lol guy, I'll beat you in either. 3 point shooting contest and/or pb singles. You're way younger than me, but happy to bet $$ on either. Don't talk about it, be about it.

No kidding you'd beat me at pickleball. I'm about 35 years away from even considering playing pickleball.

I'll give you great odds, my boy. Too difficult to figure out quickly?  Should be ez money, hey? 

OK then fruity boy, how about a 3 point shooting contest for cash?

Yawn. I don't need a retired man's money.

Maybe 2026 you'll realize homophobic jokes aren't funny. Especially from a retired single dude.

There are plenty here.

Not sure anyone is celebrating it.  Many are pointing out the negative points of starting him over more deserving player(s). 

But if you want to detract from the conversation about how this team could play at their best (not saying it would mean much more success other than scratching out a couple more wins vs the likes of Oklahoma, Dayton, Maryland etc.) and call people POS that is the way to do it. 

Acting above the fray but stooping so low is not moral high ground.  But sadly, this goes on, as the name caller said, during the winning seasons as well.

You saved me some time with this reply so I'll shift gears a bit. Despite Clark's offensive game resembling Hamilton, I'd like to see their minutes split for a few games, since Clark at the very least offers enough length on defense to block shots.

rim run Clark for some lobs. Maestro Shaka, nope. Let's go with Hamilton. He has good footwork.

Ben is a good kid. As is Chase. Both seemed a lot happier when they were lower in the pecking order. "Stars in their role" if you will. RGV calls for incremental role elevation every year, but sometimes a guy just fits his role and is happy to just stay in it. And that's ok.

This is a cause of some of this year's problems.  Last year's core of Kam, Jop and Mitchell played together for three years, then you add Kolek and Oso for the two years before that. All consumed huge minutes.  Not a lot of room then to expand your role if you are a senior or junior today.

So today you have a scenario where we find that yesterday's role players are not star players.
