How does a 17 year old high school kid get his favorite NBA team to draft him? He performs the greatest pre-draft workout in the history of sports for the greatest talent evaluator in the history of sports. It's literally unbelievable.

Just did an AI search on why Mavs fans are the dumbest and worst fans in the NBA, and it said they are. Dallas Mavericks fans are widely viewed as the "dumbest" and "worst" due to their recent statistical ranking as the most toxic, negative, and reactionary fanbase in the NBA. You can thank Cuban.

This is why the Lakers shouldn't build around loser Luka. Making the Finals is the standard, not something you celebrate.

I would like to point out that some of us started talking about Swain going between 14-18 as early as February. I'll stand by my claim that Swain will be better than Yaxel, Ament, Steinbach, and I'll throw in Morez Johnson. He'll be better than two or three of the guards too, but we'll need to wait to see who. Why will he be better? He can run offense without shooting himself, and he can get in the paint and score. Defensively, he'll be able to switch 1-4, and he has the length and athleticism to be a really good defender. If his outside shooting improves moderately, he's an all-star player.

To further Gerry's point, the NBA doesn't play centers in the post with their back to basket anymore. (That's not to say they shouldn't, but they don't.) Matas needs to become a better rim protector without fouling. He needs to show the ability to pass and screen better. All of this entails better quickness and lateral movement. Then he could get into the first round.

Wide receiver is the most plentiful position in football.

@Gerry Hamilton Here's another one for your Shaq stuff Gerry. Kobe Bryant led the Lakers to an 89-84 victory in Game 7 of the 2000 Western Conference Finals against the Portland Trail Blazers. Trailing by 15 points in the fourth quarter, Bryant paced the Lakers and stuffed the stat sheet, finishing the game as the team leader in points, rebounds, and assists. Kobe became the best player in the world that day.

Whether Paul Howe is the "greatest" Delta Force combat leader is a matter of opinion, as the U.S. military does not officially rank its special operations leaders. However, he is widely regarded as the most respected, influential, and legendary combat leader in the history of 1st SFOD-Delta

Can't resist, Gerry. AI says the two US military figures most like Kobe are George Patton and Paul Howe. Patton is the greatest combat general in US history and Paul Howe is the greatest individual warrior in Delta Force history, credited with killing more combatants ever in single battle during the Battle of Mogadishu during 3-4 October 1993

You want to go big boy? We can get to your level. Reporter: "Still waiting for a big smile out of you, you're up 2-0. What's the story? Are you not happy or you're only half happy, or..." Kobe Bryant: "What's there to be happy about?" Reporter: "You're up 2-0." Kobe Bryant: "Job's not finished. Job finished? I don't think so. I never gave a damn about anything until I won title."

You still went back to rote phrases. I'm not a coach. The keyboard doesn't know the difference between Ben'Jarvius and Plato.

Big boy recruiting does not necessitate subjecting yourself to the vicissitudes of localized socioeconomic instability. Try to come back with something better than "dumb" and "big boy."

What's dumb is investing resources in recruitments that have a high degree of inherent volitility.

Stay away from recruiting Mississippi like the plague. It's like it's still 1981 recruiting Marcus Dupree. Louisiana isn't much different.
