Brass Cannon Posted April 22, 2019 Posted April 22, 2019 I don’t really enjoy the NBA anymore. Just feel like Jersey sales have become the overriding decision makers during games when it comes to officiating. It’s gone way beyond the superstar bonus of the 90s.

When Bird, Magic, Dr J, Isaiah etc played, I watched every game I could. They played harder back then IMO Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk Ill take NHL playoffs over NBA playoffs any day. I loved the NBA in the 90's but feel like it has fallen off since I enjoyed the rivalries and they seem to be no more. The quality of coach has also disappeared. It's a new style of run and game and jacking up 3's. I loved the physicality of the 80s and 90s. Probably why I gravitate to NHL now. ALASKA HOOSIER and woodenshoemanHoosierfan 2 Quote

The NBA really isn't for me -- not now or then -- but I'll see any NBA jersey related call made recently and raise you a Larry Johnson four point play foul call against the Pacers in the Eastern conference finals. lillurk 1 Quote
Popular Post WayneFleekHoosier Posted April 26, 2019 Popular Post Posted April 26, 2019 This kinda stuff worries me. Not about winning or team. Just showcasing. We need this type of talent though. Like I say, I’m conflicted what to root for anymore, because we don’t have an identity that has proven to work. Final thought. I want Watford because Justin Smith scares the bejesus out of me. I would root for him to overachieve and become a one and done.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Hollywood Mike Miranda, Class of '66 Old Fart, HoosierAloha and 14 others 17 Quote

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Christian is not Trendon and Trendon is not Christian. Anyone with a sibling knows they can't read your mind or perfectly represent your views even if you are very close. All that being said he may just be retweeting someone because they said anything positive about his brother. They're talking about how good he is. Mentioning that he could potentially leave after one year just contextualizes HOW good he is as that's a rarefied tier. Or maybe Christian knows who runs the account and is trying to push views to the platform. Could be anything. And no matter what it is Christian is not his brother. You have to really twist yourself into knots to take a tweet written by someone else, retweeted by a recruit's brother for unknown reasons, and take that to imply something negative about the recruit himself. It's powerfully ridiculous. Quote

I would still love to get Watford but I found him more intriguing when there was little talk of him being a one and done.We will need guys like that more down the road but right now we need to build Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app HoosierAloha and HoosierTrav 2 Quote
Stuhoo Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 Every time I think that Trendon Watford is leaning back toward LSU Will Wade takes another blow to his chances of survival as their coach. https://sports.yahoo.com/news/ls-us-will-wade-faces-another-serious-allegation-222344000.html Class of '66 Old Fart, JaybobHoosier, mamasa and 2 others 5 Quote
BH33 Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 New CB picks for Trendon, too. 2 for LSU, 1 for Bama (from the Memphis guy). Memphis fans seem to want Precious more, so the local talk on him seems to have died down a little. HoosierAloha and Stuhoo 2 Quote

I'm still where I was before; I think that he ends up at Bama, with Memphis a possibility and IU a long shot with a chance. Quote
HoosierRobbie Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 Anyone that would go to LSU right now for basketball can’t be thinking things through. No offense to Trendon, but LSU would be my last choice right now.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mdn82, IUsafety, Deserthoozier and 1 other 4 Quote

I hope he goes to LSU or Bama since IU isn’t realistic. I don’t want to see him at Memphis.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote
Hollywood Mike Miranda Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 This was from Trendon's IG story yesterday. I would assume he's pretty close to making a decision if he's requesting help with a commitment video. mamasa 1 Quote

Markky Mark will call the school in question about the check. They’ll deny it and Markky Mark will let it go. Before they get off the phone they’ll ask Markky Mark to forward the check to the family and he’ll oblige. Meanwhile, we’ll report a secondary violation for making a phone call to CWat, during a dead period, to talk about how he viewed his time at IU and what the program could do to excel in this time of ****. (Apologies for the off topic post but I’m sick and ******* tired of the NCAA and their absolute corrupt “governing” of their member schools)I don’t see T Wat at IU but I’ll definitely follow his career and hope that CWat rejoins the program in some facet.
