It is not scheduled to be on TV in Canada.

Duke versus Washington is the only game on CBS this weekend.

I'll be able to watch it on ESPN. Looking forward to that, and the game before it... Kansas v. Ohio St.

TSN 2 and the Score appears to be picking up some NCAA games from ESPN right now, but they do not appear to have it tomorrow.

I'm not sold on Lamb. Can't deny the talent is there. And no, I don't think he's a 1 or 3. He's a 2 guard.

Agree. We don't need a 2 guard. Lamb is indeed a talent, I won't be surprised if he's drafted in top 5 by teams like Cavs, Detroit and Charlotte. They need a good talented guard.

Though, this draft is crazy, it has talent in all 3 positions: PF (Drummond/Davis/Sullinger/Jones, SF (Barnes/Miller/Gilchrist) and SG (Lamb/Beal/River). Damn it's a good year to be bad. We need to tank with passion.

2 guard or not, the talent is undeniable.

Bayless
Dd
Lamb

You could just make it work. The makeup of the raps demands playmaking ability. Lamb is a guy that can come in and produce. Star 2s arent exactly growing on trees these days.
Ball skills tend to win out.

I agree with Dagger a few pages back I mentioned Adonis Thomas and Barton. I think that guys came be a pretty decent player a sleeper pick.
Dagger his brother is a point gaurd on that team also, Anthony Barton. but Will does bring up the ball often

Drummond looks like he is slowly picking things up... Davis Drummond then the rest

LOL i think you've mistaken my post for daggers. He just asked if anyone read up on Will, i mentioned Adonis and Will bringing up the ball. Regardless thanks for the insight.

haha sorry. Yeah I have been following Thomas this year. Looks solid needs to work on his stroke a bit but I think he can be a very good player...Probably needs one more year of NCAA.

I think his stroke is alright for a prospect, its more his ball handling ability and experience attacking a teams defense that needs refinement.

This game has looked ugly so far. Wroten's been carrying Washington, with 9 pts (3/3FG, 1/1 3PT, 2/4FT) so far.
