isiah tries to kill himself then blames it on his daughter.
There is going to be an on court, trophy raising celebration in Orlando tonight.
DJ Mbenga. Champion.
Damn Orlando. Way to make game 5 exciting.
Congratulations, Lakers fans. I would've rather seen the championship go to any team, ANY TEAM, other than the Lakers, but it is what it is. Kobe finally got his Shaq-less ring. Phil finally passed Auerbach. Enjoy it.
i'm still hoping they trade the pick... they have a glutton of power forwards.
"I'm not your prototypical NBA power forawrd, so it really didn't have anything to do with the development of my game," Harangody said. "It's just how they view me and the kind of stigma of me being undersized for the NBA."
NBA scouts tend to pigen hold potential first round prospects by weights and measures these days, despite their body of work, which may be why Harangody was ranked as low as the 19th best power forward by some scouting services.
"It was hard to come to terms with that," Harangody admitted. "You play, you go on the road, and all these NBA workouts, you've played against all these guys in the Big East, in tournaments, and you put up numbers against them and you have to prove all over again because they're the guys with potential, they're the guys with athleticism and wingspan."
"I liked being in that positon again. I haven't been in that position in a while where I have to prove myself. It was a challenge and I realized going into next year it's going to be the same thing.
"I think it's going to make me a better player."
i said a glutton of power forwards, not a gluttonous power forward.
by the way... i think it's fair to note that in today's basketball world a player like charles barkley would likely be a late 1st round pick if not a 2nd round pick due to his weight and lack of height.
6'6" my ass... he's 6'4" tops, if not 6'3"
nobody would take a 6'3" power forward that early in today's world... we'd have jay bilas talking about how he needs to change his game to succeed at the next level, and about his lack of tremendous upside potential.
larry bird might slip too for his lack of athleticism and "length"
Bilas would NOT be impressed with Barkley's wingspan.
