FTFY.
I'm just telling you what Cal said on camera, with the huge block and basket sequence, but you be you man.
Go Suns!

Cal seems to have found a unit that works and it doesn't seem to include Poythress much. I hope Cauley-Stein is o.k.

Poythress did come up with a huge play. He deserves credit.

TOO, I think your thinking of Michigan State.

It should be Randle vs Morgan/GRIII...Stauskias vs the Harrisons...

My one friend who I usually go to the draft with (huge sixer fan btw, so obviously he has been a prospect junky this yr espcially) hates Julius Randle as a prospect. I find myself defending him often even though I'm not crazy about him (I still have him in my top 7). I'm curious where you guys see Randle going...He specifically hates how he plays D and his measureables (says his arms are too small) my knock on Randle has been he doesn't always bring it, but I think he may of played his best game of the yr vs Wichita State (complete game)...and He and Gordon are the only likely top 10 picks that are still playing.

For the record my friend absolutely loves Exum. I always say he's the wild card (well him and Embid based on Embids health) but He has him 2 behind Wiggins on his board.

I think we should make a Game Day thread for the U of A game. Go Cats!

Well they are going...going home. I've never thought much of Wisconsin, but they've got scoreboard. I didn't think they would be able to beat Arizona.

Is it time to start talking about Frank Kaminsky as a potential lotto pick?

Kaminsky was just nasty in that game. I don't know whether his game translates to the NBA, though. I like the guy but I'm not sure a center who shoots 3s is really what I'd want with a 1st round pick.

I'm not sure why that's something to hold against him. It's not like that's all he does.

He's not Pittsnoggle. More of a complete player then him.

Today's predictions...

Sparty 61
UCONN 52

Kentucky 74
Michigan 68

Angered Wisconsin ruined the potential Aaron Gordon vs Julius Randle showdown

Kaminsky seems like a Frye/Olynyk mash-up if that makes sense.
