    i love it, but i can definitely see why others wouldn't like it.

    i think his commentary style is either love it or hate it. in other words, it's pretty polarizing and there's (probably) not much middle ground.

    mark cuban still hasn't gotten over that de-andre jordan ordeal that happened in the off-season where it looked like he was gonna sign with the mavs and then he changed his mind and stayed with the clippers

    You're on your A game today Timmy...

    Anyways for the draft followers there is a couple games on ESPN U tonight. Brandon Ingram(consensus top 5 pick in most mocks) for Duke at 7 ET and then Ben Simmons at 9 ET.

    I'm not gonna bother with the College Basketball thread because it's been s--- since the RB days.

    As an Australian I can say I'm really excited about Ben Simmons! He had an impressive debut for LSU as well.

    Our national team is looking good for the future. Got another prospect called Thon Maker but a lot of people have mixed opinions on him.

    Don't forget we also have Deng Adel, Jonah Bolden and Isaac Humphries coming through the ranks. Our basketball stocks look great for the future.

    Also here are the highlights to Ben's debut for LSU.

    Don't forget about Exum either.

    Bad news for D Rose. Hoiberg came out and said he may have double vision until the all star break.
    http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/14137034/derrick-rose-chicago-bulls-dealing-blurry-vision

    "[The doctors] said it could be as long as three months," Hoiberg said. "But [the vision] has continued to improve, and that's obviously a positive."

    "This is my first time hearing about it," Rose said of the possible three-month timeline. "But you kind of have that hope in your mind that it gets well a lot quicker. But for this to be seven or eight [weeks] out and still the same way, I can't do nothing but live with it. Get the most out of every day, keep putting my deposits in and keep working on my game until my eye gets better.

    "But I'm loving the way that I'm working out, I'm loving the way that we're playing. We're winning games, so that's the only thing that I'm worried about. Everything else will come."

    "I'm playing with both of them open now," Rose said. "But [my vision] is still blurry when I look certain ways. But that's part of [the recovery], I guess."

    Rose acknowledged being a little frustrated during games because of the ongoing issues, but he didn't want to use that as an excuse.

    "I'm missing a lot of shots where I normally hit," Rose said. "Floaters or layups I normally hit, but everything else will come. Just getting my legs under me. It's still preseason for me. ... I'm still warming up."

    "All of it is going to come," Rose said. "It's all about putting your game back together, too. It's the first time I had surgery on my face, so that's something different. The depth perception of the rim is a little bit thrown off, so I'm dealing with that. It's all going to come to me."

    Nice battle between Smart and Westbrook last night.



    Celtics in Houston tonight, they always seem to lose the games you think they should win and win the games you expect them to lose.

    Bulls beat the Pacers 96-95. JB with the block on Paul George's game winner attempt.

    Rose with a solid 23-6 on 50% FG. Tweaked his ankle near the end but looks like he's on track to play wednesday.

    Kentucky vs Duke tonight at 7 ET on ESPN.

    Scal Labissiere is the consensus #2 pick in the draft, seen one of the big mock sites(draft express)have him ahead of Simmons. Also playing on the game are #4(Brandon Ingram) and #6(Jamal Murray). Those ranking are from Chad Ford's Top 100.
