Are you the same guy that said Steve Forbes was going to Iowa?

No, always knew it was a longshot.

Let me rephrase. I thought he had a chance but knew that the odds were against it.

Chism has already done the smartest thing a marginal draft prospect can do. He's hired an honest, stand up guy as his agent.

I wouldn't be at all surprised to look up ten years from now and see Jared at the level of a David Falk or an Arn Tellum as an agent.

There are plenty of teams who wouldn't even consider drafting Hopson. Of the five or six teams I know the personnel guys well enough to feel comfortable speaking about what they look for, I can only think of one that might draft him and they'd tell him to go to Europe for two years and see where he's at after that. Teams that would draft Hopson are the ones who think their staff will be able to get a guy to do things nobody else has ever gotten the guy to do. There's a name for teams like that: lottery participants.

Thank you. I gained back a small amount of faith in mankind after reading that.

Wayne is in all orange (including headband) except for his purple shorts. One of the few where you know where he went to school

Wayne came in with his team down 2 and they're up 12 now. He's absolutely abusing the center from Cornell right now on D.

Jerome Randall has been impressive tonight running the point but it looks like Wayne wasn't kidding about the slick ball

Why? What does he posses that other players don't? So tell me, why would he be drafted? His size? Lots of players have his size in the NBA. His shot? Has potential but not enough to justify drafting him. His attitude? Terrible. Once he starts missing shots he doesn't stop missing shots and gets down on himself and his play reflects his lack of confidence. His defense? Almost as bad as his attitude. So why would a team give any amount of money to have Hopson on their team?

Stay in school Scotty. Don't be an idiot.

you should have said, 'Don't be a fool!' ......it rhymes

Bummer for Wheezy. 2 points on 1-7 shooting and 5 rebounds against Deon Thompson's team in the Finals.
