Tim vs. Manny

Submitted by Wiseguy on

The Lakers and Knicks are going at it right now on ABC. Hardaway has 18 points and Manny harris has 16 I believe. Mike Tirico really pumping in the Michigan love. It's really good to see Manny have some success. Hopefully he gets another contract from the Lakers!

Sticking in the NBA is all about the right opportunity.  So many guys are within the same skill range.  Tim seems to have found a good fit, and he's a mature rookie, so I think he'll stick.  Manny had a chance to stick after playing a fair amount with the Cavs.  The freak frozen sock incident robbed him of training camp, and he was cut.  This could be his opportunity to stick as a "guy."  He's certainly good enough.  Like I said, unless you're one of the 10%...the rest of the league is mostly just guys.  Why not Manny?

In other news, it may not be thread-worthy, but Minnesota (currently in 4th place in the B1G) is in danger of getting Husker'd.  Nebraska leads by 13 in the second half.  Our win in Lincoln is looking better all the time.

Hardaway was interviewed after the game and said regarding Beilein:

"Don't give him a week to prepare for you because you will lose." He said Beilein was the main factor in the current run for Michigan. He gave Beilein credit for making the team focus on the players they have now.

Mike Woodson also comments on the progress THJ has made this year.
