LMR a Laker?!

norcald503 — Fri, 04 Jul 2008 17:59:33 -0000

I happened to be on Facebook a few minutes ago, and there was a status update from LMR on the right hand column (timed about 40 minutes ago) that read, in relevant part: "Oh yea I'm about to be a LAKER!!!" I know a lot of people on BN would love for LMR to be a Laker, so if you have any information, pass it along. http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=2517844

The team and the city reached a 75 million dollar settlement. I wonder if the name will remain the same. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/basketball/nba/07/02/supersonics.seattle.ap/index.html

CopyCats

BruinsRUs — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 07:42:44 -0000

AU's 2009 recruiting class is coming to life and I can't help but notice what the CopyCats are trying to do. It is obvious that UCLA has become "the standard" and Lute is trying to counter what he will be facing. With Lute's newest recruit, Mike Moser, signing yesterday, it will be interesting to see Moser/Smith vs. Nelson/Lane http://scouthoops.scout.com/a.z?s=75&p=9&c=8&toinid=550&yr=2009

Baron Davis opts out - Looking to the Clippers

Ah, Baron making a perfectly logical move to find a team that will sign him to a long-term contract, in light of the Warriors dragging on negotiations.

Similar to Washington, the Bruins don't have any easy games. Opening against Tennessee will be tough, as will a road trip to BYU. Fresno State sounds more manageable since the Bruins are 6-1 all-time against the Bulldogs. Then again, a lot of people are touting Fresno as a top-25 team this year.

What they are saying in Milwaukee about Mbah a Moute: Scott Skiles
Achilles — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 03:43:56 -0000

What they are saying in Milwaukee about Mbah a Moute: Scott Skiles, Milwaukee Bucks head coach, as quoted in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel: "He's from a winning program, he's got great length, he can guard two or three different positions. He's kind of an improving offensive player, and I think he'll still improve, and another high-quality person. Especially at that pick; that's an important thing to have right there." *John Hammond, Bucks' general manager told the Journal Sentinel: "Energy, toughness, defender, role player. Kind of a guy that will do whatever it takes to win. Rock-solid person. Feel good about having him here. You never know, but sometimes guys like that find a way to get on the court and play. Not saying that he's going to play, but you never know." OrlandoSentinel.com

Q: On what Tim Floyd had to say about Love: Hoiberg: " He thought the world of Kevin. He coached against him this year and felt it was tough to game-plan against him because he does so many things with his ability to spread the floor and rebound. Opponents always have to have two guys sprint back because of his outlet passes. I played for Tuim at Iowa State the Bulls for a year and a half. He really liked OJ Mayo's competitive nature and his ability to play at this level. For us, it was a tough decision. He brings a lot of things to the table. But in the end, we felt that Kevin does just as many of things. He brings the intangibles that not very many players in this league can. Tim said putting a game-plan against Kevin Love was always very difficult. When they played UCLA, he was the guy you had to key around." Link to KL interview / press conference
