Check this out:

Rubio - Spain
Shved - Russia
AK47 - Russia
Pek - Montenegro
Barea - Puerto Rico

Ridnour - Washington, PAC10
Roy - Washington, PAC10
Budinger - Cali, PAC10
Lee - Cali, PAC10
Love - Oregon/Cali, PAC10
D-Will - Cali, PAC10

Amundson - Cali, other conference
Cunningham - Maryland, other conference
Stiemsma - Wisconsin, other conference

Adelman - Cali
Kahn - Oregon

So there's only 2 players on the team that aren't int'l. or born in one of 3 West Coast states. One of those players (Cunningham) was on the Blazers. The other (Stiemsma) is extremely white. This seems like a ridiculous way to build a roster. Why wouldn't you open yourself up to the full talent pool instead of cherry picking from certain areas, the PAC-10 no less. Come on, UCLA churns out good NBA players but the PAC-10 as a whole is pretty weak. At least they are openminded enough to be at the leading edge of obtaining international talent.
AWESOME post RH, Howl to you!

This is eye opening...The weirdest shit I've ever hear of. It just cannot be a coincidence. Kahn and Adelman (or maybe Taylor?) really are building their little club dynasty.

It's almost like they're running a college program where you have recruiting pipelines in certain areas. But Adelman hasn't been a HS/college coach in like 30 years. Maybe he's going senile :???

Have you guys seen the new page layout at CH? I'm not feeling it at all. It's hard to read and find stuff. Is all of SBnation like that now?

Well, we do know that at least a couple of guys drove Adelman insane last year and he decided he wasn't putting up with that crap again.

Personally, I say good for him for not just collecting a paycheck but bringing in the guys that he thinks he needs to be successful.

Sure there will be the normal injury factors, but this season is on Adelman to produce and show us what he's got in the old nut cup.

I've been in the camp that a lot depends on Ricky's return, since we all saw how dynamic he was to the team last year. But I am starting to switch and say there are enough improvements overall that Adelman has to be able to get what he needs from Luke and JJ to begin the season.

You got your team. Show us what you got, old man!

Yeah, they had this massive new redesign of all their sites. The main reason they are like that is to make their sites more "mobile friendly" since mobile visitors is a "growing market", rather than people visiting the site from desktops and laptops.

It totally sucks, I don't like it at all. :S :sick:

I hate change, so I dislike the SB Nation changes, whether they are really bad or not.

Looks like a newspaper, not a blog.

Brilliant! McHale only drafted players who he saw in the NCAA tourney live or in the Final Four, KAHNman only acquires guys from Europe or one of the 3 west coast states. Facts. howl.

Concur. I think it's dreadful. Just feels like a consistent, inefficient use of space. The blending of sidebars with core content makes things look extremely cluttered, like a collage you had to make for a junior high school US History class. Everything is way too big, which makes readability difficult.
