Last year, he hadn't in a while, but showed up for CBB season, so it'd be cool if he did that again.

Maybe he's seeking out Ahdonis

Cheick Diallo's guardian being labeled an agent and his eligibility is in doubt.

Of course, this is the second straight year with a potential ineligible elite recruit at KU.

Just saying.

Ben Simmons is special. I'm gonna be catching as many LSU games as possible this year.

Duke and UK's recruiting is just incredible. Calipari already with four 5-star players and it's not even Thanksgiving.

Alabama is just so awful. Them and Missouri are just going to get obliterated this year.

Looking forward to this UK/Duke.

MSU/Kansas doesn't do anything for me.

Brandon Ingram looks slow and Skal looks really soft.

Ingram and Skal are both way too soft for this level right now.

Ulis has been the difference. Dude hardly ever makes a mistake. Never really wows you but makes the right decision like 95% of the time.

Question for you rules people.

I play in a bball league here in Chicago. Guy shoots a floater, air balls it, and grabs the rebound and puts it back in. Our team thought that's not allowed. Ref says you can do that. Guy on our team was very adamant you cannot do that and actually gets ejected from the game lol (he went a little apeshit).

Can you rebound your own airball?

Catching your own airball is allowed if it was a legitimate shot unlessyou're playing your pickup game according to NBA rules, which makesyou a douchebag. The top and side of the backboard is not out of bounds, only the back-facing plane of the backboard is. Step-throughs are not traveling.Mar 26, 2009
I googled "Can you rebound your own airball" and that came up at the top lol

Yeah, you can catch your own airball, assuming it was a shot attempt (which I guess is a given with the term airball).

Gotcha, thanks.

I could have sworn you couldn't rebound your own airball, but guess that is wrong.

I always thought you couldn't either. Interesting.

We've had this discussion on one of the threads on here before. I like the NBA rule better. I don't think you should be allowed to.

If you are shooting a runner or have already used you legal amount of steps you shouldn't be allowed to.

Getting ejected for arguing it though is lol

Illinois is horrible. Tied at 75 with Chicago State trying to avoid a 1-4 start.
