Michigan Players in the NBA

Of course. The danger is definitely that NBA present a higher than normal risk to society given that they come into contact with many and travel plenty.

However, just like I wouldn’t want anyone I know, however fit they are, to test positive, I wouldn’t want anyone part of the UM Basketball community to either.

JJ Redick had Duncan on his podcast recently. Long but really insightful listen if you have the time for it!

Trey Burke getting grilled on NBA Reddit for being an anti-vaxxer.

It has somehow led to Zavier Simpson getting grilled for his accident, John Beilein “thug” slander, and people accusing Michigan for being a dirty program.

Ummm I shared a trending story about one of our best players of all-time. Despite you inferring that my comment was pointless, it seems like that your comment was even more so.

Yes. Very trending. On all the major news outlets. Oh wait.

My bad. I forgot about the UMHoops rule that states news about former players can only be posted if trending on a major news outlet.

You’re kinda being a **** for no reason.

This is a non-issue, Trey has a tendency to be twitterelic! Let it ride!

In other “news,” here is a clip of waived-off Howard Eisley three in game 6 of the NBA Finals. The Jazz went on to lose by one point. Thought it was an interesting point in history that I wasn’t aware of until now.

Lucky he had Steve Kerr guarding him.

Glad Jordan didn’t give up when people here gave up on him. . . twenty games into his rookie career.

What were the highlights, particularly as they related to Michigan?

The clip on twitter is great. He’s passing to Duncan and screaming ``SHOOT IT’’ before the ball even gets there.

I rewatched that game the other night. What shotmaking, my lord. A few of those Walton makes off the dribble…

At least once a week my brain stops all other operations and wonders why that shot against Oregon didn’t fall.

It’s worth listening to (but not around kids.) It’s very entertaining. They talk to him as they watch the 2nd half of the Oklahoma St first round tourney game.
