I appreciate the civil response. But I still do hold people accountable for reading the thread if they are going to comment in it, even if they think it is crazy. If you feel the unlikely nature of this happening makes it not worth the time to read or discuss, then don't, just skip it.Before I replied, I went back and read the whole thread. There is no quote from JB stating he wants CJ to be prepared to play at the 2. CJ is not JB and if JB ever insinuates he would consider playing CJ there, he would only do so to light a fire under the 2 guards. I'm 99.999% certain that JB has no intention to ever play CJ at the 2. If you want to hold onto that .001% chance, than you're entirely welcome to.
And I don't blame people for not reading this whole thread. It's a crazy idea IMHO (as one poster stated, it's silly season right now) and the likelihood of it happening is so remote that most people probably figure it's not worth time reading about or discussing. You and some others feel differently. And you're entitled to your opinion of course. But expect to be challenged on it.
Ultimately, I only care about the success of the team. If your idea comes to fruition and the team succeeds, fantastic. I'll be happy to be proven wrong. But I think we'll have a very nice season with CJ playing his normal position and the 2 guards playing theirs. LGO!
I don't understand why you don't believe Donna's quote from CJ. Doesn't seem to me that CJ would make something up to a reporter about what his coach has said to him. That would be a really stupid thing for CJ to do, and I don't think CJ is stupid. Do you?
And when you say there is no quote from JB, what about the piece in Donna's article that says "Jim Boeheim has said he will employ C.J.Fair and James Southerland at the top of the 2-3 zone" ? Do you really believe he didn't say that to her? Wouldn't it be career suicide for a beat reporter of the SU Orange to make up a conversation with the coach of the team?
