Watched Jimmer play for the first time last night and I was impressed. I know that's just one game but apparently he's been doing that all year. She showed some good vision with his passing (much...

Wow lots of ignorance going on here. Just because a guy is European doesn't mean he's not a good player or that he's soft. Just draft the best player available no matter where he's from.
Looks like Mulitpaul's been busy. No wonder he hasn't posted on this site lately. =)
I think Triano will surprise some of the ppl here on the Republic who doubted him last year. I always thought he was a good coach but was justt too much of a nice guy last season but it's nice to see...
Hey chris, I'm out in Vancouver too and I haven't seen anything or heard anything about it either. The casual fan has no way of knowing that this is happening. I have some friends who are basketball...
I think that's an indicator of the talent level more than anything. Like what Lark Benson said, there's not too many playmakers on this edition of Team Canada outside of Anderson, and even then he's...
I think in a few years Team Canada will be very good. The junior teams did really well in the past World Championships (U-17 bronze, U-18 bronze) and it will take some time for them to move up to the...
I think Pat Riley get's a "god shirt" before BC does. :)
LOL Multipaul, your love of Bargs is truly admirable. I really hope you're right in that Bargs becomes an all-star because the Raptors are in big trouble of no one out of: Bargs, DD or anyone else BC...
I think Amir is still going to get better. I see his ceiling as being a Joachim Noah type of player. Would you pay for Joachim Noah at $7 mil per season? I would. He's not quite where Noah is yet...
Was he maybe saying that there was interest from 25-30 teams instead of saying how much teams were offering? I don't know I didn't watch it.
Wasn't Beasley offered to the Nets for Keyon Dooling and the Nets rejected? I thought I remembered reading that somewhere and being surprised by how much teams want to stay away from this guy.
Well looks like everyone spoke way too soon. LOL I like how people criticize GMs for not trading for this guy, or not signing that guy but in reality we really don't know the whole story. Maybe BC...
You're right he didn't leave as quietly as most would've liked but you still can't ignore the fact that he played hard and well for most of the games he played in while he was here. He leaves the...
I sort of agree - we don't need Chalmers or Beasley but draft picks and especially the trade exception could be huge for the Raptors. They can use that trade exception to get that real point guard...
I wouldn't mind taking back Varejo and hickson, draft picks and TPE from Cleveland. I think at this point it's all about collecting assets which we could then deal later on in the summer. It's better...
You just said everything I was going to say. 100% agree.
1) Pau Gasol was Top 3 I believe.
2) It depends on your definition of combo guard. I think D Wade is a combo guard, same with Jason Terry, G. Arenas, Monta Ellis, etc. Not every single one is a...
I don't think Kobe would be "regularly outplayed" if he played in Europe at 40 yrs old or so. It's not such an up and down, athletic game over there as it is in the NBA. The thing about Jordan is...
Well actually some players do play in summer leagues and basketball camps (remember Lebron getting dunked on by Jordan Crawford?) and some play in streetball leagues (Rucker Park, etc.).
I'm not...
Don't forget that he actually spent some of his childhood growing up in Italy. He actually wore the number 8 (originally) because he grew up watching Mike D'Antoni who also wore the number 8. He is a...
*Bradley is way more of a high risk/high reward player than Davis* (oops Sorry)
I really liked Avery Bradley too because he filled a need for perimeter defense but how can you not like this pick for the Raptors. Ed Davis fills a need as well (good defender and rebounder) and is...
Actually NO ONE really tears it up in the Euroleague, it's not like the NBA with isolations, shots early in the shot clock, etc. It's a slower paced game, more hand-checking allowed, and I don't...
I don't think Minnesota would give up a top 5 pick in Rubio PLUS another 1st round pick for Bargs. So it would probably have to be Rubio and some filler for Bargs. Personally, I like Rubio enough...
