Overseas elite is stacked

First gm as today. Big X is mostly ex Ohio st, Michigan st, and Wisconsin kids. Kellen Dunham from butler is playing with them too against a bunch of ex d2 players

First time I've watched live sports since Georgetown Villanova on March 7th.

Just crazy...

Haha. I was actually in Hawaii on vacay. Actually planned it so I would be back from the airport to catch the selection show. Know how that turned out...

Brotherly Love with a free pass to the quarters because some douche from Eberlein couldnt stay away from other people for a few weeks prior to the 1 million dollar tourney.

So the entire 5 seed gets to go home

Guy passed tests like 5 times and randomly showed up as asymptomatic today. I think the system is flawed.

i'm amazed at how many mediocre american basketball players can earn a living playing overseas.

Aaron Rountree will always be the first name that comes to mind. Horrible ACC player, bad MAAC player, but he's out there playing in Europe. That's like getting accepted into a master's program despite having a substandard undergraduate GPA.

What height is he anyway? I've seen him listed anywhere from 6"7" to 6'9" and some of these guys(Duke has them too) are just bodies to scrimmage with

Rountree was listed at 6'8 when he was at Wake. His only useful basketball skill was help side defense. He was awful at everything else. It's insane that he's been able to parlay his lack of skills into a professional basketball career. He's not the only one that's been able to do that, but he's the most obvious example.

I live one neighborhood over from a guy who played in Europe, he's 6'11" and I coached his daughter in AAU with my daughter and the only reason he was able to play was his size. He did marry a pretty good looking Italian girl whose father left her a furniture business, I guess that was the perk!

yeah, it's pretty ridiculous. from a talent perspective, i have much more respect for baseball, football and hockey players than basketball players. 99% of basketball players have won the genetic lottery and that isn't a skill.

Bit sloppy but the boys advance. Didnt get much from Buycks or Jamil but both we big in Elam time.

Shame DJO randomly played for a different team last year. We'd be the defending champs.

Back to the final 4. Lets hope we can close it this year

Seeing this chubby dude trying to guard Joe Johnson is incredible. Lmao. Also, I remember this Elmore dude from the tournament a couple years back. Dude has range.

mr.hockey4242 · Jul 12, 2020

Back to the finals.

Lets win this one!!!

Well its safe to say SC was underseeded

I like how Joe Johnson just walked right off the court.

Took it a little more seriously than I thought...

mr.hockey4242 · Jul 12, 2020

Sideline gonna be a tough out. They have beat the 2 and 3 seeds already(though Cuse was overrated as shit).

I think our main edge going in is we got a lot of guards we can throw on Keene to at least try and slow him. Not sure that they really have anyone to throw on Jamil.
