Best of luck of him at the next level, especially in the unlikely event he gets picked up by my team. At any rate - his two years of being focused on toughness (an opportunity he wouldn't have gotten in Ann Arbor) should serve him well in the big leagues.

has Miles to go before he rests. An elite BB talent, he's learned whatever little he can from Izzo and needs association with players of his caliber and coaches who know how to get the max out of him.
The three losses to M will fade out in the rearview mirror of his life as he signs contracts, banks millions, and embarks on the high-profile journey of an NBA up-and-comer.

Good luck to the young man, may he slap all the floors he desires in the NBA.

It's highly likely that he would have been a Detroit Piston - if SVG hadn't made one of the worst trades in NBA history at the deadline and tossed away this years lottery pick.

I googled spartan dawg and got this...
We score so consistently on floor-slap plays that I consider a floor-slap to be an act of genuflection and respect. Bowing before the superior team.
BTW isn't it interesting that we know this gif isn't from this year because we didn't play MSU at home this year. And we still swept them.

Miles and Jaren to return.

with a photo-op with a self-serving, beaming Izzo in the background? They must be queueing up the lavish press-conference for the JJJ "I'm staying" announcement, or the Nick Ward "I'm playing overseas" announcement.

Best of luck in the NBA . A good second rounder for the Pistons.
I know trolling is fun sometimes, but he's a top 15 pick.
He was a top 10 pick last year but hurt his stock significantly with relatively soft and too unselfish play.
Your top pick 6'6" power forward can't be a perimeter jump shooter that passes first.
He goes 15-16 at the highest assuming there aren't many Euro's entering the draft.

And the buddy still can't spell "dog." Congradulations to him though, made the right choice since he'll be an NBA stud and won't have to lose to Michigan anymore

He'll be putting up 17 point, 7 rebound, 4 assist stat lines by the end of his rookie year. He will thrive in an environment that emphasizes basektball over "toughness," or whatever.
Jackson is leaning towards returning for them, he's one of the youngest freshmen in the country and his parents have money. He's a top 6 pick if he leaves, but his parents might not think he's ready.
He can now openly eat at some fancy places ($40 for 2 meals) in East Lansing again on someone elses dime. His parents can order dessert this time. Will be interesting to see which agent he picks.
"So, Miles, are you glad you came back?"
And definitely did not bring out the Miles Bridges that we'll see in the NBA. Good luck to him.
It'll be nice to see him riding the bench in the NBA. I don't think he's great at anything, he's just really athletic, which isn't unique in the league.
Shit thing to say.
"It will be nice to see him riding the bench."
Well, maybe you need to actually watch him a bit. Very good outside shooter, nearly never misses from the line, rebounds exceptionally well. He'll carve out a good NBA career.
Saying he's just athletic and isn't great at anything is flat out inaccurate.
He could have improved his floor slapping with another year in EL, but then again..... What's the point if they end up having to vacate a season or two anyway.
I thought naughty bits weren't allowed.
Not sure who this guy is
Ohhhh
I wonder if he can bridge the cap from college to the NBA?
