@Gerry Hamilton Jerry West talking to Shaq about Kobe in July 1996. "I got this kid. He's going to be the best player in world. I'm telling you. I know talent. He's going to be the best. You can win multiple titles with this kid."

Texas wrapped up summer workouts Friday with a full game scrimmage. Two 20 minute halves, refs and coaches on both sides. 

Matas led all scorers with 28. 

Punch had an impressive all-around performance

Amari Evans had his best workout as a Texas Longhorn. 

Isaiah Johnson was really good. 

Bo Ogden hit three 3's, and a couple of big one's late. 

Texas hit a lot of 3's ... they got on a little heater (not what the normal will be for this team).

Talented team + great coach usually means good things. Super excited basketball has some juice this year.

Negative reference. Never did anything but get his butt kicked when it mattered.

Jordan Livingstone*.  Let’s be real though, it’s all business at the end of the day for these guys.

Different situation for Jordan. He wanted to come back to Texas but just recently became eligible. Texas wasn’t going to wait, and rightfully so. Parker on the other hand acted like he was forced out when it was his own choice.
