    is dat stack? I don't worry about his toughness but I hope he chooses his battles well when in the court. No need to attack 300 pound men when you can pull up for the mid range j.

    Man, I love KAT. I think that kid is super special, still bummed we missed on him by THAT much. I know it's far off in the horizon, but I can see him easily having a career in broadcasting after he hangs em up. I gotta think it's one of his interests. We've probably all seen that clip of him while he was still in high school, interviewing Kevin Durant. :D

    Damn, hope to see Ingram hoisting that ROTY trophy next year.

    Ingram and Stackhouse are really close. They grew up in the same area and Stackhouse has taken a personal interest in helping Ingram grow and develop.

    Ingram looks a little bigger there than draft night anyway. A very... very little. :D

    Ingram plays a lot tougher than he looks, which will throw a lot of people off.

    He may come off as this skinny, smooth character, but he's fine with a little contact and steps up to the challenge.

    The young generation including ours like to fraternize and seem to like each other inspite of their rivalries [real or not]. If the current guard can get chummy then band together, why can't Towns get some local influence to come down here to be with Russell and Ingram? Not trying to start something but it seems to be the climate of The League. So why not us?

    It also on the Lakers store or you can get the custom home jersey on the NBA store and simply put Ingram's name and number. Exactly what I did!

    I found it on Amazon for $69. Yellow, white, or purple.

    Wait til D'Angelo ignites in the next few years, you wont be thinking about KAT after that.

    Talent might match but dlo wont have that presence that kat has with his speech. Kat sounds like a 20yr vet when you hear him talk

    Shane Battier sounds like an MIT grad but I would still take Ron Artest, prime vs prime. This is basketball not Sportscasting school. DLo is going to be a star. If you do not believe me, google Jerry West's assessment about D-Lo.

    Jerry West also said Julius won't amount to much so hopefully he's wrong sometimes.

    Towns is a stud. He's got the look and demeanor of an all-time player. Russell can get there, but he's got a ways to go.
