Henry Abbott just reported that Durant will likely sign with Goodwin. Did any of you hear the rumor about Goodwin having inappropriate relations (sexual in nature) with LeBron's mother back in the days? Keep up the discussions - makes this site even better. Thanks.

I had heard, somewhere can't remember now, but Durant was headed towards Bill Duffy...

Although Falk is influential, Neal is probably still a second-round pick to undrafted. I guess I got a little carried away in predicting Falk's influence. Jordan, you are probably right.

Thanks. Neal is playing well in Portsmouth but no way is he a first-round pick. Can Falk really manipulate the draft like that? Wes isn't getting the same cut from Rose now that CAA is involved. Huemann just left Fleisher for CAA - why? Lou Tucker uses Diddy to get kids. Gordon shouldn't let Tucker capitalize on him again like he did when he first delivered him to Ceisler. Falk will probably end up with Thornton, Hibbert, Hawes and Durant (draw parallels to what he did for MJ). Conley, Jr. is entering the draft with Oden. Tellem signed Acie Law. Who is going to sign the other PGs in the draft? Recruiting in any sport is about much more than selling yourself (it usually involves some buying as well). Ask your Florida boys, who is Happy Walters? Don't sleep on him. Thanks. Great posts recently, Darren. Thanks. Neal is playing well in Portsmouth but no way is he a first-round pick.

In football it is about selling yourself to the kid, his family, or college coach. In basketball it seems you have to sell yourself (and likely pay off) Worldwide Wes or other individuals like Mr. Tucker.

I have had the opportunity to watch Neal on several occasions as a Baltimore native, but believe that although he is extremely talented, he is probably a second-round pick. However, with the mouthpiece and reputation of Falk behind him, he will most likely find see himself drafted as a late first-round pick.
