  1. Shaq played with Chris Jackson, Stanley Roberts, and other NBA players - outside of Grant Hill, who else on Duke’s teams had NBA careers like those guys. Sub out Shaq for Laettner in that ‘92 game against Kentucky and Shaq goes 37/19 with 11 blocks and Duke loses in regulation…
  2. I’ll swap out Bradley for Travis Mays and take the over on offense/defense tradeoff, but a solid lineup for sure…
  3. Christian Laettner was a better college player than Shaq…
  4. If I had a 2nd team he’d probably be on it…
  5. I’ll limit mine to only players I actually saw play as a ‘fan’ vs a little kid, which I’m arbitrarily picking as age 13 so 1979 for me. I’m also only picking people who played at least 3 years of actual college basketball, which obviously eliminates most of the great players of the last 20 years. Trying to make this a more or less 5 position lineup aka not 5 big men. No particular order: Christian Laettner Patrick Ewing Chris Mullen Kemba Walker (came real close to JJ Redick here but fuck JJ Redick on general Duke principle; I already have Christian fucking Laettner) Danny Manning (I’m making him a 3 here which he didn’t play at the time but he would have killed as a 3 and D guy in todays game)
  6. Doing fo cuz why lose $60 when you can lose $120? Just Venmo-ed..
  7. Along with Nico (already extended), and think you can add Lassiter to that list pretty soon…
  8. Resigned Mario Edwards today too…
  9. Draft any one of 2-3 possibilities for us at 25 and that rotation gets a lot stronger. Really need to pick up one of the starting caliber guards still available in FA…
  10. So net/net, turning worthless sack of aggy shit who might not have made the roster into a fairly significant upgrade at SS costs us an extra $800K on the cap and a late-round downgrade in next year’s draft? Great move…
  11. Hopefully this means that the staff has confidence in Blake Fisher, given that we used a 2nd rounder on him last year. Really need to sign one quality interior starter with this $…
  12. You sound like a total badass; post some pics of your guns brah
  13. I didn’t realize that was him until this post lol…saw that in the theater for matinee price - it was entertaining… That fucking “my school isn’t out today” scene is chilling…
  14. Lol nm
  15. And probably banging a 22 year old Danish lingerie model…
  16. Assuming this was the Villa Capri?
  17. He lacks the most important ability you need out of a highly-paid player…
  18. Mason adds $9MM if they make him a post 6/1 cut; that would cover Kevin Zeitler with some $$ to spare, and he’d immediately be our 2nd best (if not best) OLineman. Figure Danielle Hunter is next; I’d rather not go back to the bank of Laremy again but we might have to…
  19. I think Jacksonville eats the bonus on those years right? Edit - Yeah there’s two void years still on the deal but they contain no guaranteed money so they don’t mean shit. We can restructure his deal to be the same $16.5 over three years but guarantee say 9 of it, make the last two years voids and save $6MM this year. That’s probably enough to sign this year’s draft class so you can use what surplus we have before the extension on plugging OL/DL/WR holes…
  20. Yeah feels like they’d convert a ton of it to a signing bonus and add a couple void years. Good deal overall at a position of desperate need…
  21. Yep, that contract was a team-friendly deal anyway all things considered. He’s one of 4-6 guys on this roster worth making a long-term bet on…
