yeah the shot looked good but you could see he was v slow and robotic gathering himself and making his move, which is fine when youre playing against college dudes but would get eaten up by pro defenses

the worst case for davis is, idk, stromile swift

if you put him in the pros today hed prob be better than peak stro swift

the worst case for davis is, idk, stromile swift

no

there is no good comparison for Anthony Davis, which is why he's so intriguing.

yep

My wife calls him Frida Kahlo.

hahaha

pitino accidentally shows his real face, calipari is more pro

Rick Pitino = Bethenny Frankel. Just had to get that out there.

calipari doesn't have a real face tho

troo

Q: If Calipari wins, and the championship is later vacated, will the secret trophy rooms in the heads of basketball announcers reflect this? Or will they continue to call him a champion?

the practice of repossessing schools wins is so silly, like yeah it never happened

Yeah, it is silly. But Calipari's image is too glossy, and that includes the image projected on him by most announcers. He should be forced to look like Smiegel to match his inner corruption. Bill Belichick's doing it right.

post on the nyt basketball blog today saying anthony davis' best comparison is c-webb in that both are crazily talented and could totally dominate games but may end up being viewed as "disappointments" bcuz of their passivity

davis plays like a shooting guard who wished on a magic lamp for inspector gadget arms

closing in on tip-off time, stoked!

THIS WAS LIKE "PREDATOR: REBOUND" omg

First game I really got to watch Anthony Davis. Impressive player. Somewhat comparable to Kareem as a UCLA freshman.

literally sirens, helicopters, & gunshots in lexington tonight

KegsnEggs: "They also have a propane tank" was just mentioned over the Lexington police scanner. #runyall

Anthony Davis's mom <3

smgdh

come on that hilarious

^^

Meanwhile, in the other NCAA basketball tournament, the Baylor Bears win the chip by finishing the season 40-0, behind 6'8" center Brittney Griner.

Cody Zeller and Christian Watford will both return for the Hoosiers next season.

indiana will come back big

mason plumlee will return to duke next season

no one cares; he sucks

uconn is imploding

dummond and lamb both gone, oriakhi transferring

that's like a normal offseason at any major cbb school

well idk i mean all our impact players are gone, we can't play in the tournament next year which kills our recruting, plus i bet calhoun will retire in the next couple months

yeah, RIP

I think Drummond might have come back without the NCAA bringing the hammer down on the program
