Great article. Nice insight into his family and the process. Abrams is a great writer.

I could not have been the only one kind of embarrassed of our fan base in the article, right?

You've obviously never seen Rutgers fans.

I would hope we would be better than Rutgers fans

We are, you can't blame our fans for having an opinion, as long as they don't take it too far.

Even if one or two go two far it doesn't represent the majority. It's really goofy to site the comments of a few fans. There many more fans who are very much rooting for Malachi to succeed in the NBA draft.

We are all rooting for him to do well in the nba. I think there is a misconnection amongst our fan base. No one is saying he isn't going to make it in the Nba, they just feel he needed another year to develop his skills, which isnt an insult at all.

copout excuse.

copout excuse.

Why do you say that?

Why do you say that?

Probably because you were the leader of the pack of fans that were constantly berating Malachi for his decision.

I think your a good member of this board and have made many reasonable posts on other topics, but you were more than a little overboard on this one in negativity and frequency.

And that's OK. Because that's what message boards are all about.

Interesting comment on a situation by JB that some fans don't think he understands.

“A couple years ago, when we lost our point guard, we didn’t have a point guard,” Boeheim said. “Those losses are painful, but we think we do have scoring, so it doesn’t hurt quite as much. The reality is you can lose a guy today. You just have to be prepared for that. It's just part of the landscape, and I just hope Malachi lands in a good spot.”

Passion is common in sports. Empathy and class, however, are not. There are many valid arguments that Mali (and Donte and Tyler and Chris) should not have left school when they did, but thank them for their time and wish them luck in the future.

You were not. It is one thing to talk about this stuff on a fan message board but what kind of person openly says it directly to a kids face like that? Just awful.
