    All he should be asked to do is try to get double technicals on the other team's best big so they both get ejected.

    Who are the top Cs in the G-League nowadays? Do we have to dump Quarterman to sign someone?

    I'm sure we can find someone better than Meyers in the G-league.

    We traded long time player in Plumlee? The dude didn't even play 2 seasons for us.

    Nurk needs to play smart....I'll say I liked seeing Meyers stand up to Adams..

    Jesus, Crabbe. You took two extra steps after the pump fake ended and still jumped past the guy.

    I wonder if the game plan is ever to "Go out there and get as big of a lead as you can before Meyers checks in"

    No one pays attention to us. Just show up and read the cards the league wants them to read, and then otherwise dump on us whenever possible.

    Wouldn't it be amazing if Ezeli got well and led us to the promised land?

    How can you be a PAC 12 Player Of The Year and be so useless at the same time?

    Nurkic makes his teammates better. He gives them more space to operate and he's been finding them with passes and playing unselfishly. His defense helps clean up their mistakes and his swagger gives the team an edge. I love it.

    Nurk is going to be special. I think we all can see it, right? This isn't a Vonleh situation. It's right in front of us.
