    COLORADO basketball Postgame Quotes Colorado Buffaloes vs. Oregon State Beavers, Coors Events Center, Boulder, Colo. (January 2, 2014) Colorado Head Coach Tad Boyle General “Good win. Welcome to Pac‐12 conference play. Nothing is going to be easy, and I think anyone that saw the game tonight – certainly in person – knows the talent and skill that Oregon State has. We beat a good team tonight. They are much better than their record, and with [Eric] Moreland back, they’re a different animal. They’re going to be good once he [Moreland] gets in the fold. This was his first game back. [Devon] Collier is a beast down low, Roberto Nelson is one heck of a player and Moreland is good. They just keep coming at you with athletes off the bench. It’s a good win against a quality opponent, and we did what we had to do. The best thing is we won when we didn’t shoot the ball well. We talk about defense and rebounding being the cornerstones of our program. Tonight’s a good example of why that is and our guys did what they had to do.” On Offensive Execution “It was okay. We just didn’t make a lot of shots, and they’re long and they’re athletic. It’s kind of like playing against Syracuse’s zone, not that I’ve played against that. It’s been a few years as a coach, but they’re so long and they’re so athletic, they cover the ground quickly. We didn’t shoot the ball well from three, but I thought in the first part of the second half, we got the ball inside at the end of the shot clock.

  • Angelo Russell Traded to Warriors
    Former OSU Standout D’Angelo Russell Traded To Warriors Instead of losing superstar forward Kevin Durant for nothing, the five-time reigning Western Conference champion Warriors will add All-Star guard D’Angelo Russell in a sign and trade. Golden State and Brooklyn have agreed on a sign-and-trade, sending D’Angelo Russell to the Warriors on a four-year, $117M maximum contract, league sources tell ESPN. — Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) July 1, 2019 While Durant is teaming up with three-time All-NBA center and long-time friend DeAndre Jordan and two-time All-NBA point guard Kyrie Irving in Brooklyn, the Warriors did not want to walk away empty handed. The Golden State front office worked with Brooklyn to acquire Russell, whom the Nets could no longer afford with the addition of its All-NBA trio. The Warriors will reportedly add Russell and fellow guards Treveon Graham and Shabazz Napier, sending Durant, who may miss most or all of the 2019-20 season recovering from surgery on a ruptured Achilles, to Brooklyn. Given that two-time MVP point guard Steph Curry is already on a max contract and two-time All-NBA shooting guard Klay Thompson signed a five-year, $190 million contract, Golden State could not bring in Russell on the four-year, $117 million contract he agreed to without clearing cap space. In order to free up enough space to bring in Russell, the Warriors traded former NBA Finals MVP Andre Iguodala to the Grizzlies along with future draft picks. Golden State is trading Andre Iguodala to the Memphis Grizzlies, league source tells ESPN.

  • Cleveland Cavaliers: Could Derrick Williams Be a Long-Term Answer?
    Cleveland Cavaliers: Could Derrick Williams Be A Long-Term Answer? Author : Robert D. Cobb Former No.2 overall pick in the 2011 NBA Draft in Derrick Williams has not even been a member of the defending NBA champion Cleveland Cavaliers, yet he may possibly be a long-term solution. Williams, who was signed on a 10-day contract by the Cavaliers before their 118-109 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder on February 9th, scored 12 points in 22 minutes while going a perfect three-of-three from the field. 1 / 3 The 6’8 235-pound swingman from Arizona followed up a solid debut with another strong effort in scoring seven points in 21 minutes of action during the Cavs 125-109 win over the visiting Denver Nuggets. In two games with the Wine and Gold, Williams has averaged near double figures with 9.9 a game, which combined with his open-court athleticism, imposing physicality and ability to attack the rim could prove to be a boon and a sneaky good pick-up for the champions are are in desperate need of big athletic bodies who can defend, score and counter the likes of Golden State and their length and up-tempo style of play. Minnesota. Sacramento. New York. Miami. Cleveland.
