the key here is not on the college level, it's the access they would have to the HS kid that doesnt know any better who would listen to the likes of an isaiah to shape his future. that is where the crux of the issue lies - if college coaches cld consult for nba teams, the inherent conflict of interest is undoubtedly there for them to talk to these kids and steer them where they want them to go, not for the benefit of the kid per se, but for the benefit of themselves as college coaches and/or the nba teams they would represent.

most of us on this board are more savvy than the avg 14-16 yr old kid - we can read btwn the lines, these kids cant neccessarily. for the nba to allow this type of relationship to exist, opens them up to un-needed risk, which they dont need as the league is losing revenue, facing a potential lock-out and lacking the overall level of talent it once had. the nba is fast becoming a joke.

They need to investigate Lebron, Bosh, and Wade. I can't beleive how Lebron played us like suckers. He never intended on coming to New York. I bet you won't see him wearing a New York cap anymore.

there's nothing to investigate. he probably WAS coming to ny but holding off just to see if miami possibly could free up space for 3. once they pulled it off, that was that.

The question is how did Miami know to create three max slots.

lebron was free to talk to his bud dwade at any time. who in turn can pass on any indication to his gm that he wants.

wow...is that what you got out of this?

i think Mike D and Jim B were clearly speaking out against Isiah as a show of support for D'Antoni.

the worst part about this is that now donnie and mike d have to be looking over their shoulders all year to watch for stupid ****ing dolan hiring isiah again. make no mistake, dolan has embarassed donnie and mike d and put them on notice in his own stupid way.

i'm glad mike k and jimmy b spoke out against the move.

Pretty much, yeah. Mike had a category 5 sheetstorm about to blow up back at the office and his two buddies happened to be in perfect position to help him out, so they did. Why do you think it was MikeK and JimB getting quoted in the media and not Roy Williams and Bill Self?

Alan Hahn: Nate Robinson has been on a ridonkulous scoring tear lately (remember when he couldn't hit Jerome James with a Big Mac in early January?)
