Luke Fischer

[We R Final Four]

Apologies if this has been brought up on these boards before but...

A week ago, if a "trade" was offered where MU would get Luke Fischer in exchange for Burton and Dawson, who would have taken it?

No one......I hope.

I agree with Mac last night.  Luke is going to be good enough to require him to be double teamed in many games.  He an excellent passer so our guards better get ready to fire up uncontested shots.  Unfortunately Jake never had this type of opportunity.  Get ready Carlino, JJJ and Duane!

Peace on Ners; DeWil toward men.

Holy Shiite militia, batman, that's good satire.  Wish I had thought of that.

Timely, witty, relevant, funny, poking fun at Ners.  That's a five-tool post right there.  We haven't seen something like that on Scoop in years.

How long were you saving this one?

How long were you saving this one?

Now now. Ners doesn't get special treatment. I have about a half dozen banhammer gifs that I use whenever the mods drop the banhammer on anybody

Except that's not even close to the real scenario at hand.

We were getting Fischer back regardless, so the scenario of having Fischer with Burton (and Dawson) was much preferred to having Fischer sans Burton (and Dawson) leaving us with 8 available scholarship players.

Fischer entering the line up has nothing to do with the recent transfers.  He would've made his contributions regardless.

I never said that it was close to the real scenario at hand. It obviously would be better to have all of them and no one said that Fischer's return had anything to do with the transfers.

The point that you clearly missed was that, if given the hypothetical choice between Fischer or Burton/Dawson, it would be a no-brainer to choose Fischer. He's a much more valuable player to this team. Clearly I didn't think that posters would take it so seriously.

How do you know he didn't learn all those skills from Crean?

I am sure that is what Tanned Tommy was telling everyone at the bar last night as he was crying in his beer.

Crying? There is no crying in basketball. Now beer, that's a different story.
