Man this is a downer of the thread. Here are a few reasons for optimism: 1. TJ Haws averaged was our second best player last year. He should take a leap forward with a full offseason of training. 2.Our other best returning player Childs was a freshman as well. He should take a major step forward. 3....

I think everyone is still burned by our inconsistent play from last year. With an optimistic outlook we have the following strengths: -Upperclassmen guards -Outside threats, driving threats and at least one inside threat -Big Man depth-we have the bodies to compete on the boards and defensively -Our...

I watched most of Mika's last game against Indiana's summer league team. Things Mika did well: -Made his free throws -Made a 20 foot jumper -Finished a play with a dunk -Played hard every minute he was on the floor -Pursued offensive boards hard -screens properly Things he did poorly: -Dropped so lo...

Seems like a reciprocal law should be enacted nationwide. Anyone that California or any other state bans is automatically banned by every other state.

Sort of a counter boycott.

He won't make the team. Mika is too soft for his position. When he goes up against physical centers in the NBA he will look worse than helpless. He should have stayed at BYU and enjoyed college and then went into a career, or Europe. I hope for the best for him, it is not fun to see this kind of th...

Less than a week to draft and I haven't heard a single rumor of Mika getting drafted. I hope his plan for not being drafted is pretty good.

I think most of us agree that Haws, Emery, Seljass and Bryant at going to get the bulk of the minutes at the 1,2 and 3. Also Childs is going to see all the minutes he can handle. Question number 1: Who is going to step up to take the starting big man spot? And what about the backup minutes? The cont...

Frank is going in the 1st round because he is a big strong guard who can guard PG's. He has the one on one perimeter ability that every NBA team needs. Where he played college ball was of minimal importance.

If I had Mika's ear I would be telling him that his best case scenario in the NBA would Udonis Haslem. That isn't a bad career, but that involves him developing a rock solid jumper and learning to take a lot of charges. Those are some big maybes. Simply put 6'10" guys with average length, big m...

I remember hearing he was a defensive coach.... so that could be good. I hope we scrap the 1-3-1.
