NBA discussion (Broken off from D. Thomas recruiting thread)

Ok he did not dunk on Shabazz. Bazz was standing there but wasn't defending the shot. It was a little silly that XJ even acknowledged him.

The Rivers dunk... barely got over the rim, kind of threw it at the rim more than an actual dunk, but Rivers did challenge the shot. I wouldn't buy the poster. You can go watch the vids. They weren't impressive.

And the asinine post of the week goes to...Medford M. J-R-K has a brother?

XJ is farther along in his freshman year than the Mayor was at this point during his. The Mayor is a Sophomore that is a borderline first round draft pick, figuring XJ makes even a modest improvement next year ( most likely w/out Dre stealing boards and Spencer stealing possessions) I'm not sure how he isn't a borderline first rounder next year.

The following guys were on the all freshman team, who do you pick for the higher upside in 3 years on this list that XJ? I say nobody is close outside of Shabazz. I'll go there, XJ's upside is > that Scott's.

Kyle Anderson	UCLA
Jahii Carson	ASU
Damyean Dotson	ORE
Shabazz Muhammad	UCLA
Josh Scott	COLO

Some people take anti homerism too far

LOL. No not the real guy. Just a fan of the slowest safety in history.

Ha. Didn't he have an int return that last four days once?

I'm sorry, but someone who is built like a defensive end and can move like XJ has freak athleticism. I'm not even sure how we're debating this, other than the fact that we're going stir crazy waiting for today's game.

His return in the Big XII title game was so slow, Mike Williams and Cedric Benson were so mesmerized they ran right into each other.
