I got Brand in my fantasy team and his stats have been very useful. He missed a game today with a bruised hip, which sucks. Hopefully not getting an Allstar nod will piss him off and he'll get even better numbers.
No one who ever played at Duke was any good. They become good once they leave the place of evil that is Duke. Though I may be a tad biased with my poor old 'Heels sitting at bugger all and lots.
I'm okay with having the Heels having one really shitty season. It's a new coach, let him build his own Dynasty now. Unfortunately, it'll take a long time to get all those records back into a respectable position. Here's hoping we do something SPECTACULAR and somehow make the NCAA's so we don't break that streak...
Nonsense. All North Carolina (6-14) has to do is win the ACC tournament, which means they'll more than likely have to get past Maryland (18-3), Wake Forest, North Carolina State (both 17-6) and #1 Duke (21-1).
Heh heh heh.
On second thought... the Heels might make a good run at “winning” last place in the ACC. Remember, North Carolina fans-- losing isn't a BAD thing... it's a GOOD thing.

“I didn't say it would be easy, Neo. I just said it would be the truth.”
Damn Bastards kicking the poor old 'heels when they're down. Mind you if it was some evil team like Duke, I'd be in with both feet. I'm wondering if Capel and Lang wish they had declared last year...
dirk is an awesome player i admit that too.... i've just been a huge brand fan ever since his college years... tonight with 2 minutes to go in the first he already has 8 rebounds.... wow
(edit)... end of first period and he has 12 points and 11 boards... that's awesome!

I've got two words for ya!
That is pretty impressive, if the Bulls still had Brand and added Jalen Rose and Travis Best with the recent trade I imagine they could probably make the playoffs in the weak Eastern Conference.
Yeah... i think getting rid of brand was one of the worst moves that the bulls could ever do... the games over and he put up 27 pts and 23 rebounds.... those aren't shabby numbers... stupid bulls
You can't say yet, though. If Chandler is Garnett or Kobe, then that's better than Brand. It's a high standard to be better than Brand for sure, and obviously Krause has a lot of confidence in his ability to evaluate high school kids. But, maybe he's right. We don't know yet.
I don't know what to make of this, but Bonzi Wells is going home. So much for the Rockets as the dark horse pick. I'm confident that Luther Head can pick up the ball and run with it, but losing Wells is still a huge blow to Houston.
