    I have actually watched every Gonzaga home game over the last 3 years and and a majority of the away games in the same span. Try again. Glad you think you're so smart.

    It would appear I am more educated than you in this discussion. And the scouting report I referenced was the actual words of a compilation of "pro" scouts. You know, who do this for a living, and I'm the uneducated one?

    Tell me how Kelly's ass tastes buddy, you should know, you're so far up it.

    What's next, you going to say how he is some defensive juggernaut?

    Ever hear of a "student"?

    Of course not, because your mental capacity is rather minimal, from which I can ascertain from this conversation.

    You don't go to Gonzaga. You don't gotta lie to kick it.

    Once again, you're wrong. Talk about being uneducated.

    FWIW, I actually do go there.

    He doesn't have to love every Gonzaga player just because he goes to Gonzaga. Did you go to Gonzaga?

    Zags is not currently affiliated with any college. He might rep the PCC Panthers though, not sure.

    I've been to Gonzaga, pretty close. In 1969 I used the Hwy 395 route from California to Canada.

    I just looked up Gonzaga in Bing maps and it showed the city of Gonzaga, Brazil. My father was once stationed in Natal, a thousand miles away. So that counts for something.

    LOL, 10 pages on a guy who IMO deserves a few paragraphs, too many people here with too much time?

    Does anyone remember Frank Oleynick, the Sonic 1st-round pick from Seattle University? He was a washout, very similar to Bo Kimble a decade later.

    Because I have to love every player on every team I watch, right?

    Side note: Just because I go there, doesn't make me a huge 'fan' of their team. Like my name says, I'm an Oregon and Nebraska fan. I chose Gonzaga for reasons that are unrelated to sports and honestly are not relevant to this conversation. I do watch/attend games because that is the "social" thing to do, you know, hang out with some other students, watch a game, have fun.

    I'm sure you've loved every player over your lifetime, right?

    I didn't like Qyntel Woods, Travis Outlaw, Luke Babbitt, Brandon Roy, Greg Oden, Ruben Patterson - to name a few, but that doesn't mean I don't recognize their skill in basketball.

    Hard to not like the #2 team in the Nation. That would go doubly for if you went to school there I would imagine. Team has really impressed this year.

    His quick-leap is sad (like Slavko) but his lateral movement is solid. So much like Scola in this area.

    But lets take a look at his stats that has made him a late-1st into (possibly) cracking the top-10:

    17.7 PPG | 7.0 RPG | 1.2 BPG
    80 FT% | 66 FG% | 25 MPG
    38 PER | 71 TS% | 7.4 WS (superior advanced stats than Lillard's last year at Weber State)
    Ganzaga ranked #2

    You attend a school that's #1 in the nation (after Indiana's loss tonight) and you think the best player on that team is hot garbage. It just doesn't add up. I don't believe you.
