    Chad Ford hearing Grayson Allen might be a first round pick if he left school today:

    Chad Fordþ@chadfordinsider29m29 minutes ago Getting lots of positive feedback on Grayson Allen from NBA folks today in prep for new Big Board. Might be a 1st rounder if he declares

    But, still, who'd could've ever dreamed such an insanely improbable thing as "little Grayson Allen" succeeding in a college title game. So magically "poetic"!

    Right, Songbird?

    I brought this up about 20 pages ago: Nantz and Raftery were going out of their minds that TWO HIGH SCHOOL ALL AMERICANS were scoring points while Winslow and Parker were on the bench.

    Whodda thunk it? In an era where freshman dominate, two McDonalds All Americans carried a team for a ten minute stretch.

    Bill Walton and Lew Alcindor never did that as freshmen, for damn sure.

    And Alcindor paid for it years later when he was trying to drag Walton up the court for 48 minutes.

    I thought that was Lanier.

    Joey, have you ever been in a Turkish prison?

    It was both Walton and Lanier. I had left Lanier out because LTL had only mentioned Kareem and Walton.

    Lanier is another who never had what will forevermore be known as a Grayson Allen Moment.

    Dear Sally and Geno,

    I have watched 2 1/2 consecutive minutes of the NCAA Women's National Championship game. Wow, you guys are liars. It sucks. Quality Fundamental basketball? rudimentary not fundamental.

    I'm glad the women are playing, I hope they love it and enjoy the competition. But getting someone who is not a friend or family member of a player to watch is misguided. Willow TV has Australian Cricket Highlights, it's more entertaining.
