Pretty sure Webber wants nothing to do with Michigan, ban or no.  Think he is resentful of the way he was treated by the school post-scandal.

But he was at the final four with his gear on tho...so he's not totally distancing himself. He just wasn't with the other four at the game. Which sucks. 

And Jalen and the rest o f the Fab 5 along with the Michigan coach were begging Webber to show up for the Champiinship last year when Michigan played Louisville for the Championship. That bann that came off in May 2013 was a University dissociation only which by definition meant they couldn't associate with him, It didn't prevent him from attending that Championship game (if he'd wanted to) or participating in all things related to Michigan. It's kind of like me getting banned from the boxing thread(which I am lol) but not banned from this thread, but dudes automatically assuming I'm banned from NT as a whole when in actuality it's a ban, but a bann restricted to one thread not the whole "community". His ban was obviously restricted

 

[imsneakerpimp]

C Webb is the man though. He can do what he wants. They were straight up wrong for banning them dudes anyway, politics. I can understand him not wanting to credit Michigan with anything when they wiped his name from the record book for trying to eat

 

[sea manup]

@ Melo actually having people believe he wants to win.

I'm confident he'd be perfectly fine losing in the 2nd round every season

making the second round would be considered winning for melo

OKC vs Heat. 7 games


OKC champs

 

[Hahahaha]

Stephen A Smith just said Chris Paul could have played with the Bad Boys lmao

A few years ago, I actually thought he knew basketball. Now I don't know if he's just trying to troll like Skip or if he's just an imbecile.

why wouldn't cp3 be able to play back then?

all these players would be able to. don't confuse them whining and complaining to the refs as weakness. they do it because it benefits them. if they weren't getting touch fouls like they do now days, i guarantee you you'd see cp3, bron, blake be extremely physical and "dirty".

charge it to the game.

uhhhhh I agree with everything you said expect for blake. I think he is tissue and his defense would get exposed with all those bigs footwork.

he's soft, because that's how players are molded these days. they get in the refs pocket and benefit greatly from it. if the refs weren't giving them every single touch foul and treating them like demigods, they'd play differently.

lebron flops, because refs allow him to flop.
if the refs didn't call anything on the flops, and let defenders be extremely physical, you'd see him become extremely physical and mack truck to the rim every play, more so than he already does.

Scott Brooks said he doesn't care what the numbers say, Perkins will get big minutes. Lmao

it was more acceptable to believe in the earth being 6000 years old back then than it is now, he would be fine

blake would actually be more entertaining in the 80-90s, he wouldnt be on a team with cp3 so he would never learn how to flop

Congrats on the upset.


Gasol going to look like a Spanish Wilt.

that's how he gets down. Expect to see 30mpg for Butler and Fisher old ***** too. I still got us in 5, maybe 6 if Lee/Miller/Conley has an unconscious from the perimeter game. Thunder's defense is infamous for over helping to clog the lane and giving up 3s. Luckily for us the Grizzlies are 19th in % and dead last in attempts) so y'all can have those. Tayshaun Prince shoots a worst ts% than Kendrick Perkins

I understand that I just think Blake as a person is soft. I mean why wouldnt players do things to give you the advantage in balling. I think its because Blake pick and choose his battles. But after a few season in the old days Blake would stop being tissue and become a doughnut.
