2016 NBA Off-Season Thread part 2

[Heatles84]

The SEC's down as far as what I would consider to be legitimate contenders this year, but the overall depth is probably still the best. I'm with you on the Big 10's Big 3 though, best in college football.

I agree, depth is certainly the best when we're comparing mid-tier teams. But when we're factoring elite teams, which conferences are generally measured by you have the following contenders by numbers per conference:

Pac-12: 1 (UW)
SEC: 1 (Bama)
ACC: 2 (Clemson and Louisville)
Big 10: 3 (Ohio St, Michigan, Wisconsin)
Big 12: 0 (maybe Baylor and they're schedule's been weak)

I would definitely add A&M to the list for the SEC, but unfortunately they run into Bama this week.

Yup. They're inconsistent on both offense and defense. I'm just not convinced that Sumlin will put them over the top - then again many coaching careers have ended in the SEC because they couldn't beat Bama. But yeah, they're probably going to get rolled.

only certain programs are good year in year out for the passed decade +.......Florida, Auburn, USC, Texas, FSU, so many others- just couldnt sustain greatness.

The Buckeyes and Alabama seem to be the 2 programs that rarely ever lose a step.

Gawd I wish he were still with us....

Pac would have been unbearable had he lived thru that last shooting. By his own words, he thought he was invincible.

Now it's all about Versace, You copied my style.
Five shots couldn't drop me, I took it and smiled.

Plus, in the streets, you can't live after saying shit like this...lol


First off, fuck your bitch
And the clique you claim
West side when we ride
Come equipped with game
You claim to be a player
But I fucked your wife
We bust on Bad Boys
niggas fuck for Life

It's coaching. Both programs have the clear cut best coaches in the nation.

I thought he retired last season. I can admit it.

hahahahaaha he had such a way with words! I think he & Cube are the best at sending powerful messages through their raps.

If Pac & Biggie were still here we wouldn't be hearing anything about Jay-Z being one of the best rappers or any of these other wanna be thugs.
Pac gets major play in my ride- was just listening to him go off on NAS in "against all odds"

Had they drafted Melo, Prince's ass would have been glued to the bench.

Interesting. I like J Cole too. I also like Wale- I am hearing a lot of his music on my Pandora and have come to like most of it.
