    Euro trip question

    I see, probably they are just coming to visit Lake Como, without any actual basketball activity. Can't blame them, best country in the world to come as a tourist (but of course, I'm biased). Thank you so much for your help, I owe you one. If you'll ever wanna come to Italy for a vacation I'll...

    Euro trip question

    Yeah, I was really hopeful to finally watch the Boilers playing a game during daytime and not in the middle of the night like I usually do when I watch games online lol But it looks like I won't be able to, there's no way for me to go in Germany, Austria O Czech Republic to catch a game. I was...

    Euro trip question

    Ciao! Unfortunately I am not a Purdue almun myself, just a college basketball fan that picked Purdue as my favorite team a long time ago (long and boring story). For this reason I wouldn't know about any Purdue alumn group based in Italy, sorry.

    Euro trip question

    Anybody knows in what city/regions in Italy will the Boilers be? And is there any chance they will have an open practice for fans to attend to? I saw that Italy is one of the destinations of the trip but from what I saw on the Purdue sports website it looks like no game will be played here...

    Elite 8 Baby....Now Practice Your Free Throws

    Sure thing but man, going two for two after that miss was as clutch as it gets, Carsen showing again that he has no fear!

    IF....you had that magic wand....which team or coach (any level) would you banish

    I think I'm missing something when you guys talk about banish all of soccer to a lifetime of mediocrity. How would that be possible, some teams have to be good for others to be bad lol And if you are talking about soccer as a sport being mediocre in the US...isn't that already the case? It looks...

    Offensive Rebounding

    Nice, so I can know if it actually happened or if I was just daydreaming. I can tell you it was in the second half for sure.

    Offensive Rebounding

    I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure I remember Haarms grabbing the ball with two hands and kicking it back out to Carsen that drilled the three and immediately pointed to Haamrs to congratulate and thank him for the play. I guess we'll never know:)

    Offensive Rebounding

    Lately I'm having fun talking about boxscore errors. At some point in the second half Haarms got an offensive rebound off a Carsen's three point miss and then passed the ball back to Carsen for another three (this time made) and an assist. No way he can have 0 offensive rebounds in the game like...

    Eastern...

    A little thing I noticed, I don't know if I was the only one. Cline scored on a fastbreak with around 10:48 left on the clock in the first half and the assist was credited to Stefanovic, but from the highlights video on YouTube you can clearly see that it was Nojel making the assist and Sasha...

    Jeez seriously, lately it looks like this is an IU/Langford board... Back on Newman, awsome get from CMP and I would like to know more about his skills. I read here that he is already a very good 3&D player (wich is great) but I wanted to ask about what parts of his game does he need to...

    USA East Coast team with Aaron & Sasha.....

    Hey guys, just to clarify that the italian team is the "experimental" national team, basically a team of players 25 yo or younger that are being evaluated to see if they can have a future in the real NT. The important thing though is that they are all pros already, so they know how to "become a...

    Chartouny (SIAP)

    Of course it would be great for Purdue to have him, it would bring senior leadership to a young team, stability to the PG position and make the team better in general, all without taking any scolarship away from the next classes. The problem is that I'm not so sure Purdue would give him as many...

    Francis Okoro Projection

    Agree. I mean, it's nice to see and it's better they predict him to pick Purdue but I still remember the JJJ situation, where Purdue was like at 80% and then everybody switched to MSU at the last moment and Izzo cried a river (like always).

    Lol, exactly. No way he can be successful in today's basketball, right?

    NBA DRAFT: He's not overly athletic....

    I have to say it, this kid is something else. It's true that he's not overly athletic and probably doesn't have the potential of Ayton or Porter or Bamba, but his level of skill and feel for the game at the age of 19 is mind blowing. Seeing him dominate the Eurobasket against Euroleague players...
