Following potential 2012 draftees

Just hopped back into this thread after a few days off. Random thoughts from catching up:
-Jeremy Lamb's team not only underperformed this season without Kemba, but the U19 USA team also underperformed to the tune of a 5th place finish with him as team leader/scorer. So the idea that he "just plays winning basketball" is sorta shot in the *** there. He's like Monta Ellis in that he will prob score in the league but will likely take almost as many shots as points scored, and will always be on mediocre to bad teams his whole career if he's one of the center pieces.
-Bummed 'Bazz went UCLA. Worst place for him. Would have loved to see Rice coach him at UNLV, or at least UK over Howland and UCLA.
-St George in the summer? Are you a masochist? (maybe we'll golf....I have friends with a VaCa home down there.)

Agree with your first two points, Bodhi. As for golfing in the summer, that's crazy talk! I'm more of an archaeologist/adventure/explore the AZ strip kinda guy. Used to golf about 300 holes per week, then lost interest. At the risk of sounding weird, I'm now a treasure hunter .. I used to be neighbors (in the Florida Keys) with Mel Fisher and he invited me, several times, to dive on the Atocha and I've been hooked ever since. There's some Spanish treasure out this way .. I've found some stuff but nothing major yet. Did find a big one in Mexico, though, in the southern part of the state of Chihuahua. Happy to take people out on these excursions .. as I'm not doing it for the money (thankfully).
6am St George tee times, 4-5 times a summer, are sorta my guilty pleasure. So maybe I'm the masochist...
Umm, sure.............cool.............treasure hunting, not.......umm, weird..........AT ALL! I'll have to dust off my extensive khaki and bandana collection and come join you. (There will be monkey brains, rope swings and Nazi's chasing us......right?)
Been shot at more than once .. but never in Utah. MX and Indiana .. they shoot you.
Dear lord.
No worries you can stay safely at home while we go out and experience life and the world.
Wasn't insulting it, just picturing the ridiculousness of people on Jazzfanz getting shot at while treasure hunting.
