    Could we at least get @KingSpeed to come out and sing the national anthem before each of the team's games?

    No, I mean seriously. How incredible would that be to have a celebrity performer accompany our squad?

    I have no idea. I haven't heard them say anything about it. Nigel and Dan both begged out last year, so I'd be shocked if either plays this time. I'd bet that their new producer (John Warner, son of former Seahawk running back Curt) is part of their squad though.

    Maybe not if he was hired after the date to submit rosters.

    He'd been at the station for quite a while though, having filled in for Kirk several times in the past. I imagine they'd known for several weeks that he'd be joining the show full time.

    The players will make the decisions out there, but as coach I'm going to encourage lots of high P&R/P, with the screener cutting to the basket and the roller/popper playing the option of shoot/pass to the cutter or getting open looks at the rim.

    Baseline screens to try and free up shots from the corner. Lots of picks, fundamentals, make the simple stuff look exceptional.

    We are going to win the media division!

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I'm putting my money on Canzano's team.

    He seems like the type who wouldn't shower that day or the day before and wouldn't use deodorant, just to make guarding him unpleasant. He'll do whatever he has to. Mark my words.

    You disagree with my reasoning?
