That's an odd comparison. I guess it's the best one if you just wanted to throw some pro-Michigan sentiment into the post apropos of nothing. So if that's the case, fair enough.

Yeah I can see hating this kid for a long long time. He got just the right amount of punchability in the face area. Plus he doesn't look good enough to go pro after just a year or two. Seems like he'd like to stick around and develop in that system. Yeah... I hate him already.

1a and 1b. Jones and Okafor.
2a and 2b. Lyles or Looney.
3a and 3b. Winslow or Pinson.

I haven't seen enough of the last four guys to have strong opinions at the moment. But in a fantasy world, we get Jones, Okafor, one of the kids from my 2 list, and one of the kids from my 3 list.

Obviously that's unlikely to happen. But still. Fantasy world.

Dallas Heatvricks BACK 2 BACK CHAMPS!!

Amida Brimah, a 6-foot-11 center from Miami, signed a national letter of intent Monday to play for UConn, making him a full-fledged member of the program.

The signing was expected. Brimah orally committed to UConn on Jan. 14, when he visited the school and watched the Huskies lose to Louisville. Last weekend he traveled to New York to watch incoming freshmen Kentan Facey and Terrence Samuel in an all-star game, a strong indication of his investment in the program. Brimah, originally from Ghana, is expected to begin classes at UConn in early July.

"Amida was one of the most passionate basketball players I saw during the entire recruiting period, and I fell in love with his passion for the game," UConn coach Kevin Ollie said. "He showed leadership both on and off the court, and then he was the best player in the game."

Brimah, like Facey, has been playing organized basketball for only a few years. He played mostly soccer during his childhood in Ghana.

But as a senior at Miami's Archbishop Carroll, Brimah averaged 16 points, 11.7 rebounds and 7.2 blocks and shot 68 percent from the floor and 72 percent from the free-throw line. Brimah had five triple-doubles and helped Archbishop Carroll (26-5) reach the Florida Class 4A regional semifinals.

The consensus evaluation of Brimah is that he could help UConn immediately as a defensive presence, but that his offensive skills will need time to develop. UConn coaches began closely monitoring him last November, as did other schools.

"We think Amida can be another in the long line of outstanding UConn big men," Ollie said. "He's a terrific shot-blocker and rebounder. He's obviously got to get stronger , but he's got a chance to make an impact right away. I love the fact that he is dying to get up here this summer."

"With Amida joining Kentan and Terrence, we think we have three new players coming in who can all help us. What I like best is they each have a relentless motor that just keeps going. They are excited to play basketball."

we talkin YMCA nite league smellin like BenGay..

his name is an inversion of one of the only "cool" elected officials in Florida (i.e. Last Name First Name)

Duke's gotten TOO far away from the "Classic Duke Hate" mold with their "remembered" players as of recent. Zoubek vanished. Singler was close, but was too much a goon. Paulus might have been the last real "This Is Why We Hate Duke" player alongside Redick... because motherfuckers hated Redick like shit.

Austin didn't stay long enough to get that true hate. he (like SouthBeachMan said about Hendo) is like Kobe if he went to Duke. Which means he should have been the GOAT hated Duke player, but...

I couldn't bring myself to drudge up any kind of hate for dudes like Kyrie, Quinn Cook, and esp. Nolan Smith. I mean, CMON. They've been more Johnny Dawkins than Grant "Buzzer" Hill and Christian Laettner, even in their championship teams for a while.

only reason Kyrie dont get Duke hate is because he barely played for them. and i even then i still find myself like "damn i like a nigga off Duke? this is weird"

<--- Big Baller World Order

Austin was close, but he was gone real quick. He has potential for "residual" hate ala Laettner and other post-Dukies.

and certainly not like Boozer, He Who Shall Not Be Named, Baggins, Spaghetti, and friends did.

Oh shit. I did forget the one Dukie that I STILL hate years after he's gone.

SHELDEN
FUCKING
WILLIAMS.

Fuckin' Thwomp Trap lookin' ass...

I got no love for Duke basketball but I hate FSU, and the U-Rine as much as I hate Duke now. Especially FSU. Fake Forest, Pee-Tech and them are in the second-tier of hate.

That's the only difference

And its mostly about K

People started liking K...he might not be the
KEY to Duke hate but if you LIKE coach K it becomes
harder to hate Duke

More on that later

But to the current players? ALL these niggas just as hateable
if NOT MORE than Hill, Laettner, Hurley, etc

Umm Bobby Hurley has more street cred than 99.999% of hood
niggas, grew up way more hood than any Fab 5 nigga not
named Jalen or Juwan....we HATED him and there was almost
nothing to dislike about him, really

Even Grant Hill: could outjump all these Earl the Goat,
Helicopter Hearns types. Yeah, fucked up fade I guess...
...okay, that fade warranted the hate...but still, Hill
did nothing really to deserve hate (other than that fade,
good lord)

Compared to these modern niggas?

I mean serious:

Kyrie has a PERMANENT asshole smirk on his face

ALWAYS

There is less than a 10% chance that Kyrie is anything
more than a dick in real life

There is literally nothing likeable about Austin. He
was a jerk, had it seeping through his caesar

Quinn Cook shouted "this is my city" down double digits
to Maryland...he is easily one of the least likeable
people in SPORTS


ALL the fodder for hatred is there...one thing:


Duke and MOSTLY COACH K, started winning niggas over


The "they suck in the NBA" myth started disappearing, K
was restoring USA basketball back to glory and all of a
sudden it wasn't hateable anymore

>The "they suck in the NBA" myth started disappearing, K
>was restoring USA basketball back to glory and all of a
>sudden it wasn't hateable anymore

particularly the USA Basketball part. Larry Brown lived up to his "Bronze Brown" name after K outcoached him.

It's a begrudging respect that has replaced insta-hate.

The players? Yeah, Kyrie is low-key "Rondo" smug, Quinn Cook is the anti-Duke archetype, and Austin has the NOT-low-key Kobe gene... he is easily the most hateable out of the last few years.

but hateable Duke players peaked in the '90s... they will never reach the heights of Hurley, Hill, and Laettner. At least Buzzer cut his hair, I still hate Hurley and Laettner. Esp. Laettner, LOL

If this dude is good and cheap like Austin would have been had he stayed at Duke more than one year... he has a chance.

I'll put it like this. Duke now is like the Celtics after they got some Ricky Davis-type niggas.

I'm not gonna hit on any of those "future pro" agendas until I actually see him play in game, mind you-- all I've seen of the kid is online right now. But I like his style, and people I trust who've seen him in person dig his game and his potential, so no reason for me to fret over this signing.

i follow recruits for at least a year before they commit. duke was after dev booker and ahmed hill and then grayson started gaining notoriety and duke kicked the tires. K flat out likes him. he can shot and handle. grayson's a late-bloomer because he don't like to stand apart from his teammates. now in AAU or HS. not that's he's more comfortable doing that, he'd finding new parts of his game. everybody was chasing after him. at first it was just the SEC schools who'd seen him a lot.

kids emerge, dogg. said it plenty of times...the soph to junior year high school jump is no joke. kids come from NOWHERE to elite status. grayson was on the radar, but he is the hottest 2014 SG recruit right now.

I wanna go to where the martyrs went
the brown figures on the walls of my apart-a-ment...

Stauskas doubled all of Diebler's freshman numbers on a National Finalist and All-Regional selection

not only that, his 3PT% as a FR was better than Diebler's career mark

on top of being a higher usage player

just...no

*points to the record books*


*Maybe* you'll have a valid claim in 3 years after Stauskas graduates, and we can compare their 3 point numbers over a span of 4 years, but I doubt it.

It's cool that he made lots of 3s on his driveway though? I bet he got a trophy from his parents.

-------------------
I wanna go to where the martyrs went
the brown figures on the walls of my apart-a-ment...

but its not as high as 44%

and like i said, Diebler wasnt as accurate as that till he was a senior

Showed up 6'5 and cut, splashing jumpers from everywhere, tenacious on D, aggressive on offense, aggressively dropping those asshole white boy smirks.

His stock just keeps rising.

Hopefully in today's game, he approaches Tyus on the other bench and says, "yeah, you saw that 30 in 18 I dropped yesterday? Let's connect like Voltron on these chumps." Then Jabari will pop out of a nearby trash can like Oscar The Grouch, yell, "I MIGHT STICK AROUND ONE MORE, FOOD FOR THOUGHT," then disappear as quickly as he arrived.

<---https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DL9AVTQ

I mean unless he's a 1 & done type of sure shot kid. But I guarantee he would be in the NFL in 3 years with his physical talent at QB or Safety or WR/TE.




After Holiday Sale, take advantage of 25% off www.karmaloop.com w/ rep code JR9103 | Nike, G-Star, Spiewak, etc.
+ a full line of Women's wear (Jeffrey Campbell, etc.)

He went very public before Duke was even considering offering and said "I want to play for Duke, if they offer I will accept, it's been my dream to play for K, etc."

Dude loves basketball. And considering he fancies himself JJ Redick with a handle, if he comes close to delivering on what he wants to be, that's a first round pick.

Miami Heat, New York Yankees,buffalo bills

I know you don't mean Duke'll be short in talent next year. And even in size, with Hood, Jabari, and possibly Tarik Black next year, along with a taller Andre Dawkins off the bench and Amile Jefferson, we'll be bigger and more athletic at most positions than normal.

Plus, Allen is 6'5 and may reach 6'6. I'm not too worried about his height either.

Definitely looking forward to that Michigan game. Hoping Tarik Black comes along so that we have someone to guard McGary.
