I wanted to see how B-Rob was faring overseas so I tried to reach out to those near his camp and I guess he's doing real well. He's quickly become acclimated to being outside of the US(well he had no choice) and has also quickly adjusted to the international game.

He has played in a few pre-season tournaments in Europe (Ukraine and a few other places) winning tourney MVP in a couple of them. Every European team has American players with names that we'd all recognize, for they were all high caliber players that just missed out on the NBA, as did Roberts. I found a couple articles on his last game going up against Carlos Arroyo(Pistons, Mavs,etc). There were a few NBA "people" there and it was just a preseason tourney. Let's hope he continues his high level of play.

Good find. Thanks for that. It's nice to see roberts succeeding over there. Hopefully that can translate to ending up in the nba sometime soon.

Good for Brian. Perhaps he can stop off at the Wailing Wall the night before the first Xavier game and slip a note in saying something like: "Dear God, please give the Musketeers food poisoning tomorrow morning as that may be the only way my alma mater can beat those B******s."

Was that tongue-in-cheek?

That clip looks like Cordiero in JC playing in front of a Deveroes crowd.

I love JB but are those guys actually making money??

I know, how are they making money? There is no one in the stands.

Pay to play.
The Gym looked liked Fordham.
What are the Techno Twins (Claude and Veter) numbers.

In B-robs pictures they were at least playing defense. Binnie looked like a pickup game - no defense and throw up a shot. If he is getting paid more power to him.

I always wondered how to spell "Roberts" in Hebrew.
