Jonas had 26 points and 24 rebounds against Poland. Team USA now plays Poland in a consolation game and we can finish no higher than fifth. I was reading some comments about our team and someone posted that we have the better athletes but they have better fundamentals. Well, I think...

He could be ok but he might turn into another Kwame Brown. Michael Jordan, the guy who also drafted Kwame Brown, traded Jeremy Tyler on draft night. I guess that MJ was seeing the next Kwame too and just wanted to get rid of him. lol

Jacob Tucker won the college dunk title and Marshall Plumlee should have won the high school dunk title. I like Jan Vesely's chances in the NBA dunk contest if there IS one and if he makes it (which he should).

Realistic, that FIBA 33 is a great idea. I much prefer halfcourt since full court games tend to devolve into streetball pretty fast.

j41181, This NBA lockout is supposed to be brutal and the entire season may be in jeopardy. I think that PEAK PRO SPORTS might be in, and, if the NBA comes back at all it might be a shell of its former self. It looks like the NBA started out as a merger between regional pro...

Kevin Love is 6'9 and averaged 20 points and 15 rebounds. George Mikan would probably be effective. I think it was a pretty rough game back then so Mikan EARNED his points I also read that the ball then was weird and harder to shoot which is why shooting percentages were low.

Ok, I can see your point. If this helps improve the quality of basketball and gets more Dirks and Loves and Gasols to the league then that would be great. But, this might force some white overseas talent to rethink the idea that the NBA is great. They might stay there and we will get stuck...

Whiteathlete33, why is this good? The league's best player is white. The league's top rebounder is white as is the reigning assist king. 4 of the top rookies next year will be white. This is good for the NHL but also good for the caste-friendly NFL. Perhaps the NBA has to do more...

I like the Jimmer pick. I am not sold on someone like Brandon Knight. Yeah, the Kings did lose more games, but Tyreke was injured so that may have something to do with it. I think Jimmer gives them that outside shooter that they need. Well, last year's number one pick had great stats...

I think Brad Miller can help them.I am looking forward to that team running more with Love, Rubio, and company. Miller should be able to provide a good veteran presence.

Ben Hansbrough should have been drafted but now he can go to a team that needs him and will have a better chance of making the cut. Why did they say this was a weak draft? Probably because 4 of the first ten picks weren't black (Kanter, Valenciunas, Vesely, and Fredette) with the best two...

I counted 15 whites including Enes Kanter. The guys at the back of the draft were basically made fun of. I wish Hansbrough had gotten drafted. I think Matt Howard was better than some of those guys too. But Diebler was a borderline pick and he got drafted. Good for him. I didn't see...

Walnut, True, but I think that would be a good fit for Jimmer and probably the highest he could go. Udrih would then be the fourth guard but I think the team would be better with Jimmer. The other good fit for Jimmer would be Utah at 12. He could start and point guard with a good...

There are some good Eastern European prospects in the NBA draft this year to go along with Jimmer Fredette as some other good white American prospects.

The Big Three (Obama, LeBron, and Tiger) aren't doing so well this year.
