injuries. You obviously don't want to punt any games, but if you can rest Hossa or someone who is banged up but could still play, would you do it against a team like Columbus?
  22. got a good chuckle out of that... especially this line:
  23. Agreed... Garza makes way too many stupid mistakes to be paid as well as he is while being probably a below average nfl center.
  24. While the Charlotte pick could become valuable, there is also the chance they draft Ben McLemore or someone with an upcoming lottery pick and that pick becomes a stud... I agree that they should go ahead and use it to get an established player if one becomes available
