If the Men win the World Cup kiss your ass goodbye because the sun will explode any minute after.
No better way to say it than this ^^^^^^^^. The hope is that they can at least improve and be more competitive with the better teams. The old guard need to be purged completely after this, and the young guys like Tyler Adams, Timothy Weah, Josh Sargent, etc. who have gone the European route need to keep developing and/or get healthy. Gio Reyna has a ton of potential too, and he just transferred to Dortmund. The US need to get off this MLS protectionist BS and keep encouraging the highest potential guys to go over and develop in Europe.

Edit: The guys I mentioned above are the ones that didn’t play in the Gold Cup. Obviously, the future leaders like Pulisic and McKennie who played today also need to keep improving.

these 4 hawks are on NBA summer teams.
Cook who was cleared to play by the DR's Denver team
Uthoff T-Wolves
Jok Magic
White who the Wizards just traded the drafts right to the Nets
Marble decided to go back over seas to play another season to get used to those protective goggles like Kareem used to wear.
 
That don't make no sense Laughing
what doesn't make sense the fact that there a 4 ex hawk players on NBA summer teams
or that Marble went back over season to get used to the goggles the Dr. told him to wear after Eye surgery to save his sight.

He isn't going back to Europe to get used to wearing goggles. He's going back because he isn't good enough for the NBA.

he was good enough when he was drafted as he made the team and signed a contract for 3 years in his 2nd season. then his season was cut short due to being gouged in the eye that needed surgery. so yes he was/is good enough to play in the NBA. much to your hatred of anything related to Iowa,

now be a good little boy and run along child.

also Uthoff was traded to the Pistons.

Why wouldn't he just get used to the goggles playing in the D-League? Or in practices?

My guess? He's not good enough.

Also, did Adam "Eye Poke" Woodbury get him? Couldn't have been. Woodbury was trash and would never play in the NBA.

he is making far more money over in Europe than he would in the D-League. other than that I don't have a clue, just like HS players rather than going to college go to Europe to make money

he was good enough to be a 2nd rnd pick and make the team getting a 3 year contract to start his 2nd season. going from 289,000 dollars in his 1st season to a 3 year deal worth 889,000 dollars a year,

not good enough, gee the hate flows thru you vs anything Iowa.

I don't think that 3-year contract was guaranteed, and I'm not sure he was ever paid a single dollar by the Clippers. He hasn't played in a single NBA game since the 2015-16 season. 0 games in 2016-17, 0 games in 2017-18, and 0 games in 2018-19.

"His $980,431 salary for 2016/17 would have become guaranteed on July 15, 2016, per Bobby Marks. Was waived before that happened."

He injured his eye in the 2015 season... so not sure it takes 3+ seasons to figure out how to wear goggles.

Been a busy couple weeks, camping 7 of the last 9 nights. Miss anything good while I drank, read, hiked, ate, and stared at this view?

never heard of a contract that was signed is not guarenteed.
 
whats the matter can't stand that a player coached by McCaffrey can actually play in the NBA?

is the hatred that strong amoung you?
 
I know. But you called out Scotch, also a whiskey. Made me think you were discriminating against Bourbon! Winking
Scotch is whisky, the rest traditionally fall under whiskey. I don't discriminate though! ;)

I posted the links already. He played 2 seasons in Orlando, and they didn't renew his contract. Then he signed with the Clippers, but they waived him before he officially made the team.

The stats you posted at for the 2015-16 season, of which I said that was the last time he played in the NBA. So he played zero games in the last 3 seasons; 2016-17, 2017-18, and 2018-19. The last NBA game he played was on April 13, 2016 - which was over 3 years / seasons ago.

Nice - where at? We camped outside of Steamboat for the 4th. Beautiful weather, mountain biking, shooting guns, good food, etc.

edit: +1 for the Bell's
 
No, its the fact that you said he had to go to Europe to get used to wearing goggles and not because he just isn't cut out for the NBA.
since he already proved how wrong you are, have you ever seen those goggles, like I said he can and is making 6 figures in Europe vs what 30-35,000 in the D-Leauge. if the object is to get paid to play then you go where you can make the most money. but you would be stupid enough to take far less money to play. hmmm 5 figures vs 6 Figures that is a no brainer except to posters on this board that do nothing but trash other team players out of hatred or jealousy

Very nice.

We posted up at a spot about a mile from Lake Irwin (20 miles west of Crested Butte). Setup the tent around 1:30a Wednesday morning...woke up, got out of the tent, and we were looking at that view...so we stayed put. Went on a couple hikes in the area, and it was crazy how much snow is still out there while it was 80 and sunny every day.

Also, I could drink about 14 of those Bell's Officials in a row. Dangerously tasty and drinkable.

but you ignored the eye injury that cut his career short. last season he finally was able to play where he played in EUROPE. again he needed Eye surgery to SAVE his EYE SIGHT and it was stated that he might not ever play a game.

nobody is going play or use a player that may NEVER SEE AGAIN.

and yet posters use that to say he isn't/wasn't good enough to pay in the NBA but the stats says differently,

Bells just made its way to Nevada. Very excited to be able to gt HopSlam out here.

We did some hiking around South Lake on the fifth. Ended up at Fallen Leaf Lake and then did some hiking around Emerald Bay. They still had plenty of snow on the caps there as well. Water was too damn cold to enjoy, but it was absolutely gorgeous.

But the stats don't say differently.... he barely played. He averaged not even 2.5ppg in his limited time.

He injured his eye his rookie season (2014-15), and then still played 28 games the next season (2015-16).... and then played 0 games in the 3 seasons following that.

I'm just not sure having eye surgery in 2015, is really what kept him out of the NBA from 2017 to present.

I got a couple 6 packs of Hopslam this winter -- called my liquor store every other day for like two weeks to make sure I could get some before it sold out. $25 per six pack but well worth it. It's pretty rare that I don't like one of their beers, just so god damn good -- Two Hearted, Official, and their Porter are some of my go to's.

Just googled Emerald Lake and it looks awesome. Sounds like a good 4th. In the last couple weeks of hiking in Buena Vista and Crested Butte, the snow has really impacted us. One hike had a creek that's normally pretty small, but was really high and impassable, then another still had tons of snow/damage from an avalanche. But it is freaking gorgeous out there right now -- so green, so many wild flowers, the snowcaps are cool, and love the lack of fire bans.
 
14-15 season
16 games played
7 games starter
13 mpg
2.3 ppg
1.1 apg
0.6 spg
as a 2nd rnd pick playing as a rookie

15-16
28 games before the eye injury
2.1 ppg
0.4 apg
0.5 spg

again the stats say he was good enough to play in the NBA

Nobody expected him to be the star of that team not with Oladepo on it, Marble was a role player and was quite good at it. playing 2 seasons in the NBA proved that.
the Clipprs can't use him so they cut him, its all about the team needs that dictate whether anybody plays in the NBA
But since you own a NBA team you should have already known that. also being a NBA Professional Scout you know for a absolute Fact that Marble can't play in the NBA.

Also being a Professional Eye Dr. you absolutely know when a player is healthy enough to start playing

good to know we have a EXPERT NBA SCOUT and EYE Dr. to inform one and all on good players are and when they recovering from EYE SURGERY.
 
Better roster: Maryland
Better team: TBD if Howard can coach in college. Never sold on Turgeon coaching a team up.

Eh, he is what he is. We always seem to finish right around expectations. He's never beaten a higher seed in the tournament, which is astounding and the main reason for his hot seat. We've hit our plateau with Turge, but this notion that he can't coach at all is a ******ed construct of certain individuals on here.
 
for the record Marble missed these seasons
17-18
18-19 he played in Europe,

he has not missed 3 seasons
