Only 2 episodes in but Orphan Black maybe be my fav new show of the year.

AAU guy I know said its down to Illinois and MSU for Alexander. Go Groce!

QUOTE (zenryan @ Apr 7, 2013 -> 08:39 AM) That reference or saying doesnt apply to this situation. I thought it looked like a block as soon as it happened. It was clear the Michigan player slid under as the Orange player was going to the basket. The replays showed that the Michigan guy pretty much took two slide steps to get to that spot. So you watch the action away from the ball while watching on TV? You are one of the rare ones, because it was obviously very tough to tell in real time unless you were doing so. I admit, as a Michigan fan, it was a block but only could tell on the replay. I agree with Greg Anthony when he says that so many mistakes are made throughout the whole game, whether its players, coached or refs, that is evens out. They're all human. I was getting frustrated with the tight play the last few minutes. Twice they broke the press and had 3 on 1's but instead of doing to the bucket, they passed the ball out.

I think in real time, it looked like a charge. Refs obviously don't have instant replay to see that it probably was a block. Michigan still gave them every chance, throwing up bricks from the FT line. You can say the ball doesn't lie and Michigan still held on. See ya Monday NIght! Saw Boeheim getting sassy and short with a few reporters in the post game press conference. Too bad.

Or not

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 6, 2013 -> 05:12 PM) LOL Jake said this almost verbatim the day after it happened. But his reasoning was a little different I was fine with it the day after, but now its too much. And than they throw him in the nd of that little opening video for Louisville. I know he doesn't, but it looks like Smith travels everytime he penetrates.

Sorry to be the ass, but can we stop with the over dramatizing of the Ware injury? It was awful and hope he's ok but he is like the 8th guy on the team.

Jalen Brunson is playing on the same AAU team as Okafor this summer. I'd pay to see that.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Apr 5, 2013 -> 04:33 PM) I think its possible McGary comes out this year. I bet he's 50/50. Hope he stays because I just don't see him being able to guard anyone in the NBA right now. cant defend at rim yet

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 5, 2013 -> 11:17 AM) Considering that the Tribune ran a daily section covering the Simeon basketball team, there was no way Jabari wouldn't win it. True. People don't realize it's a Tribune award as well. Suntimes clearly has better prep coverage IMO. I could be biased in that sentiment.

Surprised how much I liked the Hannibal premiere. Good secondary characters. Never read the books.

QUOTE (farmteam @ Apr 4, 2013 -> 11:00 AM) There was something oddly fun about sitting on the floor in the corner of Blockbuster with 6 movies at in front of you trying to figure out which one or two you were going to rent. Worked at Blockbuster for two years in high school. Can still smell it. Despite the rude customers, worked with a lot of cool people and had fun times hanging with them outside of work. You guys got me all nostalgic.

QUOTE (Jake @ Apr 4, 2013 -> 08:52 PM) BRILLIANT NO CALL I LOVE YOU NAZR Lopez went up rather soft on that. Glad ref didnt bail him out

Lopez has 18 points but 1 rebound. Ha

QUOTE (SexiAlexei @ Apr 4, 2013 -> 06:54 PM) Probably when he no longer has plantar fasciitis, but still refuses to play because his worthless brother makes his decisions for him. While his bro maybe giving bad advice, him being worthless is lay out BS since he was a huge factor in keeping Derrick out of trouble growing up and keeping him on the right path. We have a bunch of Dave Kaplans on this board.

When are people going to start calling Noah a girl?

I was actually surprised Jabari won Mr BBall in Illinois. He had a great last month but thought Okafor or Ullis should have. They'll be favorites for it next year.

I'd recommend checking out the replay of the ORPHAN BLACK pilot tonight on BBC. New ep on Sat.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 07:15 PM) Wrong. It was never about if they are good enough, it was about their resume. Not talking about resume. Just watching them now, they are better than teams that got in. I understand why they didnt get in.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 06:45 PM) What exactly did Coach K do to him when he was at Duke? I've heard Bernstein rip him before, but I've never heard the details. Probably forgot his name once.
