And McRoberts and Fitzner have had plenty of minutes....they are up to speed?

Starting tonight we are going in the deep freeze around here. Hopefully, if the weather reports hold true, I can get back out this week-end. Nothing tastes better than fish through the ice.

Yeah......I mean meh.

What exactly is your point? Or do you have one?

No. Billy D is doing fine in the NBA. To be honest, it is an easier gig at that level than what it it is in college.

Really? That was my point. Boston has more to offer than LA.

But they got the picks?

To play the Devil's advocate here....the coaches are making millions. When you are getting paid that kind of cash how should the fan base react?

Says who? Boston has picks and young talent. Unless I am mistaken they have 4 1st round picks this summer.

Is it? Why not Boston?

No, not on my end. I didn't start talking about him going to LA.

Fishing is a big part of my life. Went out this morning. Ice was good at 6-8"s. The bite sucked. Brought home 5 gills, and 1 crappie.

So you think the Lakers is his destination?

The Boston Celtic approach.

To be honest, I get tired of K being brought up in these kind of topics. He took over a team that before he got there had a heckuva 3 year run. Duke had made the EE before he got there. They did make the NIT his first year, but there were pieces there and he did well with them. But he went to Duke at the absolute wrong time. The ACC was stacked and it was only an 8 team league. 81........UNC and Virginia made it to FF. 82.....UNC wins the title. 83......NC State wins the title. Heck, we beat UNC in 84 but fell to UVA in the EE.

Sparty 87 IU 61

Little late to the game...but I will play if I can. Rutgers 67 IU 61

Think 1981. Knight unleashed the hounds.

Or a bunch of 1st round draft picks?

Oh yeah, I see that all the time. Marshall, Holtmann, etc... And of coarse you have the maniacs that say it should have been Donovan or Stevens.

Missouri?

Just seen where Anthony Davis wants out of New Orleans. Hmmmmmm.

Illinois?

Knight won in 2 years, Davis won in 2 years, Sampson won in 2 years.....now I give Crean a pass because of the mess he walked into. I get that Archie his implementing his system and it will take some time for a "buy in". That just ain't the players...it goes for the fan base as well.

I have seen several theories on why. Lack of competition, his injury last year, and the most interesting was his AAU play.
