[SIZE=5]Jabari Bird has been a big part of the surging Bears
In the first half of the USC game, with the game still tight, it was Jabari Bird who did the damage with 2 long range daggers
and in a game where many Bears provided huge plays, there was one that really caught my eye...
the trojans were trying to make a run by speeding up the game, and got a steal on a scramble play ... it looked bad as USC had a many on two fast break ... with SC PG passing the ball up court to what would have been a score (and maybe foul), [COLOR="#0000CD"][FONT=Impact]Jabari took to the air and FLEW[/FONT][/COLOR] ... knocking the ball harmlessly out of bounds
to me, that may have been the play of the game[/SIZE]

At halftime of the Oregon game I noticed Nick actively instructing Ivan and Kam about defense (he was showing them defensive positions and waving his arms around)...Ivan and Kam were definitely listening very intently to what Nick was telling him...it was another example of Nick's intelligence and obviously the respect Ivan and Kam have for their teammate...

Indeed, remember the walk-ons academic star athletes! I'm told Hamilton is on track to possibly graduate as early as spring 2017. Wants to do grad school at the place we all love UC BERKELEY! GO BEARS!

Please don't tell me that. 3 years?
It hurts. Seriously.
Or, maybe it's because kids these days can get college credit in HS with all the AP classes?
How many credits did he have upon entry?
A summer school class here or there, too?

I have wildly succeeded in getting two posters with opposite views to both misunderstand what I was trying to say. Or, as Red Sanders use to say (in a thick Southern Accent): We figyuh: "If we don't know what we is doin', ouvh opponents don't neither" So, to repeat: "I was glad to hear that the reason Hamilton hasn't seen the court is that he was blue-shirting, and that there are reasons to imagine that his reportedly great basketball spirit and overall intelligence will have the chance to surprise a lot of opponents (as well as us)." Well, maybe that's not the clearest either. But, let's just say that his mom's (or is it his dad's) posts about his extraordinary post play, at 6'4", plus his extraordinary intellect (which qualified for a scholarship at any university in the country, including Harvard, and on which -not an athletic scholarship- he is studying here, with the shame of having received one grade (an A minus) under an A, all has convinced me that, contrary to popular perception (i.e., he's never mentioned in the prospects people speculate for future years here), he may be a quite extraordinary player for our team, and (like all the other guys on this extraordinary collection of individuals) an extraordinary representative for our school and town culture.

nick, let's be real here, unlike maddy with the not on point color scheme, you were always destined to become a california golden bear with your early decisions to rock the blue & gold beachware, a very intuitive fashion statement:cheer
glad you & dwight are coaching up/mentoring the young ones but why aren't you going to yoga with jaylen, what's up with that?...hasn't your dad taught you anything?:headbang

team: arizona wildcats
shockster 2015/2016 pac 12 prediction: 1st place
coach: sean "dunkin' donuts" miller
what you need to know about miller: his guys play tenacious defense, not a great gameday coach...and yeah he likes them dunkin' donuts variety boxes, he's multiple that way
what up in tucson?: arizona loses a lot in stanley "bumper car" johnson (13.8 ppg & 6.5 rpg), undrafted college drop out brandon ashley (12.2 ppg & 5.2 rpg), rondae hollis-jefferson (11.2 ppg & 6.8 rpg) & fearless leader tj mcconnell (10.4 & 6.3 apg)
the wildcats will return kaleb "zeus" tarczewksi (9.3 ppg & 6.2 rpg) who along with utah's jakob poeltl are the best true 5s in the pac 12...boston college transfer ryan anderson will be an impact player at the 4 after redshirting last season & gabe york (9.2 ppg) along with former bears recruit (moms didn't like berkeley) elliott pitts & parker jackson-cartwright (suspended at loyola high school for cheating on classwork) will play bigger roles along with incoming freshman allonzo "the gunner" trier, justin simon & chase comanche (moms is a protypical little league dad)...the wildcat with the most nba upside ray smith tearing his acl is a damaging loss
what this means for the bears: the pac 12 title & west coast dominance runs thru tucson until cal knocks them on their azz...tuscon is a dump but them senior citizens from the surrounding retirement communities along with the low gpa students show up at mckale in numbers...this program was built by the legendary lute olson along with his braintrust jay john...it's currently being slowly run into the ground by donut boy, he's shown no indication that he's capable of winning the big games

Well, I know he took several AP courses (ACED THOSE), 4 courses (ACED THOSE) at UCLA as a participant in their VIPS program, tested out of MATH & ENGLISH, has gone to summer sessions at UC BERKELEY every year since high school (ACED) and I hear he is planning on attending summer sessions this coming summer. I believe he has a plan, so I'm told.
concordtom;842656753 said:
Impressive.
Maybe he has no social life and prefers to spend his time with face in books. The amount of reading that is required to get straight A's in college... There are only so many hours in a day.
I know my wife was a 3.97 (1 A-) and she was not a D1 athlete, and still hardly slept.

jeff goodman is reporting that the emotionally distraught arizona head coach had the following paranoid conversation with his pool guy trevor (an arizona grad) this morning at his catalina foothils home (which is at the end of a cul de sac of a mediocre cartball course):
trevor the pool guy: "mr miller, would you like me to sweep the pool steps today?"
sean miller (putting down the 2 glazed with sprinkles donuts he's eating for breakfast along with a zero coke): "what the **** are you talking about?...you think we lose twice to wisconsin and now cal is gonna sweep us next season?...quit ******* with me"
trevor: "mr miller, all i'm saying is..."
sean: "look pal, i'm know exactly what you're saying, do you think i'm ******* stupid?...that cal and that bald azz coach is gonna be the new alpha dog in the pac 12...trust me, i hear exactly what you're saying...if you don't like cleaning my pool, you should get the **** out of here and go clean the pools at asu"

josh gershon is now reporting the following tense arizona staff meeting from the bowels of mckale this morning:
sean: "what's going on with you ugly dumb azz clowns?...did you watch the mcdonalds game, allonzo trier jacked up 20 shots, what's up with that?"
joe: "coach, i think..."
sean: "shut the **** up, joe, don't talk unless i ask you to talk, ok?...you're the dumb azz who told me to jettison tyler dorsey and his little league dad for trier...if i wanted a guard to jack up a million lousy shots a game we could've kept td"
damon: "coach, what does jettison mean?"
sean: "shut the **** up, damon...you really are stupid, where did you go to college?"
silence in the room
sean: "look, all i ask is that you dumb azz bitches get me 3-4 basketball players a year that all they wanna to do is play basketball with a basketball on the basketball floor, is that asking for too much?...it's not like cal or stanford where you gotta find guys that can actually read and **** like that"
sean scarfs down the final chocolate glazed donut with fuchsia sprinkles from the double sized box
sean: "if that bald azz guy in berkeley gets his program ahead of my program next season, you sorry broken down candy azz soft clowns are gonna be busing tables at the applebees on craycroft"
miller storms out of the room & the door slams closed
damon (shaking his head): "you got yours printed up?"
joe: "yeah, i'm a step ahead, mine will be ready at kinkos at 5:30 pm today"

jason scheer is reporting that tucson is a dump & that sean miller had the following heated conversation at his catalina foothills home (on a mediocre golf course for chunky monkey cartballers):
amy miller: "come on sean, put down the maple glazed donuts and come swim with me and the kids"
sean miller (looking at his bloated belly while taking a couple more bites): "that doesn't sound like any fun"
amy: "sweetie, things aren't that bad, didn't you out recruit cal for one guy this year?"
sean: "are you ******* kidding?...mark ******* tollefsen?
amy: "fine, throw a pity party for yourself"
sean: "trust me, i will"
sean (petting his dog lute on the head): "lute, you're really my only friend, how do you think next season is gonna be vs cal?"
lute (wagging his tail): "ruf"
**********************************************************************************
adam schimdt is tweeting he overheard the following angry interaction from the bowels of mckale this morning:
athletic director greg bryne: "sean, gotta be honest here, i'm a little more than worried about your stress levels and behavior these days, you're cursing at your staff daily and gaining a lot of weight...jim and arte are concerned too"
sean (wiping his mouth with his arizona golf shirt to get the red & blue sprinkles off his lips while picking up another donut): "what the **** are you talkin' about?"
greg (with a sigh): "why did damon leave for basically a lateral position at memphis?"
sean (talking with his mouth full): "who knows, who cares, him and josh always had some weird **** going on, anyways we don't need any more guys from the northwest to be successful"
greg: "do you think you'll be able to beat cal 3 times again next season?"
sean picks up the dunkin' donuts variety pack box in front of him, tucks it under his arm & walks out while slamming the door...he really, really likes them variety boxes, he's multiple that way
seasons change, people change, the balance of power in the pac 12 is changing, sean miller is never gonna change & stop eating them heart attack hand grenades, he loves them dunkin' donuts...who knew that huf is the lead singer for future islands?
***********************************************************************************
greg hansen is reporting the following private client/patient conversation between sean miller & the chair of the university medical center's psychiatric department:
sean (glumly laying down on the sofa while morosely picking the blue sprinkles off a chocolate glazed maple bar): "what up, doc?"
dr kalbearski: "sean, a lot of people are worried about you including amy, are you in a good place these days?"
sean (sarcastically): "other than the balance of power in the pac 12 shifting from tucson to berkeley, what would i be upset about?...we lost ivan rabb and jaylen brown to that bald azz guy and now not even loyal wildcats like sean rooks and steve kerr will send their kids to me"
dr kalbearski: "sean, i think it's important that you keep a balanced perspective to ensure your mental health, that you try to maintain a realistic appraisal of your current environment"
sean: "what the **** are you talkin' about?"
dr kalbearski: "tuscon is a dump"

eric bossi is reporting the following conversation from the dunkin' donuts on ina road this evening:
amy miller: "honey, relax, losing tj leaf isn't the end of the world, right?"
sean miller (stuffing a strawberry jam maple bar in his mouth): "are you serious, we're probably gonna lose him to ucla and them adidas shoes and that totally ***** up our chances with jaylen hands visiting this weekend, might as well just get drunk again during his visit, we got zero ******* chance now"
amy: (sipping a diet dr pepper): "kinda weird how all the arizona fans thought your being coach of the usa team would help recruiting"
sean: "our fans are around 90 years old and live in retirement communities in green valley, they don't know ****"
amy: "well at least you got to spend time with archie"
sean: "**** archie, he never shares them donuts, he's just a greedy chunky monkey"
amy: "sweetie, what's really bothering you?"
sean: "that bald azz guy in berkeley is closing the gap on our program, i'd really like to kick the crap out of that shocky guy too, he's ******* annoying"
amy: "i really wish you wouldn't swear so much around the kids & maybe you could pay more attention to us, ok?"
sean (glumly): "what?"
