Jrue Holiday or Brandon Jennings?
Flash versus substance may be oversimplifying this, but between Brandon Jennings and Jrue Holiday, it's pretty clear which player gets which tag. A recent SB Nation future ranking has Jrue as #53 while Jennings is way up at #37. As young point guards, they couldn't be any less similar. Who's the...
The Jrue Conflict
At 9:04 PM on the better coast, David Stern announced we had taken Jrue Holiday. I assume you knew this. I was furious. As Jrue kept falling past the Bucks, the Pacers, the Suns, I grew more and more wary that we'd take him if he fell to us. Lawson and Maynor were sitting there, ripe for the...
Rumor: Stephen Curry has a "chance" to drafted by the Golden State Warriors
Davidson combo guard Stephen Curry's getting some love across the NBA landscape. Jonathan Givony of the mighty DraftExpress has the 411 after the jump. Stephen and Del the Funky Hornet can shoot the lights out. Larry Brown is reportedly extremely high on Stephen Curry, and may be willing to...

Both teams played with the requisite urgency,...

February 4th, 2009. I believe this will go down as one of the great days in Bruin history. First, Coach Rick Neuheisel imposes his Relentless Optimism on recruits and the rest of the Pac 10 in football, then we get to cap the night with a Bruin Dunk-a-thon, and the trOJans of usc were good enough...
Mid-season draft board, pt. i: grading the guards
It's that time of year again. Time to start plugging the college stats in to our handy-dandy excel spread sheet to see which players are performing at draft-worthy levels. Last year I simply offered up one big generic draft board instead of breaking it down by position. This year, I will be...
