Dirt, where have you been? Get it together man, this board needs you. Hart and Sky sent out the choppers and dogs looking for you

Just haven't been able to make it on here, Mac. One of my brothers has been in the hospital twice in the last 10 days, and 3 times in the last 4 weeks Just got out again about a day ago. He's a very sick man.

OFC

Just so you know NBADraftNet has Frank going at #27 to Brooklyn. Kind of find that interesting since just a few days ago he wasn't even in the 2nd. round. OFC

Frank Jackson, Duke

Jackson’s decision to pursue the NBA has been criticized by some, as he was overshadowed by several of his Duke teammates in his freshman season. But he came to the combine and posted some of the best numbers across the board of anyone. He had the fastest shuttle run at 2.7 seconds, comfortably ahead of the rest of the pack, and his max vert of 42 inches was second only to Diallo. He also finished in the top 5 of the standing vert and three quarter sprint. Coupled with a great jump shot and scoring ability, Jackson, at age 19, definitely looks like a potential first round prospect after posting the numbers he did.

Good for him! Represent DUKE well young man.

Always find it amusing in these Combines that they test for abilities that have little to do with the actual game....when will he run a shuttle in a game? Sure he is quick but so are others over the same distance....a 10th of a second is of no consequence...and his vertical....he isnt going to be a shot blocker so as long as he can take it to the rim it doesnt matter if he can jump 42 or 80 inches. The NFL one is even more laughable....

Give me someone who is athletic but has the mindset to be great and I'll take him over someone with greater athletic ability any day. I wish him well on his journey and hope it works out for him. Its a long way from 19 to 80.

Pigsah's track record on predictions are about as good as mine in the powerball. To be fair, it's extremely difficult to read your posts and understand what you're talking about half the time, between the punctuation, the emoticons, smiley faces and lols I get lost in the jungle and have no clue what your point even was to begin with.

How good was Frank's combine showing? Every mock in past two days notes FJ not even Top 5 in 2nd round. Players leave for the 2nd round and $40-$75k in D-league?

I'd rather play at Duke on national tv 35 times than in some makeshift gym in Greensboro.

Some kids just don't want to be in college. Frank made his choice.

The thing is I never even said what he's claiming.. he said "frank would go higher than Luke" so I told him he was an idiot... and he is and everyone sees it now lol :mad:o_O:rolleyes::D:cool::confused::). And I hope he does go first round I don't see how it's rubbing it in anyone's face if he does.

I'm pretty sure it means you like to teach other men how to urinate in a manly way. Either that or it has something to do with mountains.[/QUOTE
I gotta admit Ipsychosis and Pisga you give this board some personality. :) I laughed reading the back and forth on the board today.
