Anyone else read the story about Jack Taylor from Grinnel Collage in Div 3 of the NCAA?
Today he scored 138 points in a game
Had 108 attempts including 71 3 point attempts
Missed 56 shots for the night.
He averaged 3 shots per minute
Dont care what the standard is like, still a pretty fair effort

I don't think it's a fair effort at all.?

How an a kid put up 108 shots, more to the point how can the coach let him? This is now a NCAA record and IMO should have an asterix next to it. It's a joke

Really need Nash back

And need their bench to start scoring more

I think Morris has done an ok job as pg
But Nash back and Blake as back up is needed

Sorry but the bench is trash

Don't be sorry mate.
I tend to agree.

They signed guys expecting the bench to be strong.
Bench is prob averaging 10-15 points a game. Terrible.
They don't fill the other stats either

Agree with most.

Bulls will beat Rockets, I reckon Clips are a huge chance against OKC and I think Portland will beat Phoenix

Pistons are a shambles, good to see

Sixers got done 83-92 by Cleveland to add to the recent defeat to the Pistons.

Gonna get flogged when they play the big teams.

On a happier note,the Bobcats win again to go 6-4.

Mike Dunlap for coach of the year.

Philly are a joke, no Kyrie for the Cavs they should have handled them easily. I bet they regret the Bynum trade too now they realise what a headcase he is.

Knicks are fighting hard in the 4th after it looked like an easy loss after a good first half.

Bulls lost.... again.

4 OT games today
Wizards still cant win, went down by 1 against Atlanta
Thunders got up over the Clips
Knicks in big trouble, cant see us getting out of this today

[Johno6]

KNICKS LOSE BY 3, DAMMIT

Wizards were very unlucky. Korver hit a 3 to give Atlanta a 1 pt lead and then Martell Webster put back an offensive board but time expired with the ball still in his hand.

And while we again could not hit a shot down the stretch my man hits a three to win it. FML

froffies?????

where yo at homes?

How an a kid put up 108 shots, more to the point how can the coach let him? This is now a NCAA record and IMO should have an asterix next to it. It's a joke

Actual interview transcript from Kobe:

Reporter: Kobe, a college kid scored 138 points tonight and took over 100 shots …
Bryant: “Wow … No kidding? Where?”
Reporter: Grinnell College in Iowa.
Bryant: “Really? Wow. That’s impressive. That’s crazy. I don’t care what level you’re at. Scoring 138 points is pretty insane. How many 3s did he shoot?”
Reporter: 71.
Bryant: “Holy sh–. How many points did they score as a team?”
Reporter: 179.
Bryant: “What?!”
Reporter: No other starter had double figures.
Bryant: “That’s incredible.”
Reporter: Dude on the other team scored 71 points and lost.
Bryant: “That’s amazing. He must have been wearing the Mambas, man. Only Mambas have no conscious to shoot the ball like that
Reporter: If you did that, would people be celebrating you?
Bryant: “Would people be celebrating me if I scored 138 points? You know how it is, some people would, some people wouldn’t. They can all kiss my a– as I’m sure he feels the same way. If you score 138 points, you kind of have a license to tell people to f— off.”

I still don't agree with it.
