Revisiting the Returning Roster

[BearcatAlum1]

Well for one he didnt quit on the team. That for starters would put bishop out the door in my book. Two, Biggie may be a mid-major player (not D2) but you can't teach 7 ft even if its for practice. I would go into more detail but don't feel its a forum to bash our own players.

Agreed.

Thats fair, however "but you cant teach 7 ft" is the dumbest, most overused phrase in basketball...

Apparently, fundamentals and FT's are off limits as well.

oh, I can think of a couple others...

"He is only 6'3" but he is long and athletic"

"This player has huge upside"

There are also a few that may not be overused but just shouldn't be used period.

"Kevin Love has great pick and popability"
and
"Michael Beasley has second-jumpability"

 

[swg]

He's a tweener.

Not as bad but the term "combo guard" drives me nuts. Why don't they just call it "not quick enough to run the point full time" guard.

Nice to see you over here MDW79. You and I have had some good back and forth over at BCN but it was always on point and respectful (can't say the same for some others over there). Look forward to more of what you bring as it's always interesting and debatable.

I am expecting big things from Darnel Wilks. Put 10-15 lbs on him where he can actually guard the big guys down low. In turn it creates a miss match on the other end with his athleticism.

Based on the way he finished the season, I am too!!

Thanks, dude. It looks like everyone on here actually contributes, which is great. I dig it. That is my biggest problem with BCN's basketball side right now. I'll admit, I got sucked into a lot of conversations that frankly weren't worth my time.

Honestly, reading this forum is a breath of fresh air. It's actually about basketaball and not whether Mick should be wearing a red tie or not. (That actually was brought up numerous times.)

Well you prob won't like me.
All honestly ill keep it to basketball this offseason. Atleast try to.

As for wilks. Correct bearcatjeff, his last few games he showed great promise. When he was on the court he produced and HUSTLED!

LOL. Oh man that one drove me crazy. Remind to the ban that person if you can remember who posted it. Seriously.

You guys either took care of it awhile back or they disappeared. It was a "women" who claimed her husband was a UCATS member if I remember correctly.

It was pretty funny. I'm writing my normal type subbing-pattern post and come across something about Mick's tie and was thinking "What the hell is this?"

Ah yes, the infamous red tie argument from "Beacon of Power."

Quite a gem!
