McGary says he's staying.

Haven't seen his draft prospects, but I'm guessing he helped them with his play in the tourney.

A wise decision, and unlike Hardaway and Robinson, he can still be a monster next year with the 3 others leaving.

Hardaway is who he is at this point. He will look worse without Burke alongside him.

Robinson is the wildcard. Scouts love his potential, so does he roll the dice while his stock is higher? Come back and try to build his resume, while taking a huge risk that his flaws will go from red flags to patterns?

Bingo. I happen to think Hardaway won't have much of an NBA career (although he may get more of a shot than your average kid, simply due to pedigree), but another year at TSUN won't help his draft stock at all (and may hurt it, as you point out).

Robinson is the wildcard. Scouts love his potential, so does he roll the dice while his stock is higher? Come back and try to build his resume, while taking a huge risk that his flaws will go from red flags to patterns?

I think Robinson has a lot to gain by coming back. Then again, I think an NBA team would be insane to draft him in the first round this year (yes, even assuming that hypothetical team is drafting based on his potential).

Manny Harris is a guy who hurt his stock by sticking around. Unlike the NFL, the NBA oozes over potential and will overpay for it in the draft. The longer you play, the more you plateau and reinforce that your potential for greatness is limited.

I think he does too, but if he's hearing top-20 from multiple sources, he has a ton to lose.

I love his sig.

I mean we've had the skill to back it up, but honestly, this has been the least delusional group of fans I've ever seen on a board.

Mike and company wanted to talk a lot of hoops early in the year then went strangely quiet as the wheels fell off the scUM bus down the stretch. Now they have a good tourney run and our resident scUM trolls want to play tummy sticks in the basketball threads again.

Pretty predictable.

Yes. Yes you are.

If I don't post, I'm called out for disappearing.

No dumb fuck, you get called out for being such a bandwagon fucker that you only come back when your team is doing well again.


You're hilarious, Jax. It's why I mostly stick to the non sport forums around here these days.

Climb your ass down off the cross and go find a scUM sports board then.

how can you call me out for coming back when I never left? Your creeper skills seem to fall off when I post in different threads not associated with sports :lol:

-Lets see...you were posting in this thread multiple times a day up till 2/9/13 then nothing at all until 4/3.

-Oddly enough 2/9 was the same day scUM lost to Wisconsin and started a 4-4 free fall stretch to finish the season as the 5th seed in the BTT (in which they were bounced in the second round).

-You just so happen to come back to this thread on 4/3 a few days after your team makes the FF.

I know in the mind of an Ohio scUM/RedSox/Miami Heat/UK basketball fan that isn't being a frontrunning bitch but to the rest of the universe it's pretty cut and dried.
