Get ready for a week of "redemption" stories about Bruce Pearl.

The thing is everyone I know has a story about how slimy he is.

Congrats MJ and Michigan State!  RJ Barrett was the death of Duke. Could not hit a free throw.

MSU reaches Final Four!  Glad to see a Big Ten team make it.

There are a lot of hilarious names on here.

I know one thing for sure, the third name from the bottom of this list isn't happening.

Report: Wizards To Replace Ernie Grunfeld, Finally, My God, I Thought They'd Never Do It

Quote
Grunfeld, for the mercifully unacquainted, had been running the Wizards’ basketball operations since 2003 and is a living monument to organizational stagnation, as well as bad-faith and craven ass-covering. He’s the appallingly incompetent shit-for-brains who:

Traded three players and the fifth overall pick in the 2009 draft—which, not for nothing, could have been used to select Stephen fucking Curry—to the Minnesota Timberwolves for Mike Miller and Randy Foye, a pair of role players both of whom were entering the final seasons of their contracts, and neither of whom remained with the Wizards after the following season; and

Gave Gilbert Arenas a six-year, $111 million contract after the knee injury and surgery that permanently sapped Arenas’s athleticism and reduced him to a husk of himself—the contract that prompted the NBA to create its 2011 amnesty clause; and

Traded Arenas for Rashard Lewis, up to then the only player in history with a contract nearly as bad as Arenas’s; and

Gave washed-up 32-year-old Antawn Jamison, who sucked even in his prime, a four-year contract extension worth $50 million; and

Tried to build a team around the insanely awful “Big Three” of Nick Young, Andray Blatche, and JaVale McGee; and

Just in the first round of the 2011 draft alone, selected two of the worst players in NBA history, Jan Vesely and Chris Singleton; and

When his grand (dumbfuck) plan to lure Kevin Durant to D.C.—he cleared salary space by loading the roster with mercenary short-timers whose contracts all expired at the same time, with the predictable result that an up-to-then young and rising squad played like malcontented shit all season, missed the playoffs, and squandered all the momentum and goodwill they’d built over the previous two seasons—predictably failed, used the salary cap space he’d cleared to grant world-historically stupid long-term contracts to the nightmare dumpster triad of Ian Mahinmi, Jason Smith, and Andrew Nicholson, locking the team into cap hell for at least a half-decade to come, during which, thanks to the many shortsighted trades he’s made over the years to save his own job in the ruin of previous appalling decisions, it’ll also be chronically short of draft picks; and

Let then-29-year-old locker-room lynchpin Trevor Ariza leave in free-agency after he played a huge role in a thrilling and successful 2014 postseason run; signed Paul Pierce to a one-year contract to replace him; let Pierce walk the following offseason; drafted Kelly Oubre Jr. in 2015 to be the wing of the future, then traded Oubre to the Phoenix Suns in 2018... for washed-up 33-year-old Trevor Ariza.

Signed 25-year-old Otto Porter to a max contract and traded him for flotsam and cap relief less than 20 months later; and

...so, so, so much more. This barely scratches the surface! I’m not even gonna touch John Wall’s supermax extension, due to kick in next season, during which he’ll be rehabbing the Achilles tear that very well may have ended the productive part of his career. I am already grinding my teeth to powder, so that’s where I’ll stop.

Good luck to the next guy who gets to figure out what to do with the John Wall contract.

What are the odds of outlawing the dunk shot in college?  :emot_laughing:

I was watching last night when a big (center type) TCU dude took a clear path to the basket. Launched from the court and sailed to the rim, went for the "in your face" slam and missed. With entertainment like that, I hope they don't outlaw the dunk.

I did indeed. Especially the last 3 paragraphs.

Quote
But Archie Talley, who averaged 41.1 points per game in the NAIA at Salem College in the 1970s, says the decline of superscorers can be traced to shooting fundamentals. Kids today, he says, grow up chucking off-balance 3s. “A lot of them shoot with their arms or the palm of their hands. It’s not these kids’ fault, but the ball should never touch the palm of your hand,” says Talley, who once scored 50 points four times in a single week and lately has taught shooting at many basketball camps.

Talley also played at a time when college basketball outlawed the dunk. “The reason guys can’t shoot is because of touch,” he adds. “How do you think Kareem [Abdul-Jabbar] and these guys developed a touch? I think they should get rid of the dunk.”

Sure, try selling ESPN on that one.

I like the dunk myself, but John Wooden wouldn't let his players in practice do it.

There are different ways to skin a cat.

He's saying the same thing a lot of coaches say.  Players and coaches focus too much on scrimmaging than fundamentals and footwork.   While players have become faster, stronger and more athletic via weight training, nutrition and sport science, they don't "work" on their games.

Over in Europe at the sport academies they have two practices a day.  One on individual work in the morning, then they go to class, then a team practice after that.
