    It's fun to reminisce here...

    I think a lot of people read this thread. It's nice to have a thread about guys we wouldn't otherwise be able to keep up with, and it's also nice (IMHO) to have a thread where no one is wondering if a kid who hasn't shaved yet is going to be a one-and-done.

    I read both this thread and the international thread and have appreciated the efforts to keep me informed of how Singler was doing overseas, how Shelden is doing and will be very interested to see how Nolan does, as well as others. I have also enjoyed seeing other college blasts from the past as there are many great college players who don't have NBA careers.

    People tell me they're reading so I assume that someone out there is.

    To be fair, there is not all that much to discuss, since none of us actually see most of these games, so it is mostly just looking through statistics for the players after the fact.


    Daniel Ewing and Paris-Levallois finished their preseason tournament with the third-place game against Daniel's old team, Besiktas of Turkey, and they lost 80-71. Daniel had 20 points and 6 assists and Sean May had 12 points and 6 rebounds. In the win, ex-Tennessee player Chris Lofton had 23 points and ex-Charlotte player Gokhan Sirin had 10 points.

    It's still early yet. There tends to be a flurry of moves after the NBA shakes out their rosters. In addition to updates on the Duke men and women, Awhom's mentioning of other US college players always seems to uncover a few interesting names. He has a lot of readers - his stuff is getting posted in crazie places!

    Here is an interesting brief interview with Keith Langford about some of the issues that players overseas face. Keith admits that he is relatively fortunate as one of the elite American players outside of the NBA but has witnessed all kinds of problems.
