I sometimes criticize Obama. I used to criticize Bush occasionally. I often quibble with the doings of my representatives in Congress.

Therefore, using the DJO Hater Rule, I am un-American.

You are totally not a real Marquette fan...I bet you were the same one saying the Jimmy and Lazar wouldnt get draft in the first round too huh?
Ha ha, funny sarcasm.  Got a couple people...

I hope DJO is reading these comments from you "Marquette fans"...smh
Oh my goodness that wasn't sarcasm!?!  I am amazed.

Why can't we all just get along?

We could solve the whole problem if we just follow along with the military.

Stop the draft!

The NBA should be all volunteer!

DJO has very freakish twisting athleticism and a good touch. 

Despite all the craziness in this thread, this part of your post reminded me of the ESPN sports science video they did on DJO.  For those that didn't watch it, pretty cool...

MU 82 very respectfully feels that DJO won't be an NBA player (I think he's probably right). One (1) poster that I know of (GOMU85) claims (I certainly hope with sarcasm) that this means 82 is not a true Marquette fan. Please don't mistakenly use this to jump  on your soapbox again (and again and again and again) to rail against the injustices heaped on those whose opinions don't toe the party line. No even semi reasonable person is prevented from expressing his or her opinion here. Now, if 82 said he didn't think DJO would make the NBA because he was a low BBall IQ good for nothin Juco choker who peed all over himself, some here might take offense. If that conflcts with your concept of fair play so be it.


If you read the other thread, some people were stooping to the point of calling someone less than a human being for having the nutsack to say Vander is good at times, not great.  No, GOMU85 is not using sarcasm.

My personal opinion is that DJO does make the NBA as a second round pick.

Quote from: Lennys TapYou may be right, but if he feels that way he's the only guy here on that wacky island. Given Hoop's predeliction for defending the outrageous, he should be defending GOMU85 for his unpopular opinion.

Examples of the outrageous things I'm defending?

Nothing is as clever as your avatar  .   Is that a bad image of Buzz?  Are you attempting to make fun of our coach?  If so, why?  Good guy, good coach, represents MU well.

BURN!!!!

As I'm sure you know, I'm a huge Buzz supporter - the avatar is my homage to the greatest pre-NCAA tourney press conference of all time.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQK_55CjPj8

At the 3:15 mark, he tells the TMJ4 reporter who hadn't covered MU all season up until they made the tournament "you're last." Guy laughs awkwardly, Buzz proceeds to ignore him as promised.

At the 7:45 mark, the TMJ4 reporter asks, "is everybody done now?" Buzz responds, "good, I'mma go ahead and eat my cookie." Reporter awkwardly laughs again, and Buzz goes, "which camera is yours?" then looks dead into the camera and chews his cookie with the most heinous face possible.

At the 9:55 mark, the TMJ reporter gets it yet again when he tries to weasel his way out of looking like a fool.  He asked, "It seems like you guys always play well... because I watch all of the games on television even though I'm not here."  Buzz interrupts him with "That's a hell of a job.  You work for the media and you show up on the last media availability potentially, AND you watch the games on channel 32."  The tool reporter can't even help but laugh because he knows he deserves it.

It was an incredible f*ck you to all the season-long doubters (such as yourself) that ripped the team mercilessly all year long.  It was also one of the funniest things I've ever seen a college coach do.  Just one of the many reasons I think he's the perfect coach for MU.  Ton of personality.

This video still leaves me speechless.  Does that reporter still have a job???  He got torched!

Check out the top scoring list at MU and remove all the four-year players ahead of him.   DJO is in the top ten of that group.

That video is awesome.   My favorite is still the 15 minute monologue that left so many media types speechless last year.

The best part about it was when he had the three JUCO stars next to him on the podium and said (paraphrasing), "We took the road less traveled.  Robert Frost."  Cracked sidewalks indeed.

DJO is the 19th leading scorer in Marquette history.

Of the 18 ranked ahead of him: 12 played either little or not at all in the NBA (McNeal, James, Lee, Diener, Wardle, Smith, Ellis, Key, Powell, Wolf, Eford, Hutchins); 2 are in the NBA now but getting little playing time (Hayward, Novak); 1 is an NBA starter making good money (Matthews); and 3 had nice NBA careers (Thompson, Meminger, Kojis).

Obviously, scoring lots of points at Marquette guarantees neither being drafted in the first round nor having an NBA career.

DJO has had a nice run at Marquette. He deserves credit for helping the Buzz Williams era really pick up steam following the departure of Matthews, McNeal and James.

If he simply keeps doing what he's been doing -- being a very good college basketball player but not a star -- it will continue to help the team but won't really impress NBA scouts due to his size and other limitations.

The good news for DJO (and Marquette fans) is that he still has a chance to write one hell of a final college chapter.

If he has a great finish to the regular season, if he leads us deep into the Big East tourney and, mostly, if he lights it up from 3-point range during a long NCAA tourney run, DJO would really open some scouts' eyes.

Although I have my doubts, I certainly am rooting for him to do just that.

Initially you came on the scene as a defender of all things Chicos, so much so that people thought you to be him. That put you at the other end of the spectrum from GOMU85 on all things Marquette - as outrageously negative as he is outrageously positive.

Lately you seem more balanced. Good for you.

I can't remember ever seeing that video before. Good stuff!

As for DJO...I love the guy. He has represented Marquette well and is a hell of a college basketball player. I certainly hope that he gets drafted (I still say mid to late 2nd round), but to label anyone a "Marquette hater" or challenge their fandom based on their opinions of his NBA chances is ridiculous and childish. And maybe not hearing your name called on draft night is a good thing. Wes wasn't drafted and it's worked out well for him in Utah and it paid off for him in Portland. Lazar and Jimmy were 1st round draft picks and can't get off the bench for their respective teams unless it's garbage time.
