Re: Danny Sprinkle Gone from MSU

I'm sure the Bobcats are aware that Mick Durham is back coaching again. He had a good year over at MSU-Billings. He retired about a couple weeks ago. https://www.montanasports.com/college-sports/msu-billings/msu-billings-mick-durham-longtime-montana-coaching-staple-retiring Interesting. Sprinkle in...

Re: 2022-23 Big Sky Basketball Season

Portland State/Montana men's basketball game tonight has been postponed due to the Vikings not being able to get out of Portland after 10 inches of snow fell at PDX. Many flights have been cancelled.

Damian Lillard, Weber State alum

Lillard, now a 7-time NBA All Star, and how he ended up at Weber State. An excellent read by Marc Spears from Andscape. I put it here because it is more about his time at Weber and not about his NBA career. https://andscape.com/features/from-oakland-to-ogden-how-damian-lillard-became-the-pride-of-we...

Re: 2022-23 NBA Thread

The thing is, come playoff time, you simply can't have players on the floor that can't shoot. Trust me, I've seen it with the Sixers with Ben Simmons first, and to a lesser degree Thybulle. If you commit playoff minutes to guys like that, you're playing 4 on 5 on the offensive side of the court, an...

Re: 2022-23 NBA Thread

Blazer fans are not happy about it (not really happy about their whole deadline deals), but I don't really see why. Thybulle, when playing, is 2nd-team All Defense, a need that the Blazers have had for pretty much the whole Lillard timeline. Blazers have always had a plethora of scoring but no defe...
