Well that's usually how we roll anyway.

5/18/2011 3:09:20 PM

bigger and faster than horner plus comparable shot? I'd take that considering whats left of the 2011 bigs.

5/18/2011 3:11:59 PM

haha, read as "bigger and faster and hornier"

typically the uglier you are, the better you are at basketball. (except for Kris Lang)

5/18/2011 3:23:45 PM

In the vids out there he was a little bigger and more athletic than I expected. For a 3 point shooting euro PF, he isn't soft either. I see he's already rocking a knee brace though

5/18/2011 3:25:46 PM

so is it like cool to act black in Europe now because of American culture

For shame. I heard somewhere that Belgium is one of the ugliest countries in the world.

must be all those beer goggles

some footage of Andre the Giant's kid

5/18/2011 3:30:50 PM

DUH THAY

Looks like a Brandon Costner who can dunk. I hate watching him play at the top of the key like that.

5/18/2011 3:53:24 PM

For those who don't know, this was part of a trade that sent Horner to Belgium for a player to be named later.

5/18/2011 4:01:34 PM

BC had no trouble dunking: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJJ4lIcVDVM

I'm quite pelased that we got a big man to gain some experience behind Howell, Painter and Vandy. Now we need to pull in an elite one in 2012.

5/18/2011 4:04:47 PM

We still need a legit center to sign in the 2012 class, TBDV can't carry the load himself. Other than a center we needed more shooters so it isn't all on Scott Wood so I like this move. Hopefully he and Harris can help spread the defense some.

[Edited on May 18, 2011 at 4:10 PM. Reason : tbdv]

5/18/2011 4:07:36 PM

We still have Tyler Harris right? 3* PF for 2011?

5/18/2011 4:09:13 PM

there's like four legit centers in all of college basketball.

5/18/2011 4:11:06 PM

Brown isn't a bad shooter... and Graham's deep range is supposedly one of his strengths. So with Big T De Thaey, Harris, and Graham coming in with Wood, Brown, and CJW, we might have several shooting options... hopefully.

Agreed. Finding a true center is going to be difficult. Finding a kid who's 6'10 and has a frame that can add 20-30 lbs and learn to play in the post is more realistic.

5/18/2011 4:26:40 PM

uchebo to juco it looks like...chipola fl?

You may be aware, but Graham is a 2012 commit. He's in the same class as Tyler Lewis.

5/18/2011 4:37:13 PM

^oh yeah, got confused there for a sec.

5/18/2011 4:39:38 PM

there are supposed to be two other player announcements today

5/18/2011 4:42:41 PM

two in addition to the one we already heard? no wayyyy.

also, i like that dude's statline in the euro u20. i don't much like his wanted poster, but what can you do.

5/18/2011 5:21:58 PM

Problem with most Eurotrash is that they don't know white guy rap protocol here in the US

He'll be yelling out "nigga this" and "nigga that" until someone tells him otherwise

Quote :

""In the hallway outside the Toronto locker room, Raptors GM Bryan “Dapper Dan” Colangelo is holding court with me and three of the local writers. As we discuss some of the big trades that went down this season, Primoz Brezec walks by and he is completely drenched in sweat from the pregame warmup. (As Brezec passes our group, he raps (loudly), “She said she wants a hood nigga!” We all stare at each other for a few seconds trying to decipher what just happened, leading to Colangelo apologizing for the Slovenian’s gangsta ways, and everyone doubling over in laughter.)""

5/18/2011 5:26:44 PM

i dont see the problem

5/18/2011 5:27:36 PM

But CJ and Lorenzo just might

5/18/2011 5:28:17 PM

nah, i think they would just see him as foreign and would laugh

kinda like the same reaction if they would see a retarded kid acting a fool w/ rap lyrics

5/18/2011 5:30:59 PM

5/18/2011 5:31:39 PM

is he duking it out with Evtimov?

5/18/2011 5:33:13 PM

Ilian had bigger arms than that. This guy looks a little bit thin for an evtimov.

5/18/2011 6:20:24 PM

Also Evtimov isn't Greek

Please let him give us a Tracy Smith-esque "AND ONE NIGGA!" just once.

5/18/2011 7:17:03 PM

From what I have been reading he sounds a lot like Evtimov. Given our lack of big men in the future, I will take an Evtimov type big man for sure. GG so far.

I assume 2011 since he's signed his LOI which only seniors can do. He's playing international ball the rest of the summer then coming to State in the fall.
