Well as we all know, the preseason determines the regular season's outcome so you're right.

The way Iverson has been able to conserve his body even with his style of play is pretty admirable. His game style depends on penetration, contact and athleticism. He has lost a step, no doubt, but he can still do a lot of the things he was able to do early in his career and stay injury free for the most part.

Hollins has no clue what he's doing. He's an assistant coach, not a head coach. Just because the players like you, doesn't mean you should be coaching them.

The battle of the overrated. I'll take South Florida and that defense over Cincinnati. It's hard to predict this game because Cincinnati has played no one, yet you can't really say they have been playing badly. As a Big East fan, I would like Cincinnati to win and make the Big East look good, but I really like the way South Florida is looking.

I already got the swine flu anyway.

Can you play a five on five game without joining an official crew? And can you play a 5v5 game without your created player, but with an actual player?

Iverson isn't as big of a ballhog as he has always been advertised. He has always had respectable assist numbers averaging 6 to 7 assists a game.

I had low expectations after I played the demo, but there is definably some great and noticeable additions to this year.

http://memphisroar.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/coleman_13_feet.jpg Dwight who? I've been hearing a lot about this guy. He can't shoot a ball two feet, but he jumps out of the gym. He's been getting a lot of Joey Dorsey comparisons.

Yeah his first ever game left us amazed and the newspapers were crowning him as the next Pele. He has talent but he isn't dedicated which leads to his inconsistency.

I still think he is one of the best coaches out there. He got fired unfairly out of Kentucky, but he completely turned around two programs before he got there. He can still definably coach a good BCS team.

I get Sports Illustrated and Newsweek, but the only one I actually read is Sports Illustrated. I usually just skim around Newsweek.

Chris Douglas-Roberts has been a beast this preseason. I saw a link to a New Jersey newspaper and they were saying CDR has a chance of starting.

Yeah I was surprised when I saw that name too. He seems like a top 5 player for 2012. The most surprising part is he's a Kansas guy. Still a lot of time left, but I'm loving what I'm seeing out of Pastner from the recruiting standpoint.

I said he was overrated when he was in Real, plus he's a cancer that would rather party before practice. I don't understand why Barcelona would want him. Things are going prefect for them. They shouldn't ruin with a player like Robinho. Manchester City wanted him out towards the end of the season last year and he hasn't begun this season with the best foot. I was using Google Translator, so the translation may not be the best.

Yeah Shawn Miller's been doing great in recruiting ever since he went to Arizona. We already know he's a great bench coach. I love what Jeff Capel is doing to. For the last few years Oklahoma always has one of the best recruiting classes and a threat to win the Big 10.

Well if we use the logic people used on the Grizzlies this means he is going to suck all season since the preseason means everything and everything that happens in preseason translates to what will happen in the regular season.

I got back from Tennessee-Knoxville Monday night. Amazing campus, loved it. I'm really going to do everything I can to go there because everything about my visit there was just about perfect. UT-Chatt was pretty nice too, but it's a small campus with not that many students. I know some guys that go there now and they are saying that they're having a lot of fun.

I got the game last year and it was pretty good. The new presentation looks really nice. So I'm guessing there will be no Collage Hoops 2K10 this year again?

Seems like whenever Thabeet gets blocks, he also gets in foul trouble. He has 3 blocks today, but also 5 fouls.

Looking at the Grizzlies box score against the Mavericks. Demarre Carrol continues to look good. 13 points and four steals. Thabeet seems to be improving his rebounding compared to the summer league. You can say all you want about Thabeet, but the guy works his [expletive] off in practices and does all he can to improve. I'm really starting to notice it. Conley is really showing that he wants to stay in the starting lineup too. He's been playing great in the preseason.
