Yes, a starting lineup of PG Trae Young (6'2"), SG Bilal Coulibady (6'7"), SF AJ Dybansta (6'9"), PF Anthony Davis (6'10"), C Alex Sarr (7'0") could be fun. They have the height at all the other positions to makeup for playing a small guard in Trae Young.
Still in disbelief the Wiz payed Trae that much, but I guess you gotta use your cap space on somebody. They could be a fun team next season.
Yeah Lawal has the athletic gifts, but Nickel is a big shooter and they will always be popular in today's league. If Lawal can develop a solid offensive game though, watch out.
Nickel had two strong seasons at Vanderbilt. His scoring jumped 5 ppg from year at Tech to last season. Shot 40% from 3 on 7.6 attempts per game and 58% inside.
Both are G League guys right now. Lawal has higher ceiling but Nickel is more pro ready now if needed for 10 day contracts.
got assblasted by the Brazilian Borg
This is the bad kind of Brazilian Butt Lift.
Pig African Pomp! Nice work!
After watching Tyler Nickel, I am surprised he got drafted. I would take Lawal over Nickel without hesitation.
Coupla pretty fish.
Mike, if you can find some back water, a Johnson Silver Minnow in gold. 1/2 ounce or 3/4 ounce will get a Red to eat, even in the murky water down there.
Nickel goes to the Suns with 17th pick in 2nd
Lawal right after him goes to Dallas with 18th pick in 2nd
I went to Ann Arbor for five days a few years back in October and gotta say, there are always clouds over it.
Here's an inland report for y'all.... Drove to Colorado last week from RVA for a six week work trip selling my feather earrings to the Colorado locals at music festivals and art shows. Colorado is my number one state for sales. I had my old neighbor and buddy Evan join me for the drive out, which helped immensely. Took the trip in my new to me 2016 Silverado, towing my box trailer, aka home for the next 6 weeks. We stopped in Frisco for a hike, then ate some pot gummies and went to a free music show at Lake Dillon. The people watching was world class. Dropped Evan off at the Denver airport and I spent the day in Denver running errands before stopping in the Glenwood Canyon for a few minutes of evening fishing. I've driven through this canyon I don't know how many times and never stopped to fish it. Pulled off at a very busy exit and there were five other anglers in the water. Fuck it, my therapist told me I'm required to fish for mental sanity, even if it's just 10 minutes. She was obviously right, it helped. The caddis hatch was absolutely insane and I apparently was the only one fishing the right hole. Didn't see any other anglers land anything and I donged 'em with a dozen trout brought to hand, 13 if you count that same rainbow that I landed twice an hour apart. I will be hitting it again later this summer.
The drought out here is SEVERE. Massive fires just sparked in Utah now over 60,000 acres. The Colorado sky is grey and choked with smoke. I had ash all over my truck this morning in Silverton. The current water levels in the river are at late July levels, if not lower. It's going to be really bad for the fish come August and September.
My first event was the Telluride Bluegrass Festival. Holy shit, this has got to be one of the best music festivals in the country. I enjoyed every single minute of it and had record profits. I'll do anything to be invited back next year.
My girlfriend and I explored Silverton, CO by foot, paddleboard and Silverado the past two days. We ate, drank, explored and offroaded through the mining camps amongst the mountains. This place is a true cowboy town in the middle of nowhere and you will absolutely die driving off of the Million Dollar Highway if you don't pay attention. I don't know how I ever moved away from this state 15 years ago but I am luckily to be able to come back often.
Some fish..... https://www.instagram.com/p/DZ_XwhxjQ4f/?img_index=1
Former Hokie Tyler Nickel is one spot ahead of Tobi on the ESPN Best Available right now. 15 more picks to go and both in top 10 on Best Available
I have not been to either of the NRV locations in ages but both Downtown ROA and Tanglewood locations were huge letdowns as compared to previous memories last time I visited.
Looks very likely it'll be Bosnia & Herzegovina. It'll be interesting to see what the "cut line" will be for 3rd place teams
They're probably draining Miami tonight.
The one in Christiansburg is constantly better
This. And it's been better for a long time
I'm pretty sure Shane does!
Scotland got assblasted by the Brazilian Borg. But if they don't advance, please more Scots realizing our British roots in Boston and having a good time. What a fun run.
I've had bad to inconsistent experiences at the Blacksburg Macado's since 2011. I remember it being better when I was a kid. The one in Christiansburg is constantly better, granted I have a different beef with them strong arming a small local restaurant out of the way that I used to really like.

# | Virginia Tech Officially Announces Brian White as the New VP and AD I'm firmly on record as believing it was a mistake.
Fortunately, it seems we are re-big-doggifying ourselves and a lot of my other laments in that comment no longer apply.

# | Virginia Tech Officially Announces Brian White as the New VP and AD I know you've all been anxiously waiting for me to weigh in. Here goes.
He brings back Stick it In, he can do whatever else he wants.
Macado's is capable of making a good burger, but they're inconsistent and their fries in particular are just awful now. This is how it is down the hill here in Rumandcoke anyway, I haven't been to the one in Blacksburg in at least 5 years probably.
The place I miss in Blacksburg is Highway 55, that was the best burger in town circa late 2010s but they were a Covid casualty I think. Apparently they still have locations all over NC.
Agree with everyone saying they don't necessarily think "burger" when they think of the Cellar.
And they left it with a See U Next Tuesday as well telling him to kick rocks until 2027.
