Can't really teach the latter. Those skills play in the NBA. He's doing great--substantial minutes in a substantial role. Great to see. He's doing much better, honestly, than I'd thought he do. Go SuperMO. Where's the band?! WHERE"S THE BAND?!

No doubt he would have had made an impact backing up Ivo at the stretch 4, would have played in the Sweet 16, had two years with DJ at the point, could have been the difference in the 2013 MAC Championship game... lots of what ifs. Either way, glad we had him for as long as he did, hope he left with fond memories. MY STATE. MY TEAM.

I have a feeling neither coach at OHIO really figured out a way to use all the talents Mo has. I think everyone knew he had some raw talent but obviously, whatever the pros do (the triangle) he is really liking it and shining! Still, a difficult thing for an undrafted free agent to make it but he has some big paydays coming from somewhere (EUROPE).

I think some of it probably has to do with having more talent around him so that teams can't just focus on shutting him down like they did with Ohio.

I've very happy to see our own Nature Boy doing so well in the summer NBA games. That quote from Fisher seems to indicate he's going to make a roster somewhere. I'd love to see him in Cleveland.

Isn't there a saying that the only person who could hold Michael Jordan under 20 points a game was Dean Smith?

Ndour went 2-8 for 4 points with 6 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 blocks, 1 foul in 25+ minutes. The Knicks will play the Bucks on Friday. Not sure of the time.

Neither of the Knicks' top players played at all, and Ndour and Cleanthony Early both had fairly limited minutes. Overall, Ndour averaged 9.6 ppg, 4.8 rpg, 2.0 bpg, 1.0 spg, 0.6 apg, 1.0 tpg. he was 22-43 FG, missing his only 3 attempt. 4-5 FT.

Thank God the CAVS drafted Kyrie instead that year!

Mo has set himself up well! 2nd team All MAC. Only 9 W's LY. Man - what Mo could have done with some runners, screeners, and dishers........

I think that we played Kansas in the first game (big loss and Tommy Free took a concussion) and beat Santa Clara in our 2nd game (Tommy couldn't play). We had first row seats on the sideline right near the baseline so stayed for the Kansas vs. Arizona game. Derrick Williams for AZ was A MAN in that game. I'd have bet my life that he'd be a big success in the NBA, at least as a scorer. Believe me, OHIO hasn't fielded anyone since Trent who was the force that Williams was in that game vs. Kansas. I'm so surprised that Wms is not an NBA success. Goes to show how good you have to be to be a bigtime player in the NBA. Where's the band?! WHERE"S THE BAND?!

He didn't mention Mo but he said he wants good, smart guys on the team. Guys that get it, want to get better and can be coached. Mo certainly fits that profile and I wouldn't count him out in NY.

That foreign money could be pretty enticing instead of possibly ending up in the NBDL.
