So an update on my BIL. He was able to eat breakfast on his own today and kept his oxygen up while doing PT. For context they are about 30 yrs old. My sister and BIL live in Salt Lake City. So really far from family. I was worried about my sister dealing with this alone, but as of now things are looking positive. Appreciate the prayers and support. Prognosis right now is looking good but probably going to be a long recovery.7 points

I mean two 5 stars, a top 40 kid and a complete reach by the IU staff as the top performers. Who would have thought?5 points

I'd even eye the Pistons for him at some point. I know they need to give a coach time with Cade Cunningham just getting drafted and all of the young talent they have, but Dwane Casey has been there 3 years and each has gotten worse record-wise. If they're terrible again, I could definitely see them moving on after 4 years and Howard being interested with a potential superstar in Cunningham as well as Saddiq Bay and Killian Hayes being exciting young players, and the job not being a big move with his kids at Michigan.3 points

Worked with an office manager, she actually loved her man, they ended up being tandem long haul truck drivers. She did admit that when he pissed her off she would clean the toilet with his toothbrush!3 points

Agreed. To debate this is silly! The SEC is deep with NFL talent and elite coaches. Any team can win a 1 game playoff, but very few teams are built to play a full SEC schedule.2 points

I run my personal life this way. Except instead of $28 million, it's a one dollar coupon at the grocery store. Instead of 12 months, I have to use it in 10 days. Otherwise, totally the same.2 points

Not really with Westbrook in the fold at PG. They need shooters and 3 & D wings to surround these guys with and Schroeder is the only remotely valuable piece they have to acquire that, unless the veteran minimum market is kind to them (which i suspect it will be). But even then, Schroeder isn't going to want to be behind a guy who plays a ton of minutes like Westbrook.2 points

By my count the Dodgers have 4 MVP winners and 8 Cy Young trophies shared between 4 pitchers. Not bad.2 points

I wanted Moody at 13 if he fell. He did BUT both Duarte and Moody are similar guys. Both can play defense, can shoot the three BUT Duarte is much more polished than Moody and with Carlisle at the helm this had his name written all over this pick. I think Duarte will be a very good player, could even start down the road perhaps if he can take another step. Moody has a chance to be better but may be looking at three years before that occurs. In regards to Jackson, his upside is tied to his shooting growth. If he can develop a faceup game to go along with his mobility, shot blocking and on ball defense it would appear as if he could be very similar to Myles to some extent. Question is, what do you do with four centers now? To me one of the starting two bigs are gone and that more than likely is Myles should a trade occur. Jackson may not be ready for a year or two so a trade is not imminent. According to J. Michael of Indy start TJ McConnell is virtually a lock to return to Indy.2 points

The Pacers had a good night. Duarte is ready to step in and contribute and they’ll need that since they are likely losing McDermott. Then they took a swing on upside and athleticism with Jackson which is something they need. Both guys were all defense in their conferences and everyone knows the Pacers needed to fix their defense and those picks are a start. Also for all the bashing that Duarte is getting it’s funny that he’s the player that most of the teams the Pacers had trade discussions with wanted to. So if there was that much interest around the league I think the Pacers made the right choice in picking him themselves.2 points

I submitted years ago trying to sign up and had issues joining and never got responses. It’s basically a handful of guys that dominate the board and shout down anyone else. Worst board I’ve ever seen. Even worse than the IU rivals board. I only follow it for Pacer news wouldn’t ever join now.2 points

Many years ago I was a member and they perma-banned me for saying something bad about them on the Star News forums. It was a clown show. The admin had such thin skin to stalk members posts on other forums. I'll never forget that.2 points

I looked in on Pacers Digest which is a cesspool most of the time, the pick wasn't popular there, so there is a very good chance it will be a very good pick. 😀2 points

I follow that site too. A lot of blow hards that are idiots…and while I wasn’t huge on Duarte he should definitely be most ready to contribute early.1 point

Agreed his worth won’t go down after tonight. I kind of think they are picking anticipating moving him.1 point

Like that pick for GS. That's probably the player at #7 with the most tradeable profile after being taken. GS can still sell the intrigue of Kuminga's potential before the season or even still later tonight to get some veterans.1 point

Just that no matter what he does he likely will be up for a pay raise next year regardless…but Pacers will have Bird rights. big if…it is true rumor….Pacers/Atlanta waiting to see who is there at 13.1 point

Ross should have given Rizzo and Bryant AB's in the 9th to get the final cheers they deserve. I don't care if he was instructed otherwise either, grow a set and do the right thing.1 point

You have to figure there will be a response of some sort by the B1G, PAC whatever, and ACC. I think the SEC egos are running a little wild when they think Ohio State and Michigan would bend over backwards to join them. Hell, Texas fans think they're coming in to run things in the SEC. Texas is the super hot crazy girl. Good luck SEC!1 point

It's incredible. Feels like its our payment for dealing with so much heartbreak and losing from the past. Honestly makes it all worth it in my book.1 point

We just disagree. I've seen very little improvement from any of our players from day 1 under CAM to the day he left. Doesn't matter if it was someone else's guy or not. If players were improving under Archie our record wouldn't have gotten worse as time went on. You point to Race but did Race ever develop a jump shot? He actually shot a worse ft% last year from the previous. His stats went up because he played more...and he got marginally better but how much of that was coaching and how much was it a guy that is simply getting older. stronger, more experienced? I didn't see Trayce add a single thing to his game. Not just jumper, not a right hand, his fg% went down, his ft% went down, his turnovers doubled....I'm not expecting great players to take huge leaps but it's about adding a little something every year, taking a step forward. I don't know what you saw but Leal scored 5pts in the last 7 games of the year. He literally did not score in 13 of 20 games last year that he even played in. How did he improve his offense?? In fact the last 6 games of the year he didn't even play more than 8 minutes after averaging around 15 minutes a game the previous 14. What measures are you using to say these guys improved and maybe I can agree on something. I really would like to. Galloway fell off too. Was Rob healthy last year or not??? If he was then why has he regressed in basically everything he can be measured in? I'm not throwing everything at him...all I am saying is that the only way Woody does better is if he does a better job developing his players. Archie owns the last 4 years...and they were a failure no matter how you look at it...there is no arguing that. Recruiting, teaching, growth, winning...poor by Indiana standards. If the kids are responsible for their own growth then he recruited them...but what is the point of a coach if he isn't there to make them better...and he didn't. The whole point is in the end Woody will only be successful in which he can succeed where Archie failed. If he can't take these guys or similar quality players in the 75-150 range and develop them into much better basketball players than what we've been getting lately....he is going to be a mediocre coach too. Of course there will always be the couple guys that will come in and be a success mostly on their own but where the rubber meets the road is with the majority of the roster who will have talent but need to be cultivated to be successful. I guess I should just leave it at that...no way no how after what I've witnessed after the last 4 years I can be convinced that I just had it all wrong with the Coaching job Archie Miller did here. I wasn't even saying anything bad or nasty...just he failed at that aspect....defensively a lot of the players very very much improved. Physically a lot of the players got much stronger and developed....offensively....not so much.1 point
