I graduated Penn a year before JA and got to watch him for four years. Obviously, the competition in the Ivy League isn't exactly the ACC, but he was clearly head and shoulders above the rest of the league. He is exactly the type of guy that CBS will love. He's a good "fundamentals" guy and he worked his butt off. He and Matt Maloney, who also went to the NBA, were probably a Top-10 backcourt. Our problem was that we had a 6'7" center.

As long as he's not related to Ray Allen, I'm good with him.  ;D
There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, 'Thy will be done,' and those to whom God says, 'All right, then, have it your way.'

You don't have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body.
