No wonder you've been hating all these times bro.... You can't really understand my whole psyche/plight until you've heard about the Asian condoms... which BTW is no joke.. it was literally a "painful experience".

I can't believe I have to explain this to you. You are putting it on wrong. You have to squeeze the tip!

Learn to put them on right and it won't hurt. Gets way to damn dry after a couple minutes though.

IS this a picture of an Asian condom? You must have a huge you know if you can't fit into that. I bet your you know is so big that you were forced to name it big guy. I wish I was so comfortable with the size of my you know that I could tell every one how huge it was. One day when I grow up I hope that my you know is as impressive as yours.

Aaron Harrison not even in the top 20 of this Si.com ranking...

Wow.. what a bargain he would be in the 20's...

Not really. If he stays outside the top 20 it means he had a disappointing season and isn't as good as we thought. But 20 or so is where I predict the Jazz will draft with their second pick. GS likely finishes in the mid -20's and I see Utah combining that pick and their 2nd rounder to move up. Or, Jazz could easily wind up with 3 firsts. There's going to be at least one contender looking to save money by trading out of the 1st round. Jazz, with their two picks in the 2nd would be a perfect trade partner.
 
Dunno if it already got posted, but anyways:

Reminds me of Tyreke Evans a lot.
 
I've taken a stand against him previously, but maybe he may be worth a gamble to be a good backup in the twenties. Even though I doubt it'll be the Jazz due to Neto and other PGs hitting the market.

Yea the scary thing is Evans is bigger and a better athlete. We'll see how far Smart's better attitude takes him.

A Calipari quote from yesterday that many will find controversial, I bet.

On style of play:
Now, we're not playing any pick-and-roll basketball right now. See, I think pick-and-roll basketball has set our game back. What happens is, 'cause you watch the NBA run pick-and-roll, what's every team from seventh grade on running right now? So do you get movement, do you get motion, do you get cutting, do you get screens? You get none of that. Two guys come down, and the other guys space out and you go pick-and-roll. Well, think about it. So we're not, right now, there is absolutely no pick-and-roll basketball when they play. You've got to create for your teammate, you've got to get it on a drive, set a screen for your man, run the court, create, cut hard, get a back-door, cut to the ball. You've got to learn to play basketball. So that's what we're doing right now.

I'm more posting this stuff because it's slow and semi-relevant to our next draft.. more so than it's some earth-shattering news...

On Julius Randle:
Oh geez. In his workouts, he's like, you know. And you know there are times where he wants to settle on the perimeter, be like a guard, but we were doing drills where he had to attack. He's a little -- he's got to get to his right hand more, 'cause you know how everybody's going to play him: Make him go right. They may even play him, and he can. But he's more comfortable getting to his left. But when he missed it, he was -- his head was right back on the rim until it went in. Like, oh my gosh. And then I tell the guys what happened two years ago was Michael dragged us to that level as a team, and that's what I'm asking Julius to do. 'Forget about everything else. Just do that right there and drag us. We'll help you with all the other stuff. You don't lose that.'

On James Young:
The thing that turned me on against James: I'm watching him and I always questioned, 'OK, is he rough enough?' On this team, you don't really have to be rough because you've got three guys that are pit bull dogs, three. OK? So that's pretty good on one team to have three guys like that. But I always said, I want to see. So he played a team that put a football player on him down (at Peach Jam) in Augusta, and I watched the whole game. And the guy beat the living crap out of him. He went inside, he wasn't afraid, he still scored and it didn't faze him. And the dude put him in as a football player to play him and try to beat him up, and he held his own. From that point I was sold. I'm like, 'OK, let's get this kid.' Cause that was my only question: when this stuff gets rough, what's he going to do? He didn't back away one bit.

On Willie Cauley-Stein's defense:
I know this, Willie can guard a bunch of positions. The thing with Willie that makes it nice in having a 6-5 point guard that weighs 220 pounds is that you can switch all pick-and-rolls. So all this pick-and-roll, high pick-and-roll, I only pick-and-roll, coach better try something different. That ain't working. Cause you just switch everything. When you have a 6-5, 220-pound point guard and your five man is Willie Cauley and can play the point how do you pick-and-roll? Like, he can guard your point and I can guard your five. Now, it's not like I'm starting a game that way, but in a pinch, the ball swings, we switch back, we may do it. We're not going to start that way, but there's things you can do and why Willie has a strength that makes us unique and different.
