Speaking of Emery, is Jackson done playing ball? I imagined that he'd pursue playing as a pro for a while, but haven't heard anything about him since the season ended. Seems like he could play in Europe fo sho.

Why is the floor white? That's going to show all sorts of dirt.\Originally posted by LiveCoug View Post
Also, notice the apparently new WCC logo. Meh.
Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

Sounds like he's going to give Europe a try. He got an NBA workout during the draft process, but talked about how it was part of the process of getting a contact in Europe this year.Originally posted by SteelBlue View PostSpeaking of Emery, is Jackson done playing ball?

Ugh!. I hate the charge circle. My theory is that is just makes the defense more likely to run to that spot and flop. I suppose they are already flopping anyway.Originally posted by Surfah View PostI believe it was voted on last year and will be instituted this season IIRC.
Plus, when a referee has to look at whether a guys feet are outside the circle, he may not be looking at whether the defender gained a legal defensive position. Was this really a problem in college bball? A bigger problem is that big guys get in foul trouble far too often. I don't think this will remedy that.

Taking charges is a big issue in college basketball IMO. It seems like the only inside defense for most teams. I don't think this will curb that. It's a product of zone defense and the zone isn't going anywhere.Originally posted by Jacob View PostUgh!. I hate the charge circle.

I like the circle because now flops under the basket won't get called as often. Everybody was already flopping and this will actually reduce the number of called flops IMHO.Originally posted by Jacob View PostUgh!. I hate the charge circle.

The floor is getting stained sometime within the next week. The color will actually be the same as the outside area.*Banned*

I agree in part. There is too much flopping, and bigs are getting fouls they shouldn't because they are taught to make bad defensive decisions re: flopping. They are also getting too many offensive fouls called due to the same. It's part of the reason college ball is a guard's game. But the charge circle in the NBA hasn't reduced the number of flops. I think it is linked to an increased.Originally posted by Flystripper View PostI like the circle because now flops under the basket won't get called as often.
