Dean Wade is a very solid defender... 6'9, positionally versatile, deflection generator, elite shot contester. Guys simply have trouble scoring when he's in the vicinity. Does little things really well, tagging cutters, weakside rotations, etc. Glue guy.

6'9 16-year old French forward Nathan Soliman has had an unbelieve season for INSEP in France's 3rd division Averaging 15.8 PPG, 7.1 RPG and 4.0 APG, 2.9 stocks per game, on 47%. Soliman's recently made the move to play Nantes in Pro B, getting his first action at a higher level of professional basketball First thing that pops on film is his length, he's very versatile, can defend multiple positions, handle and shot is coming together, plus the footwork and touch as well, advanced for his age. With so many elite talent's in the 2009 gen, Soliman for me remains as the top prospect in that class, a special talent who's only scratching the surface.

Two things: 1) Extremely bizarre comment by Hoopsville/McHugh: "...even if the last championship, no disrespect, was a while back." IWU has a really successful program - regularly wins CCIW titles and goes deep in the NCAA tournament. Has good kids, does things the right way. Dave is taking a shot that the Titans have not won a national title since 1997. Why in the world would that fit here? Look at Ron Rose's face...sheesh. 2) Jackson Niego is a #whyd3 guy. IWU is lucky to have a bunch of guys like this every year.

Good morning! Two things on Matas Buzelis: 1) The 3PT shooting is perking up! 36.4% on 6.4 (!) attempts after taking 3.3 last year. 8.2 per 100 last year, 10.3 per 100 this year. He's logged 8 games w 10+ 3PAs this year, only did it once last year. 2) Statistically elite iso defender. 42 players have defended at least 100 iso attempts (like, the guy he's guarding actually shoots) -- Matas has allowed the lowest point total (81), eFG% (33.9), expected shot quality (38.6 eFG) and PPP mark (0.7) among that group. He still needs to get stronger -- guys get into his chest and move him a bit, and he allows a little too much cushion for my liking sometimes to potentially compensate for that -- but he mirrors well for a guy his size. I like that he's had to navigate a bunch of different player types this year. Those reps should be helpful.

.Chamath Palihapitiya says President Trump is completely different from how he is portrayed by the media. "He is charismatic. He's intellectually sharp, and he's funny. And when you put that together, he can engage an audience for a long time and be totally extemporaneous. The other thing I would say is that he is very polite. And he's kind in a way that was disarming and was not what I expected." "And so I felt that I had misjudged him many years in the past. And so I was very glad that I had an opportunity to sit beside him and to actually interact with him one-on-one. It was really engaging." "It was not just a pro-America agenda, but it was very clear that he was pro-innovation. So he was really supportive of AI in the details that he talked about, he was very supportive of crypto in those details. And he's very much low regulation, low taxation. And so when you put that together, it does stand very much in contrast with what the alternative is." "So it's us talking, and he says, you guys are a really beautiful couple. And I said, well, thank you. And then he turns to me, and he goes, well, you must be really rich. And I started laughing out loud. Natalie thought he was hilarious."

Kentucky will have to move on to another C in the 2027 class after Obinna Ekezie Jr reclasses to 2026, and commits to Louisville. Obinna wasn’t just Kentucky’s #1 C, he was their #1 overall player. Things were going well enough they hadn’t offered another C’ in 2027, (til recently) So what’s next? Kentucky has made prior contact with the 4 C’s we’ll talk about today, but it might be too late to get in seriously with a couple of them. First up: (#11) 5⭐️ Paul Osaruyi. (AZ) 6’9 220lb. Breakdown: Has the highest ceiling of any of the bigs. A+ Motor/Athlete. Elite rebounder, always in the right position. Extremely versatile defender. Defends the perimeter, the paint, the rim. Very high defensive IQ. His offense is still coming along. He’s got good hands, he makes tough catches in traffic under the rim, he catches plenty of lobs, and he’s an elite rim runner who can catch and put the ball on the floor in the open court. Solid handle when not being pressured, but he doesn’t have the best footwork right now,’ so he’s limited in the post with the ball in his hands. Has a decent enough jumper he can face up, even pop out and knock one down, slips really well off screens into a push shot. But once the tools are sharpened, once he gets with some elite coaching, like I said could be the highest ceiling of all them. Very versatile offensive potential. Reclass was talked about early, still could be a possibility as well. Something to watch as Kentucky just recently extended an offer. West Virginia, Houston, Arkansas, Kansas, BYU, thought to be the main schools right now. WVU has strong ties. #BBN #KentuckyBasketball

🎙️ Charles Lee on LaMelo Ball last night: "We're always marveled by his shot-making, but what continues to impress me—and what continues to help our team get better and better—is that he's trusting the pass. He's really maximizing everyone around him. He's making them better." "We see (him maturing) defensively. I'm not even sure how many steals he had or anything like that, but he had one blocked shot... just not giving up on plays is the biggest thing. Not always perfect, but not giving up on plays and trying to find a competitive advantage in anything he does defensively." "Our guys rally around that. It becomes contagious as soon as he does something competitively defensively. We all are even more locked in on the game plan because he's our emotional leader. When he's playing well, when he's playing that hard, it gets us all going."

Nick Saban explains the difference between a mistake that deserves getting chewed out and one that deserves encouragement “I always sort of had a lot of respect for the fact that any player that’s a competitor wants to do well. And I think when you start with that, you have a better perspective because you look at things from their perspective, not your perspective. And I think that’s very helpful.” “Sometimes when guys are not doing intangible things, whether it’s giving effort or focusing or making mental errors or things that they can actually control, that is something that you can’t tolerate. And you really want to maybe sometimes get after a guy a little bit for it.” “But when guys are doing those things and just not having success, I think that’s when you want to pat them on the back and get them to believe in themselves and have an understanding if they continue to do things the right way, they will eventually have success.” “And every player’s different. Sometimes you got guys that are obsessive-compulsive type personalities that are really hard on themselves, and I don’t think you need to get on those guys because they’re already getting on themselves.” “Then you have other guys that may not be self-starters, and you got to push them a little bit more to get them to be what they’re capable of being. I think all those things were factors in how you kind of approach a player and try to get him to be the best he can be.” “I always tried to focus on the individual and not look at it like one size fits all, and try to take the best approach with that particular guy to help him have success.”

The president has asked us to do that. We're running the traps and confirming that's happened. This is really a congressional thing, and ensuring that Türkiye has complied with American law so they can get the F-35s. We will announce that when we have- Trump: Erdogan's a man who, he's a little controversial, but I am too, uh. But I know him. I think he's a very good person. He's helped us a lot.

very well said by lando 👏🏻 🗣️: in your opinion, who has delivered the best performance in the first half, considering the opportunities and machinery each driver has had? lando: "i think we should probably all just say ourselves. i feel like you can't really compare these things. you can't really compare teams against teams. i think you have to say kimi as a complete- they have a great car and he's done an incredible job. he's been convincingly beating his teammate every single weekend. so when you're talking about a championship, you have to give credit to kimi. but when i have a good car like today, i feel like no one's going to beat me. so yeah, we'll probably all say each other [ourselves], but it just depends on how good the car is and things like that. i think you have in front of you three of the best drivers in formula 1. there are still plenty of others, but it's impossible to really compare these things. everyone sat here is doing an incredible job and probably getting the most out of their car. that's all you can really ask for.”

John Lynch explains why the 49ers didn't address the offensive line earlier than the 7th round of the draft: "We we're able to do that with Connor Colby, but there were a number of times that we were interested in adding and it just didn't come our way. And you’ve gotta stay true to where you have guys graded, not take guys just to take them but to take guys that you're interested in at that point. And it just never really aligned. We were happy to add Colby. We think he's a really good scheme fit. Great thing about Iowa is they run a very similar, they run a lot of outside zones, so you get to see a guy like him do things that we do and he does them well. So, we’re happy to add that. But there were a number of times Kyle and I were talking about that at the end that just didn't align, one of those deals and you don't want to force things. So, it wasn't our time for that."

Jason Kidd on the “Fire Nico” chants during the final stretch of Monday’s game: “We can only hope that we don’t have to go through that again because it was a little disrespectful because the guys are playing hard…With that chant during when we’re shooting free throws, it’s very disrespectful. But understanding they got their point across, the fans, but we have to move forward…Again, we have a lot of guys that are in street clothes. We got over, I think 100 million dollars sitting on the sideline…I would hope that we start to get a little credit for that because these guys, they can hear those things and they feel really disrespected. It’s hard to keep guys here in this league when they start to think that the home team is not home and becomes a visiting place, and so hopefully that changes tonight.”

Chamath describes Donald Trump: "I've seen some of the most incredible survivors, they have that one skill." "Oh, he's really inspiring. I mean, I have to say here that in my limited interactions with him, he's really curious. He's really smart. His intuition is off the charts. I'll tell you a very specific example. Had a meeting with him, I had a complicated-" "What were you pitching him?" "It's not a pitch. I was just walking him through some structural issues in this specific case and electricity rates, and you know, the underlying reasons why, which have more to do with the utilities, data centers, water consumption, and then some structural decrease in Americans' electricity, right? It's like a 15-page deck, and he's one of these guys where he's listening, he'll scan it, he's scanning it while he listens to you, and then he goes right to the one thing. And I have a lot of respect for this because I've seen some of the most incredible survivors, the people that have that one skill. They can go in and go to that thing, that little detail, that thread and pull it. So my experience with him is quite impressive; when I anchor him to the other people I've been with, he's really up there."

How can we understand the power of ideology? Stephen Kotkin offers up NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani as an example: “So there's this young kid who's really adept at social media who just looks like he won the primary for a Democratic candidate for mayor in New York City. And one of the things he wants to do is freeze rents because he wants more affordable housing. So he's a complete idiot in terms of facts. The way to get more affordable housing is to build more housing. If supply massively increases and it exceeds demand, the price has to go down. It's proven again and again and again. And what rent control does or freezing of rent, it inhibits the building of new housing. Because who's going to build new housing when you can't make money off of it? Rent control is what produces the lack of affordable housing in the first place. So he sees what's the problem as the solution now. Now, is he a fool? No, he's a really bright guy. He's very well educated.”

Golfers... You have to be very careful when listening to tour players talk about their own feels & what they do during the golf swing Don't get me wrong, some are VERY good at explaining in detail what they are doing & feeling, but some don't actually have a clue. They are just VERY GOOD at golf & don't really know how they do it. This is a prime example where Tiger is saying he's not a "Spot Chipper", then on another video he says he likes hitting to a "Spot" So which one is it? Remember, these guys are ELITE at playing the game of golf & getting the ball in the hole in less shots than everyone else They are not always the best at accuratly articulating what they are really trying to do There was a video of Tiger a while back where he was saying the club head moves first in the golf swing... No it doesn't. There's a pressure shift into the trail side first... Tiger won with 4 different swings. He's just THAT GOOD We as coaches are the ones who explain things better than a tour pro. The tour pros job is to shoot low scores

Ben Shelton on his warm embrace with Frances Tiafoe after losing to him at the US Open, ‘It’s important to show it sometimes that you can be happy for a guy when they beat you’ “You just seemed really, really excited for Frances. What were kind of the emotions going through your mind when you met at the net and what did you guys chat about?” Ben: “Yeah, obviously I thought he played lights-out today. That was one of the things you've got to be happy for a guy and congratulate, especially a guy like him when he's playing the way he's playing. I think that it's important to show it sometimes that, you know, you can be happy for a guy when they beat you. Obviously there are some things I want to do better. I'm a competitor. I always want to win. But, you know, I've taken a few things from him in the past year, and I thought that he's always handled it well. You know, maybe not like a big embrace when we're on the court. But soon or right after it's like things are back to normal. But one of those cool environments in matches to be a part of. It didn't feel right to just go up with a negative look on my face, shake his hand and walk off the court, because he played some great ball today. I told him, you know, keep serving like that, keep returning like that, and see where this thing goes. Obviously he took me out here, so let's see what he can do.” “What do you mean when you say you're happy for him, especially a guy like that?The way he plays, the way the start of the season went? What did you mean by that?” Ben: “No, just a guy like that, how good of a guy he is, always smiling, not really ever a negative look on his face. One of those guys that's fun to be around in the locker room. You know, he's always cracking jokes. Even I beat him in the final of Houston, he's giving me shout outs in his post-match speech, just like a good guy. I didn't mean anything negative by it. Just a great guy, yeah.” ❤️ (via US Open Press)

I always want to win. But, you know, I've taken a few things from him in the past year, and I thought that he's always handled it well. You know, maybe not like a big embrace when we're on the court. But soon or right after it's like things are back to normal. But one of those cool environments in matches to be a part of. It didn't feel right to just go up with a negative look on my face, shake his hand and walk off the court, because he played some great ball today. I told him, you know, keep serving like that, keep returning like that, and see where this thing goes. Obviously he took me out here, so let's see what he can do.” “What do you mean when you say you're happy for him, especially a guy like that?The way he plays, the way the start of the season went? What did you mean by that?” Ben: “No, just a guy like that, how good of a guy he is, always smiling, not really ever a negative look on his face. One of those guys that's fun to be around in the locker room. You know, he's always cracking jokes. Even I beat him in the final of Houston, he's giving me shout outs in his post-match speech, just like a good guy. I didn't mean anything negative by it. Just a great guy, yeah.” ❤️ (via US Open Press)

Scottie Scheffler elaborated on the Bryson DeChambeau rule incident from Friday and echoed Harris English’s comments about Bryson always being on TV and camera angles being different to what’s happening: “No. I've been really focused on the tournament. I think that opens up a greater discussion that -- all I can really say is I think maybe we need to be a little bit more strict in the way that we are policing guys, but it's a little bit of a balance because you've got certain guys like a Bryson who every shot he hits is going to be shown on TV. When you have camera angles that are far away, things can look different than they do when you're right there. “We've done a good job of -- I don't know, I hate saying stuff out here because I don't want anything to get taken out of context. All I'll say is Bryson, I've known him for a long time, and he's a lot of things, but he's definitely not a cheater. I've never seen him cheat once, whether we were having a putting contest on the putting green or chipping contest, or anytime we played amateur golf, I never saw anything suspicious. “When you're watching him there from that camera angle, maybe he was a touch careless around his ball, but I don't think he did anything intentionally. “We've seen penalties happen with -- like you remember Jon Rahm a couple years ago at the Memorial when his ball moved in the rough, and it's like to the naked eye, can you really tell that? “I think sometimes it's just a difficult position in the game of golf. When I was growing up, if this was the line between things that were -- like if this was the line, here are the rules and this was the right side of it and this is when you're doing things against the rule, you always tried to stray really far that way. I feel like at times, sometimes you see players maybe push it a little bit further than they should. “I think we need to kind of get back to the traditions of the game and maybe we do need to police things a little bit more stricter in the game. “But like I said, it's a tough line to kind of cross. So that's why it's hard for me to say anything like this. Bryson is a guy that I've known for a really long time. Like I said, he's not a cheater.” The Open

Sung Si Kyung's comment about Cha Eunwoo: “Today I'm going to sing ‘Every Moment of You’ with #ChaEunwoo. I felt it was a shame not to perform it at the Golden Disc Awards and many people asked for it as well. Luckily, Eunwoo wanted to sing this song with me, which I'm really happy about! We ended up singing it together. I'm grateful that he took the time out of his busy tour schedule to sing it. You really have to see Eunwoo in person. As I always say, seeing Cha Eunwoo in real life is really enjoyable. Not only does he have good looks, but he also has a great personality, is considerate of others, has a warm heart, treats juniors and seniors well, is physically fit, has a handsome face, strong stamina, exercises well, and he's also good at acting. Right? Since he's a singer, he also sang this song well. Thank you so much. When I see him in person, I don't feel jealous, but rather, "Wow, I'm really impressed and grateful". He follows my lead well and participates sincerely, which I'm really grateful for. It feels a little awkward and uncomfortable to do things with popular juniors, but I'm grateful for his participation...” 🔗 #차은우 #チャウヌ #车银优 #ชาอึนอู #車銀優

🗣️Ferran: Man, with Pedri, we have a really good relationship. We first got to meet each other in Valencia. I was in Valencia and he was in Las Palmas. Coincidentally, we happened to have the same representative, so we had the chance to get to know each other. Right from the beginning we built a really great relationship, and I think it's something that will last a lifetime, which is what matters most. In the end, when you have that kind of chemistry on a team, it's something that pays off and it’s noticeable not just on the field, but off it too. Back then, Pedri was above all a lot more shy and not as strong as he is now, you can definitely see he's evolved a lot. Right from the beginning he was a very sociable, very natural guy, and in the end, that's what I like about him the most. 🗣️Pedri: When Barça was trying to sign him, I kept calling him and trying to convince him to come because, honestly, he’s a guy I really like. And well, both on and off the field, you can see every day that we’re always together and have a perfect relationship.

Jason Tickled in the TICKLE CHAIR Next up on deck is Jason Tickless 🪶🪶🪶 Fetcon26 who is a baby bear that was brave enough to take a spin in my Tickle Chair. He saw the guys I demolished in my chair and still had the balls to jump in. You gotta have some BIG balls to do that, and he does. In fact, he got a little sassy with me in the beginning, but I got my ways of humbling guys REAL QUICK. I could tell that after I peeled of his drenched socks and dived into his soles that his feet were absolutely DRIPPING is sweat. Uh oh, is somebody nervous?? Good, he should be, because he's only at the beginning of a very long and BRUTAL punishment ahead of him. (I'm not kidding you when I say that this guy gets HUMBLED which you will see in the later upcoming parts)
