I’m going to take a long break from this board. The more I read from DAT and Devada the more pissed off I get. They should be dropped off in WNC and see what they think then. Piss off, I’m done.
Hey, don't worry. When @Another#1Dukie , @Mac9192 , @KDSTONE , @GhostOf301 , and other conservatives here mock you for your feelings, I won't join in.

Mad respect, yo. Good boundaries. ✊

So the actual people there are liars and your fact checkers are telling the truth. Gotya.
I doubt they're liars. I also doubt people going through this first-hand are offering up much more than their individual, personal, anecdotal experience, which is valid, but contextualized. It's people like you who are likely the liars for turning it into a sweeping generalization for political manipulation. I know you're not holding your own puppet strings, so perhaps it's harsh of me to call you, personally, the likely liar. Mea culpa.

Why do we think FEMA is shutting down the airspace for private helicopters? There hasn't been a single incident, so no real reason to. The private helicopters have delivered the vast majority of aid to people who are stranded. They're also turning volunteers around on the ground and telling them if they want to help, to donate to FEMA. According to actual people on the ground.
Dunno. That sounds really stupid.

Source? I mean, I know you said "people on the ground," but you aren't there, so how did you find out? You know, what we normally mean when we talk about sources.

Count down thoughts?

why show all your cards at a scrimmage meant to be nothing but a glorified pick up game?
The game against ASU will really show some of what we’ve been hearing about this team.

Really don’t need a post game if this team flys up the court like they were doing . The uptempo style we’ve been looking for the last two seasons , this team has it . One to three passes and we’re at the offensive basket .

IF the bench can truly keep up with productivity when subbed in on both offense and defense . How many teams in the NCAA can really stay fresh. The bench is key with this team .

Any news on getting tix for that ASU game

Good summaries guys.

I was disappointed that Maluach was used only in PNRs and no post ups. I guess he doesn't have a post up game at this point. I think that takes away his length advantage but I guess they want him rolling to the basket a lot.

Gillis looks to be more of a 3 and D guy and he will get PT because of his experience and toughness. Knoeppel has talent but at one point either Evans or Foster blew right past him. There will be times when he's over matched on defense.

I like Foster and Proctor playing together especially since they seem to be good friends. Having 2 point guards to push the ball up court will be a benefit. Sion will get lots of PT as the main guard off the bench. I could see a 25/25/25 breakdown of minutes with Evans getting some time also at the guard spot.

Frankly I haven't seen Cooper as a dominant player yet, more of a do everything guy like Battier which of course is a wonderful thing if that is what he can do.

Brown is very solid but definitely plays below the rim. I hope Ngongba is able to play eventually.

I'm sure they'll look a lot different in a few weeks.

Just watched the highlights. Foster looked really good, much better than Proctor to be honest. No way Foster comes off the bench if he has made the leap which he appears to have done. We shot well but seem 3 happy. We don't seem to have much of a post up game but have some good slashers. Mal is bigger and better than I thought; definitely the rim protector we lacked last year. Sion seems ahead of Gillis; he is much more aggressive. Sion definitely has some DeMarcus Nelson to his game and is a good finisher. Gillis is solid and a pure role player in a quiet way. Evans and Kon impressed and seem to bring different things to the table. Evans reminded of Mitchell when he was playing well with his athletic slashing but seems to be a better shooter. Kon has a nice shot but does seem a bit slow. Cooper is smooth; he has a game that reminded me of a more athletic Dunleavy. Brown is solid; seems happy doing the dirty work. Harris is more than a shooter; he will be a good one down the road. Cooper and Foster looked like NBA guys to me. Mal could probably use 2 years but the scouts like his length and upside. Proctor played good D and made some nice passes.
I watched the entire thing from start to finish . I don’t think there was any push on offense from the staff . I think the focus was on defense. Really didn’t see offensive sets being ran . I also agree the three’s were definitely being shot . Even Mal shot one .

Don’t stay gone too long 91. They wouldn’t care about the folks in WNC. They’re the deplorables. The Left has been taught to hate. Whatever they accuse us of is what they’re guilty of.

You're misusing that adage. It doesn't mean you get to make up a thousand-word story pushing your agenda.

Do you know anything about the source of those pictures? You don't even care because their only purpose is a springboard for you to push your bigotry.
Do you have any idea how obnoxious you are? You’re probably the school laughing stock, the one the other teachers make fun of in the teachers’ lounge
