Nurideen Lindsey - PG - Redlands CC - Philadelphia, PA - ST. JOHN'S

Redslope, can you post a link to the article in the Post please?

Sorry Poison but technology challenged.  if you go to the NY Post website and click on archieves, you can get it by asking for steve lavin articles in sports this month and you will get Lenn Robbins article on the 16th.  GG has already visited Cin. and was going to Washington last week, then we get him to visit this week.  As Lenn says Steve is not going to be stopped by cancer.  Is this also a challenge to the Kentucky rumor monger and what he did to Louie?

Poison I think the article redslope is refering to was just posted on the gods gift thread

Lindsey ranked no. 2 for incoming JUCO recruits.  Based on where they project in terms of success at the next level.  He is at no. 2 and GG at 24.

Nurideen Lindsey, St. John’s, PG – The nation’s second-ranked junior college prospect spent last season at Redlands Community College in El Reno, Okla. Prior to that, Lindsey spent three years away from basketball following the murder of his younger brother and the death of his best friend from cancer. Lindsey is a point guard who averaged 38 points as a high school junior in Philadelphia.

Kind of odd word to use to describe actual playing - maybe Nuri's demeanor, but not ballin' - I too hope he meant doing good....

un·flap·pa·ble (n-flp-bl)
adj.
Persistently calm, whether when facing difficulties or experiencing success; not easily upset or excited.

Dont know if we should be upset or excited now.

C'mon now.
Means the brother is cool on the court. Mistakes to a minimum. Not turnin it over. Keepin his teammates in check. Not lettin peeps get by him on D.

So is he all caught up on his classes?  Is he taking classes in Philly to finish catching up so he has the 3 yrs of elibility left and is ready come Fall?

C'mon now.

You guys are analyzing the word unflappable.

Huh.

Rothstein's obviously paying him a compliment.

C'mon now.

You get all this from unflappable?

Unflappable + Basketball....what players does that immediately conjure up for you?  I read the term, and immediately thought of Oscar Robertson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar....and Jerry West/Walt Frazier head to head.   Yes, I am an old coot....

So is he all caught up on his classes?  Is he taking classes in Philly to finish catching up so he has the 3 yrs of elibility left and is ready come Fall?

I don't know Moose, but he has been tweeting about being in NYC his future home and that hes at Rucker park today.  Doesn't seem he's all too worried about being qualified. 

Anyone going up to Rucker Park to see him play? Wish I was in the city to check him out. Would love to hear some analysis besides what we heard from posters after watching a grainy video feed of one game. Dave, KOB, Choz, Fordham, Moose, anyone?
