Wednesday Morning Dump

Oh damn, look at that, the NBA draft is tomorrow. If the Washington Wizards don't take John Wall, I swear to God, I quit.

- The draft hasn't even begun and already Mark Titus is already off the board. No seriously, Mark "The Shark/Every benchwarmer's hero/Mr. Club Trillion" got drafted by the Harlem Globetrotters. This has got to be a first. I mean, a white guy on the Globetrotters? Maybe the Generals have a chance now. The Globetrotters also selected Montana's Anthony Johnson -- the kid that scored 34 second half points to carry the Grizzlies to the NCAA Tournament -- and Johnson's wife, who played for the Montana women's team.

- A few days ago, Jeff Goodman, Gary Parrish, and a few other writers had a Twi-bate over DeMarcus Cousins. Is he a better prospect than Derrick Favors? Is he worth the risk of the third or fourth pick? We linked a Jay Bilas article Monday saying he wouldn't pick Cousins. Matt Norlander and Mike DeCourcy both disagree.

- Rush the Court makes a very good point on coaches who complain about the one-and-done rule.

- Andy Katz gets answers on Willie Warren and Avery Bradley from the best source -- their coach.

- A few months ago, there were some rumblings about the selection process for the McDonald's all-american team and how they tend to select players headed to established institutions (Duke, UNC, UCLA) instead of the most talented players, putting unneeded pressure on some of these prospects. Is that what happened to Taylor King?

- Luke Winn, who is always a good read, on new Wake Forest coach Jeff Bzdelik. The story about how he managed to hang on to Wake's recruiting class is pretty interesting.

- Everything I've read about James McAdoo makes me want to root for this kid. Yesterday, we wrote on his decision to finish out his high school career. Apparently, he made that decision on a 12-day humanitarian trip to Nicaragua. Helluva basketball player, but he seems like a helluva kid as well.

- Good read from Kevin Armstrong on Lance Stephenson.

- Wizards insiders provide perspective on John Wall's future in D.C.

- Hot 2011 prospect Remi Barry will choose his collegeiate future next week

- Will Andy Rautins hear his name get called? Probably not

- Chad Ford tries to explain what the heck is going on with former Duke/Memphis guard Elliot Williams

- Fordham hires former St. Peter's assitant/ex-Seton Hall star John Morton

- Kansas fans are not buying the whole "college sports have been saved!" theory
