Wow that is awesome Giff and Boat on the same court again!!!! Both were outstanding players at UConn and important cogs in the 2014 championship team.

I also guarantee both are living great lives as pro ballers in Europe.

Good stuff, Blades.

I know China pays well, but I'd much rather play in Europe if I had the choice.

Marcus Williams looks like he's been hanging out on a mountain since the Nets cut him.

thinking back, it still shocks me that MWilliams didn't made it in the NBA. I know the word was he was lazy in college, but man could he pass, decent size, etc...

 

[KhalidShockedTheWorld]

Marcus Williams was a poor athlete and he could not play really sloid D, and guys like that get exposed in the NBA. He was somewhat exposed as well by George Mason in the Elite 8 loss. He was one of the better passing point guards UConn has had.

 

[CaNOLEE]

Agree with Khalid on Williams. If you're going to be slow footed at PG, you better have great intangibles. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case with Marcus.

Nice to see the fellas still doing what they love and getting paid for it!!

Appreciate the pics Blades!

Good stuff! I wonder if Sterling Gibbs and Jeff Adrien like the food over in Hungary. My mother is Hungarian (was born there) and I grew up eating Hungarian food and must say as an adult I am not a fan of it. I would prefer playing in Italy or China or France or Spain as far as the dining options.

Phil Nolan in Denmark is probably eating way more fish than what he grew up eating in Wisconsin.

Hilton and Gavin probably eating some good sushi in Japan.

As far as Rashad in Israel his 3 point shooting is definitely Kosher! Hopefully he will meet a nice Jewish girl over there, settle down and have some kids because his pro career will not last forever. Even Khalid had to retire after all those Euro championships he won.

LOL! ...That's funny some funny sh%t, I think sometimes, the thought is that these guys are still 20 year olds on the prowl in college..not grown men trying to make a living.. But nice info from @GlobalHuskies that I thought I would share for this slow Husky BB week.
