    I don't either. Just one of those things he's said for years and years.

    Like, it is a string of words that holds no meaning for me. Is he saying that is what the ball handler is doing to the other guy? Getting HIS shorts/drawers pulled down? And then he will summon the custodial staff to come collect them? Like "juking someone out of their jock strap?"

    It is very strange to me. There is no problem with it, it is just very unique.

    I think that’s the gist of it

    It's either that or he is aggressively inviting the player to a three-way with the janitor.

    The only plausible explanation is that Bill Raftery is an AI

    its the old faked him out of his jock saying, but he calls it lingerie for some reason and somebody needs to pick it up. It's icky, so call the janitor.

    edit: just saw your other post about it..

    Thanks, I actually did need some verification that I was understanding it correctly, haha. Very strange thing. But I guess that is good color commentary, if I am talking about it a day later.

    Glad Eisen is saying it. "One Shining Moment" sucks and, honestly, I wasn't even aware they did it anymore. The song is terrible and saccharine, plus I can watch actual highlights, not some random slow motion shot of players for 3 seconds at a time. I'm mystified as to why people would anticipate it rather than, at best, tolerate it.

    I hope he's not a stranger. Good luck to him, get paid.

    If he goes 6th overall, my very limited research tells me he will be our highest draft pick since 1968, and 2nd highest ever.

    I feel like we are going to look back on this season 5-10 years from now as a massive waste of talent.

    Won't need time to know it was a waste of talent.

    Those guys were mighty talented but I don’t really look at it that way because this team had significant holes in it.

    College basketball takes more than a couple freshman athletes at sg who can't really shoot the 3. Pg and big man, to start. We did not have enough talented basketball players to compete consistently and imo, will look more like a bball team next year

    I'm not saying we should have won a title, but we got blown out by an average team in the first round with two potential top 10 picks. Seems like those 2 alone should have been able to carry us further.

    We were overrated but we also significantly underachieved. This was a top 20 team imo

    What teams were led by 2 true freshmen sgs who did much of anything all year? Or last year or year prior. If we had a pg and big man, I would agree. Basketball starts at the point and down low. Yes that's on Barnes for trying to compete without either one.

    I mean, I know you don't watch the NBA, but the Clippers are considered a pretty good ball club, and their two stars are both wings. I don't think it's impossible to be successful without a PG and a big man if you have enough talent at other positions.

    Nba and ncaa are a totally different game, or a guy like Keon, who can't dribble, pass or shoot that well, wouldn't be a lottery pick due to his athleticism.
    Yes anything is possible, but we were way undersized in the post, unable to consistently hit the 3 from the 3, 4 and 5 positions, and collapsed under pressure with no true pg. Bad combo
