Funny, my bracket for the past 3 years has been "Fuck Tyler Hansbrough" but that's because he's always found a way to beat my school and/or send them out of the tourney with absurd shots that always fall.

tyler hansbrough is also on the pacers. that's right, the freaking PACERS who blow balls. how could you not have the chance to average a few points on a team like that. and he hasn't been playing because of what, an ear infection? what a pussy

Nahh, that's not what I mean. I'm just sayin he's a flat out mediocre player. Danny Granger in his earlier days could put up twice the stats, but even so a lot of the reason he's able to do that is because he gets his hands on the ball so much more with no one else worthwhile on the team. Now I'm not tryin to downplay Granger's abilities either, he's a great player but he's for sure not a superstar. It's the same with younger player like Hansbrough; when you're on a crappier team, you get the chances to put up better stats.

look, i dont even care about his NBA career so i dont even know why im arguing that. but to say that he has no talent is just plain wrong
and i'd say granger is becoming a star. he averaged 26 PPG last year and is averaging about 24 PPG this year

The things I see on this website are more dumb than Colin Cowherd saying the saints can't win the super bowl because they have to many players who went to small schools.
