God he looks like a lumberjack! Great talent though!

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

The guy from the selection committee was on CBS and basically said there's one lock as a 1 seed and the guys asked if its gonzaga and the committee guy basically smiled and says he wasn't going to say. It's pretty obvious they will be.

Good. They should be.

 

[MickZagger]

Olynyk has the highest TS% of any college basketball player in over a DECADE!

Are we all watching the Gonzaga-Southern game? The way things are going, it may well be the last opportunity to see Olynyk in action before the draft...

Yes we are. He was on an unstoppable tear for a little bit, as is to be expected against such bad competition. Let's see if he can pick it back up to close out the game in the clutch.

Gonzaga's probably the first #1 that I haven't been rooting against in my life in a 1/16 game. Go figure. At least I've got gamecast at 3am in afghanistan

 

[VanillaGorilla]

LOL at that step back hahahha

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Looks like Pangos is going to be the one to win this game for them.

 

[VanillaGorilla]

I have Gonzaga losing to Wisconsin, I can't see them going too far.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Wow he is slow footed

 

[Pinwheel1]

I do too. I wish Oregon was in their bracket instead of Louisville's. At least there would be a chance.

Olynyk dominated today against a Southern team that was playing out of their minds. Hitting shots they had no business hitting. Good little wake up call game.

If we get the 12th pick; you think he's available?

I doubt it. I hope so, though.

I how he plays in the tourney will set his value. He may go even higher than 5th by the time it's finished. I saw a glimpse and he looks very ready for the nba.

He's a baller. I'm glad people are starting to take notice.

I thought Stockton looked good in that game today. He has a real knack for making the right pass (gee, wonder where he learned that) and great help D instincts. If he gains the kind of strength that John did and learns to shoot better he might get some draft interest.

Even though I kid with you; I actually count on you to tell us about the college players. I really don't know shit until I watch the sweet 16

Even though I love the things David Stockton does on the court and I'm a big fan. He's probably the biggest non-prospect on that team.

 

[Pinwheel1]

I can't seem to find the draft thread, so I will use this one instead. What did you guys think of Marcus Smart today?
For a guy who is expected to go # 2 in the two mock drafts I checked out, I was not impressed. No doubt a great body for a PG, but none-the-less not very explosive.

I say sign splitter. His contract is up after this year and lets lure him to the Blazers !!! Keep him with LA and Meyers Leonard ! Screw JJ at his 4+ million contract for next season. Blazers won't go after Olynyk when they are getting Leonard experienced.

Splitter back in February.

Splitter again against OKC.

[Boise Blazer]

Although I am not opposed to Splitter something tells me this board would rip him apart the first time he had an average game.

 

[julius]

I like what I'm seeing in Olynyk.

 

[MickZagger]

Olynyk would be so beastly in the scarlett and black.

 

[magnifier661]

I just got a alert that gonzaga just got upset

 

[Nikolokolus]

same old Zags

Too bad he's a choker.

We don't need perennial losers. Pass.

Did you expect differently? I didn't. Seriously, every year its the same thing that haunts us....guarding the 3 pointer. Good interior defense. But, teams always 3 us to death in the tourney. Its pretty ridiculous.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Gonzaga REALLY missed Gary Bell Jr in this game. Even with that though Wichita State had to shoot like 70% from 3 to win. They were unconscious.

Has there ever been a gonzaga player that was successful in the nba? I don't know, I'm not trolling.
