QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ May 1, 2014 -> 08:20 PM) Yeah, because he's the only high school athlete that gets hype. Harrison Barnes was supposed to be Kobe 2.0. Rick Mount, Tom McMillen, Kevin Garnett, Sebastian Telfair and Jabari Parker were all on the cover of SI while still in high school. They wrote a big article on Demetrius Walker when he was like 14. This has the feel of your beasely over Rose logic

QUOTE (danman31 @ Apr 28, 2014 -> 08:06 PM) Anybody else see Mark Jackson saying fans should boycott Game 5? I wish he wouldn't say that because it would directly benefit his team in basketball terms. If Barkley or some other analyst or another owner/coach/player said that, fine. However, Jackson seems like he is taking advantage of the situation to benefit his team. Maybe he is being genuine, but it's impossible to separate the two. And I'm sure the vast majority of tickets have already been purchased before all this anyways. Yet it's ok for the players to play. Real fair for the fans to pay and just not show up. If he's so concerned, why doesn't he not go?

Isn't Laurence's always open?

thibs > Pop

I hate thibs for putting in hinrich so much and allowing him to shoot

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 22, 2014 -> 04:02 PM) I don't even know what your response means, but you clearly aren't aware that Rose only played 39 games the year he got injured and averaged a measly 35:14 mpg. If that's overused, then everyone should just kill themselves. That mpg put him at 37th in the league that season, behind guys like Andrew f***ing Bogut, Joe Johnson, Raymond f***ing Felton, etc. He wasn't over-used. He just gets hurt a lot. Pop woulda kept him under 30

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 22, 2014 -> 01:02 PM) Given Tim Duncan and Tony Parker, it wouldn't surprise me at all. I'd also like to see how Popp would do with this Bulls roster. A non-overused Rose maybe?

Much appreciated when the tv info is included

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 12, 2014 -> 02:02 PM) Eaton bad defense another gift. Yup wind played no part

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Apr 9, 2014 -> 05:23 PM) This is a bit much, no? People certainly get worked up in these game threads. You new here??

Thanks for posting the tv info. I come here first so it saves me a lot of trouble when that's included.

Joe vs. the Volcano duh

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 11, 2014 -> 05:25 AM) Brandon Hutton from De La Salle chose Iowa over Wisconsin. Athletic and energetic. Sometimes out of control. Has his senior year to improve. Hutton and Martez Cameron have been fun to watch. Great to see De still developing some high major talent, and their run to the CCL championship made this year enjoyable.

I feel embarrassed just reading j4l

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Mar 5, 2014 -> 09:31 AM) Ok, let me spell it out for you, it's complicated. One can't help but look at what happened to Cliff losing and think about Karma. No one said anything about kids. But if they didn't qualify, then whatever. We don't know the story. Anyway, they lost the game on the court to a lesser team, so in that sense they did deserve it. LMAO karma over the hat thing?! I had all but forgotten about that along with the childish bitterness and hate that illini fans hold in their hearts over something so dumb...

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Mar 5, 2014 -> 08:53 AM) Go look up the definition of karma. Excellent attempt at elaborating on your one word response, refuting in any way what I posted, and continuing the discussion.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Mar 4, 2014 -> 08:49 PM) Karma. No, not at all. The kids didn't deserve it at all.

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 4, 2014 -> 08:28 PM) No Stamps bros but still should've won. Nobody to blame but their coach. AD and school admin

Sluuuuuuuurp

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 22, 2014 -> 06:35 AM) Isn't that at University of Chicago? Which is your school? Mt Carmel or De La Salle? And sorry, those were the worst coached OTs ever. Hmm it's at Chicago State according to the De La Salle website and maxpreps. I know the previous rounds were at U of Chicago, though. It'll suck if I make that trip for no reason lol I'm a De La Salle alum. And I didn't mind the strategy of holding out for the last shot. I just wanted to see the ball in Cliff's hands a lot more, especially once Paul White fouled out after Okafor already had. Regardless, I consider Oliver and Slaughter great coaches.

Great Curie win in 4 OTs over Whitney Young. They got their first city championship ever. Congrats to Coach Oliver who's been there for 19 years. I'll be back at Chicago State to watch my alma mater in the Catholic League championship.

I have a crappy satellite service that came with my place that I now just about never use, so I'm kinda close to "cutting the cord." I pretty much just always have the WatchESPN app on my roku on whenever I watch TV. Then there's netflix, amazon, hbogo, and sometimes even music. I like the UK netflix offerings better. I also have google chromecast...not as nice as roku, but I'll occasionally watch some youtube vids on it. And, of course, there's redbox along with a bunch of blu-rays I've gotten the past couple of "black fridays" that I haven't gotten around to watching I also bought a cheap hdtv antenna but haven't hooked it up yet. Lastly, a friend comes over sometimes and we hook up their NBA league pass to the tv. I don't watch as much of my sports teams anymore, though :/

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 7, 2014 -> 10:37 AM) Everyone will have a DRose, and the other players come and go. Be different. Go old school. Kornel David is the jersey you want. Good ole' #18. His horrifically atrocious "game winning" attempt where he heaves a shot up from almost half court with about TEN seconds left will forever be etched in my brain. I was a young, naive die-hard back then that was mildly excited about the ron mercer signing and endured years of torture watching the likes of eddie robinson and the dynamic duo of khalid el amin and jake voschul, to name a few.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jan 29, 2014 -> 07:19 PM) The Moto X wasn't doing great on sales (why do you think the phone's been discounted to $329 after initially selling at $500?) and Moto's margins are probably pretty bad ATM. Moto does have great potential though. Hopefully Lenovo leaves it alone and lets it develop like it has been for the past year. I think that a lot of it has to do with Nexus pricing also. It seemed like plenty of people were expecting similar pricing and were hugely turned off when it was that much more, particularly for lesser specs. Now that people know that it performs well, there seems to be better interest, especially at the nexus-like price point. If it gets to $300 including the wood backs, I'd get one even though I have a nexus 5.
