  1. that’s not fair, this league is under protest.
  2. from evan miyakawa:
  3. i won’t lie: when i’m watching the games im rooting for my team. but in my heart i know that we need to lose. this is never more clear than when we get behind by 20 and then go on a 10-0 run with 8 minutes left and i instinctively react like, β€œdamn it!” sobering moments, and clear signs that it’s time to move on.
  4. im going on record: if Texas wins a play-in game or something and then gets hot for one weekend and goes to the S16, i reject the idea that CDC β€œhas” to keep RT. in fact i would argue that this specific situation would be the very reason we pay him the big bucks. CDC already knows that RT isn’t the guy; i’m sure he’s known that since before RT was given the HC position full time. as much as fans want to make the entire 4.5 month season all about tourney results, that’s not how a highly paid, elite AD works. if he’s not the guy then you let him go and you bring in someone who is. whatever push back you get will be short lived, and will be irrelevant if you replace RT with a clear upgrade. so yeah, i’ll say right now that i don’t care what RT does in the tourney, assuming that this season ends the way we all think it will. 7-11 in january - march >>> a couple of wins in the tourney.
  5. career wise, no. but i actually think that KD is LeBron’s equal, he’s just won fewer titles because he’s spent his entire career in the west playing on mismanaged teams, outside of his stint in GS, where he was the clear best player/alpha one of the greatest and most talented teams of all time. i’ve always believed that if you switched LeBron and KD’s teams (so, let KD play with bosh and wade under the guidance of Spo and Riley while LeBron fights russell westbrook for the ball in okc) that it would be KD who has more titles and mvps than lebron, and it would be KD who is considered this generations best player.
  6. if you’re going against LAL Shaq you might actually consider rostering a guy that seems like an asinine pick, but based on his legendary, immovable strength, steven adams might be worth a flier. he’s not the best defensive player of all time, and i’m under no illusions that he himself would actually stop Shaq. but again, to hear modern day centers tell it, adams is *by far* the strongest player in the nba. multiple players have actually injured themselves just accidentally running into him. might be worth a flier. something like this: oacar, mj, kawhi, KG, adams jusy throw that group on the floor for 3-4 minutes if shaq is killing you in the paint and around the rim. LAL Shaq truly is a 1-of-1 player who requires some out-of-the-box strategies to slow him down. this might be a terrible idea, but hey, i’m trying lol.
  7. lol that’s true. shaq is just a freak.
  8. prime shaq was towards the tail end of hakeem’s career. hakeem is arguably the best all around defensive player ever.
  9. @Fawesome
  10. let’s bring this shit back y’all!
  11. towards the end of barnes and shaka’s tenure here people were livid. now everyone is just checked out, moved on. like you said- no life in the program. which again, makes the whole β€œhe has to make the tourney to keep his job” line so implausible. even if Texas does consider this β€œyear two”, cdc isn’t going to force the program to keep wandering the desert for another year because of the β€œoptics” of firing an objectively subpar coach.
  12. i don’t believe this at all. there is essentially zero chance that cdc is sitting around like, β€œok, if he makes the tourney he can stay, but if not then he’s gone.” that’s fan behavior, not best-AD-in-the-country behavior. just more evidence that IT is full of shit and knows less than several posters from this forum do.

  15. the earlier seasons were good. this shit is dumb. buncha fat, old, lazy reality tv has beens doing puzzles and holding ropes and shit. it’s embarrassing.
  16. bro i sweatergawd there is almost no fat on that post lmao. as far as my standards go that shit was as concise as i can possibly be.
  17. i would not turn my nose up at sean miller, but i believe, perhaps foolishly, that he feels he owes some amount of debt and gratitude to Xavier which will see him staying there for at least a few more years.
  18. i don’t think he’s going to leave xavier any time soon. he’s fortunate that they welcomed him back the way they did. i would say that, from a fan perspective, that mccasland has the β€œminimum acceptable” resume for the type of hire we’re looking for. with that said i’ll also reiterate that i have total faith in cdc, and anyone who is good enough for him will be good enough for me to blindly support and get hyped about until proven otherwise.
