Agree, but it's a known fact he did call his own plays.

Dude...I was watching basketball way before you were a dirty thought in your daddy's head...it's NOT good basketball.

Whatever the f'n reasons, it f'n sucks donky ass...I'm sorry you have never seen real basketball.

This is why don’t watch pros. Grew up in the 90s and it’s pretty evident how much the sport has gone downward

So...

Modern offensive minded Basketball = bad / old school, defensive minded Basketball = good

- but -

Modern offensive minded Football = good / old school, defensive minded Football = also good


Why the difference?

Because every fanbase will have goobers like that… same thing with Bama fans calling Heupel offense gimmick and ignoring their own basketball style is basically the same thing with Nate Oats…

Hear me out:

We move West to DT, and Josephs/Ross can move to SDE, that way we can have the trip of Pearce/West/Josephs or Ross on the field at the same time

That will probably be this year’s “cheetah” package. West can be this year’s Baron.

IMO Josephs/Ross aren’t big enough to play SDE consistently.

Rules and how they are blatantly ignored or applied depending on the game in both sports is a turn off. If it becomes entertainment more than sport, I’ll bounce.

Another problem with modern basketball is also a strength of the modern player. Deep shots.

You have players shooting feet outside the three point line. Sometimes so deep no one is even guarding them. It is a testament to their skill as a shooter, but it is not often engaging to watch. Not like a guy cutting through the lane to dunk on someone. Statistically it makes total sense, but it is often less entertaining.

Could look at reducing rim size to make it a tighter fit for the balls to go through…

This is not my stance, but I think the rub with modern basketball is the disregard for stats knowing shots might have been largely uncontested. Or the ability to get cheap baskets with ticky tack fouls.

With football there has been a softening of the rules in favor of offense, but defense is still integral. This year in college they were letting defenses drape on recievers. Made for engaging receptions.

Just one current example is how James Harden had built a career around bs fouls

Back when basketball was good, he would have paid severely every time he pulled one of those.

MJ is the GOAT. Anyone who says different is just wrong. Prime Jordan would school Prime LeBron and make him cry.

Wash, Rinse, Repeat...

 

[SweetasSoda]

a ref calling every touch a foul. Then. It calling things like this walks. Does not mean offense is better

This is terrible offense imo. If they called walks and didn’t call every touch it would fix a lot. We need to stop short of laimbeer. But lebron acting assaulted on every touch is ridiculous

And nothing in this clip resembles good offense.

Can’t watch

They don't even know they were supposed to play last night! What kind of mickey mouse organization are we running over there Rick!?

I don’t like this…I LOVE IT!! Amazing what Heup has done with this program in just 3 years. He told the truth too…his words will be his actions. That’s a rarity for a D1 head coach. Kudos, coach!

My boy signed with the Army National Gaurd this week. He'll graduate in May. MOS 15T. Plan is to have it pay for college and provide a retirement.

I am coming up on 26 years and plan to retire in about 18 months. The NG has helped me earn two degrees and provided much for my family over that time. It has also been a huge sacrifice but I would not trade my time in service for anything. It has been a blessing. Good luck to your son and I pray that his service is as much a blessing to him as mine has been to me.

Michigan hires Moore as coach on 5-year deal

Michigan promoted Sherrone Moore to head coach Friday, two days after Jim Harbaugh left to guide the Chargers.

www.espn.com

Did anyone else look at the terms of his contract? Am I wrong, or is that strange what his base salary is, and how his contract is setup? It screams to me that they know they are about to get hammered with sanctions, and they only hired him to get them through that period of time.
