    MAYBE!!!

    Here is another possibility. Smart lied to his coach to try and excuse he douchey behavior, and when no one around the fan confirmed it, he had to apologize for not only lying, but also for shoving a fan. I think Smart should be suspended for the rest of the season, but whatever.

    Your posts are so ridiculous.

    Smart still not owning up for his actions. What an asshole.

    I can tell why he's playing at Okie State. I'm not sure the guy can even read.

    Maybe he just heard it in his head and he thought the fan was of the devil

    People are so dismissive of marcus smart theories these days, let your mind wander and the truth will reveal itself

    It's absolutely hilarious that you'll call my posts ridiculous when you're freaking out for so reason. You're such a loon.

    Smart has backed off his claim of being called the n-word. No fans around Orr corroborate the story. Whoops...

    Why was Andrew Wiggins considered the next LeBron?

    He's a string bean who reminds me of Tayshaun Prince. :dunno:

    What a crapshoot, huh? I think Parker is probably the best player, but he's not a LeBron James. Other than that, Embiid seems to be ideal and the closest thing to the next Anthony Davis.

    Wiggins, I just don't know what to thing about him at this point. He's not an NBA franchise player after this season, so he won't go #1.

    This is the Embiid draft.

    His upside trumps Parker and Wiggins.

    I don't know if there's anyone on this site like myself who's old enough to remember Bill Russell but I just wanted to take a minute to wish him a very happy 80th birthday. In a day when players act way over the top on every dunk or a block shot. Russell like other players in his day just went about doing there job with class professionalism & dignity.

    In a recent interview the man who basically invented the art of the blocked shot. couldn't understand the excitement a player shows when someone blocks a shot 3 rows into the stands. Says Russell, "what did he actually accomplish? the other team STILL has the ball with a chance to score." He continued, "If you're going to block a shot #1 keep the ball on the court so if nothing else YOUR team has a chance to recover it. Or if possible block the shot toward one of your own players." And on the over excitement of dunks he added, " He did what he's being paid to do, he scored points, instead of screaming & pounding your chest, act like you've done it before, get your rear-end back up court & play some defense now."

    Happy birthday Bill & thanks for the education.

    Jabari Parker is beasting against Syracuse. Looks like the clear #2 pick, if not #1.

    Duck has the ball up 1 with 25 seconds left. 1-and-1 for Duke.

    Boeheim with a complete meltdown and gets thrown out of the game with 10 seconds left. Way to lose the game for your team, idiot.

    Wiggins goes 5-14 tonight against Oklahoma with 5 rebounds, 0 assists, and 0 steals, and ESPN is fawning over him because Kansas beat OU.

    I still don't understand the Wiggins hype. He seems like the guy who was awesome younger, and then his peers started growing and even got more physically mature than him. I'm not sure I'd spend the #3 pick on him.

    I've gotta agree, I just don't see it either. I mean he'll probably go top 5 & that's not even a guarantee anymore.

    Thoughts on McDermott?

    He's a smart player. Finds crafty ways to score. I'm not sure he'll be more than a end of the rotation player in the NBA, though.
