the black kid in Angels in the Outfield?

2/10/2007 12:56:02 AM

Scored 9 points in 9 minutes played at one point.

Talking about Beidrins or whatever his name is getting rebounds; "He gets his hands on a lot of balls."

^^dumbass(or troll, hopefully troll)

2/10/2007 1:06:25 AM

Finished with 10 min, 9 pts on 4-5, and 3 reb.

2/10/2007 1:23:00 AM

he was only here 2 yrs, not long enough for me to know him as "JP"

2/10/2007 1:27:37 AM

Was Joseph Gordon Levitt in the stands?

and more importantly


Was Ranch Wilder announcing?

^^ yeah, and that's why he's playing in the nba now. you tell 'em!

2/10/2007 8:41:24 AM

^^^God i hope you're just trolling

2/10/2007 10:08:29 AM

I'm a fan of anyone who comes out the NC State programs...BUT, I don't really consider him that successful in the NBA.

Being traded all the time, coming off the bench for a mediocre team to play 12 min. a night at best. All I'm saying is that he could have used more time in college to develop his game and Herb is a big reason why he jumped ship early.

2/10/2007 12:16:55 PM

how do you people bring up herb in every sports talk thread?

2/10/2007 1:06:25 PM

Jefferson Pilot, what?

2/10/2007 1:08:14 PM

you dumb motherfucker

the reason he jumped ship is because he got really hot toward the end of his soph season and in the ACC Tourney. the draft pool for forwards was shallow that year and he got some bad advice that he'd get drafted early based on potential.

if anything I think Herb helped him by teaching him how to play solid D. if anybody watched the game last night, you saw him playing solid D on Ben Wallace and the big white dude during Josh's limited play

2/10/2007 1:10:17 PM

tke, it's amazing how defensive you are with Herb.

If anyone even gets near your man-crush Herbie you have a fuck chicken. Did you put it tween' the Herbster's buttcheeks while he was here?

2/10/2007 1:44:43 PM

he was like a father to me

2/10/2007 1:51:22 PM

^^^he went undrafted. he wasn't good enough to make the NBA coming off that "really hot" streak. obviously he got bad advice, but if he had been in love with herb the way you seem to be, he probably would have stayed at least another year.

2/10/2007 2:12:57 PM

Powell himself said the reason he left was becuase he was tired of playing in the julius hodge show

so in other words, the best nba player we have had since del negro retired?

2/10/2007 3:25:35 PM

Powell stated several times in interviews that he didn't get enough touches in the offense and that Hodge was given the star treatment by Herb.

There were also rumors that Powell could not have come back as a Junior even if he tried, because of some NCAA violations.

2/10/2007 5:23:19 PM

dear God, please find me one of those interviews

hell, i'll even take a Prick Pride thread that mentions his dislike for Herb




i beg of you, find me something other than "I heard he didn't like his role at State or his coach"

Quote :

"Powell says he entered N.C. State with an open mind, but he never felt like the program had its priorities in order. Though Powell never mentioned the player by name, it seemed to him that the team was catering to blue-chipper Julius Hodge, and Powell was taking the lumps that came with it. ‘’Say you have a big-name player, and at the school it’s all about this guy, but you’ve got other players with potential, or even what they already do is more productive,'’ Powell said. ‘We just had a lot of stuff going on with the team internally that wasn’t positive for us. At one point in time I was about to say, `I don’t want to play basketball anymore.’ And I knew I shouldn’t be feeling like this.'’"

^thank you.

"ind me something other than "I heard he didn't like his role at State or his coach""

^^how bout that? If that quote doesn't say both of those things, then I'll be damned. once again, "JP" shoulda stayed another year and herb/his "system" were big reasons why he didn't.

2/11/2007 4:34:09 PM

first result on google search: Josh Powell hodge

2/11/2007 5:15:14 PM

well, fuck me

2/12/2007 5:58:21 AM

^^^ Yeah, cause herb is the only college coach to EVER show favoritism towards 1 player

2/12/2007 6:14:41 AM

I would have loved to have seen that team play something other than a princeton offense. There was alot of talent and chemistry that probably got squandered under herb's command.

2/12/2007 8:51:18 AM

he has 12 pts, 5 rebounds and 2 assists in 30 minutes of play with 5 minutes left in the game tonight

2/12/2007 11:19:27 PM

maybe he was right to talk shit about hodge

2/12/2007 11:21:15 PM

hes been our best performing player in the NBA for the past few years.....lol. Hopefully Ced will get some minutes next year

2/12/2007 11:22:28 PM

Well, that's not hard to do when there's like 3 total

2/12/2007 11:27:57 PM

yeah, thats why i had a row of dots and then a "lol".......we have(had) Powell, Ced and Hodge
