And at 6-7, 310, he's almost "skinny", not a sumo.

Long story on Ohio State freshman Aaron Craft. Funny take from Jared Sullinger, talking about how in AAU every one would always assume the white kid was the designated shooter. A young craftsman at the point: Ohio State's Aaron Craft a vital cog of undefeated Buckeyes as a freshman...

Can't wait for BYU/SDSU on Wednesday ... except it's on CBS College Sports which I don't get.

Trent Dilfer's another Uncle Tom throwing Cutler under the bus.

Heath Evans was one of the players ripping Cutler on Twitter.

First triple-double in Wisconsin history, against Northwestern, from freshman guard Josh Gasser.

As Al McGuire said 20 years ago about a Kenny Anderson breakout layup, You now you're good when you don't have to dunk!

Only watched a little of the game -- Oregon court too distracting! Don't know how he played this game, but one of USC's really tiny black players is Maurice Jones, a freshman from Saginaw who I've watched since he was in jr. high. He's actually really good, but has been playing 40 minutes a...

What was that Mark Twain quote? Outside of dunk contests, "Max vertical" isn't particularly useful to basketball, it's how quick and explosive you are off the floor. Even no-step vertical doesn't tell the entire story, it's still how long does it take you to get off the floor, and how many times...

Whoops, just saw this question re. Kaminski and Peters. I've seen KK play alot, our teams are in the same Midwestern "circuit." When he was younger had amazing footwork for his age, but has become more and more of an outside shooter. Built well, some places have him at 180 but he's no less than...

Draft Express calls Nikola one of the most improved players in the country, because he's building game around that NBA body. Could hardly believe this -- Thad Matta said Ohio St. freshman pg Aaron Craft had "elite lateral quickness." This kid will be a star, imagine he'll score a bunch as an...

During UM/Kansas game, Clark Kellogg said Fredette and Kemba Walker were his favorites for national poy.

Measured how exactly? Griffin is one of the most explosive leapers for his size, ever. I Love Love, but he's a below-the-rim player.

Is Murph too nice and too white? What the hell. In Bill James Historical Abstract, he's the only position player on the All-80s team not in the Hall of Fame. I think he may be the only eligible back-to-back MVP not in either. He was a freak athlete pre-steroids, 30-30 at 6-foot-5. James has...

UNLV guard probably should've kept his mouth shut ... I Caught the 'Killers' Show in Vegas Last Night... gregWRUBELL January 6th, 2011 @ 2:36pm With a nod to the Las Vegas-based band, BYU's two senior guards were a deadly duo last night at the Thomas & Mack Center. Jimmer Fredette and...

Also played basketball at Cincinnati.

One place Love gets props every night is on the NBA TV post-game show, though to look at the studio analysts they run through there's never been a white NBA player. But they take a few minutes on every game, so Kevin is talked about every night, and have had break-downs and interviews with him...

Flashy rebounding? Isn't that an oxymoron?

Butler just offered a super-tough white point guard from Lansing, a junior, Chris Harrison-Docks. His dad, Chris Harrison, played at Kentucky, but the younger one is more like another Chris, Corchiani.

Actually, he points this out and mocks the site for it, and also mocked the assertion here that he went to a black college, North Carolina A&T. He capitalizes "Black" to mock it, because it doesn't deserve it. Don's a sharp guy, but has a blind spot on this one.

Thanks!

Was Kleiza in Europe last year? Kind of lost track of him.

Jimmer made ESPN's Top 10 plays with a behind-the-back pass. No. 1 play was Andrew Bogut's tip-in game-winner.

You're selling the Bad Boys Pistons way short if you're comparing them to the Rockets teams. The Rockets never had wars against HOF laden teams like the Stones had with the Celtics, Bulls and Lakers. The Pistons both lost to and beat Bird's Celtics, Magic's Lakers and Jordan's Bulls. Bird was...

In all-time point guard discussions, Thomas' trump cards are his two rings.
