Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

Noah.

And its not even close.
“He’s always been a guy — maybe to a fault — he would always try to do what I said. That seems like something simple in coaching, but those are the guys I hang my hat on. We’ve had some guys in our program, we had a couple guys that felt I had a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. And they were right — I do have a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. I like guys that go to class, that are academic All-Americans, that come early, that stay late, that love the game of basketball. I am biased towards those guys. And I’m biased towards Rob Hummel. But I’m also biased towards their habits, their work ethic, and how they carry themselves."

I actually like Tebow, so it was easy for me.

Noah on the other hand is the worst. Probably the most I've ever despised another college basketball player.

I'm starting to get a little angry now.

Absolutely not.

Although it could just be because I am more of an FSU football fan.

Tebow is the epitome of all evil.

Completely agree, Noah is the soul reason I hate UF basketball. When it comes to football, I can't stand UF bc of thier fans.

ATL has a lot of pieces, but man they play dumb a lot. Either LeBron or Jamison will have a matchup advantage on the perimeter if CLE ends up playing ATL. ORL would be my upset pick just because if they get hot from the perimeter they are extremely difficult to beat. However, LeBron looks like he is on a mission and getting Jamison should allow them to score enough to win....that has been their achilles heel for years.

In the West, I really like the versatility Dallas has......but I don't think SA is dead yet. They played awfully well towards the end of the season, and I wouldn't be surprised if they steal game 2. PHX shot the ball horribly and got doubled up at the foul line against POR, which was very unusual for PHX. I don't think POR has the depth to win 3 more games against a team like that. LAL are just toying with OKC. The only thing to watch in that series is how Durant adjusts to being defended by Kobe/Artest/Odom over the course of the series. This is probably the best thing that could have happened to him if you think of it in terms as helping him in the future. It was nice to see the JAZZ win a road game, I hate DEN. If boredom doesn't lead to complacency, then LA should breeze through the playoffs until the meet DAL but I think Artest is the perfect matchup for Dirk....Dirk hates physical guys and he isn't quick enough to consistently beat Artest off the dribble.

LA vs. CLE would be very interesting. I'm guessing LA would rotate guys on LeBron like they are with Durant. Gasol vs. Jamison would be interesting. Bynum will get punked by old man Shaq. The key to that series would be Mo Williams/Delonte West vs. the Fish/Farm/Brown combo......not to mention the possibility of some epic final 2 minutes of the game duels between Kobe and LeBron....cause you know they will also be guarding each other. LeBron simply won't allow anyone else to guard Kobe, and Kobe is too competitive to not recipricate.

In the end, I trust Kobe to make shots more than LeBron.....LAL in 6, with atleast 4 really good games. It's also worth noting that Mike Brown vs. Phil Jackson is like a high school bully picking on Mike Tyson.

Yeah, and he even blew an easy dunk. Once again, LA gets a lead and then get bored and relax. Even Barkley is calling them out.......and I agree with him about OKC's future as long as they keep their nucleus together......not sure about CHI though, maybe if they would have kept Salmons and traded Deng and Hinrich for a real shooting guard to compliment Rose. I like their frontcourt with Noah and ...........crap.......what's that rookies name........ Noah is a better version of Anderson Varejao and Jared Jeffries love child.

OKC owns a few picks in this draft's first round so they'll likely move one for a veteran big guy. at that point OKC might be the team to beat.

As Bill Simmons has written, they should have robbed LAC for Camby.
