Once MKG goes all Scottie Pippen nutzoid, Biz becomes the Dream, Kemba is Zeke and Hendo is Kobe Jr you are SCREWED in your seats.

House will be full and your beautifully secluded season seats will be arse deep with wannabe fans and their snot faced, disrespectful, uninterested, chair kicking nut goo.

ironically, all but one game i went to last year had someone sitting directly next to me on the left. that was really annoying. i want a 5 seat buffer in all directions. maybe once i hit the lottery i can buy all the seats around me and burn the tickets.

If we ever get the chance to actually hang out I am going to be all Judge Reinhold in that close talking Seinfeld episode on you.

Just because it would be hilarious to me.

You know if you were in the middle and Felton was sitting in the furthest seat to the left ad May was sitting in the furthest seat to your right and there were just you three in the entire section you would STILL feel crowded?

on the same row? ugh. so when i have to go to the bathroom i have to climb up or down a row or, god forbid, ask their fat asses to stand up so i can get by. how about we put me on the end of the row and make fatty 1 and 2 sit in the middle. can we do that instead. that would make me fee better. ok thanks.

BTW: What that hell is it with that UNC championship team? Has there ever been fewer riches from a college title team (looking at you and guys like SWeed to weigh in)?

Felton: A Fat, underwhelming journeyman.
McCants: Is he even still alive?
Williams: Massive let down
May: Fat

It's staggering how NONE of them panned out - isn't it?

The only one from that game that turned into a star is Williams. I'd say Felton has lived up to what you expect in his draft range. May and Marvin are obvious disappointments, I think McCants would have been fine if he hadn't been such a bonehead. Teams aren't as tolerable of that anymore. Just look at Al Thornton being out of the league this year.

James Augustine is tearing it up overseas, I wonder why he hasn't got an NBA camp invite. Maybe he enjoys playing overseas.

I remember that game vividly. It was my last as a Tarhole fan before attending NC State. After that game I never in a thousand years would have guessed Deron Williams would be the player he is today. He just seemed so slow and nonathletic compared to all the UNC players.

Darth Bane.. excuse me Bane from Batman reminds of me a more Evil Darth Vader, such a well written character from Dark Knight

said Wiggins, a 6-foot-8 small forward who is the nation’s No.1 overall junior.

Isn't that sentence a bit misleading? Wiggins is a Canadian, right?

I mean it's no different than:

Tristan Thompson (Canada... played ball in Maryland)
Enes Kanter (Turkey... California)
Myck Kabongo (Canada... Nevada)
Khem Birch (Canada... Maryland)
Steven Adams (New Zealand... Maryland)
Anthony Bennett (Canada... Nevada)

RIP Sherman Hemsley. Man, all those years growing up and watching George Jefferson rant and rave. He was hilarious!
