From what I have heard, Q is finishing up a fine season in Belgium. He's engaged to be married and still has eyes on making the League. Wouldn't rule it out next season.

On the other hand, Hancock is probably just being lazy somewhere. Too bad he didn't care enough to try to play at the next level. He was a talented player that didn't capitalize on it.

I thought I read somewhere that Hancock is playing overseas someplace. Not true?

Lazy?

Post by DiamondM »

And if Damon is not playing overseas, that makes him "lazy?" I fail to see how making a choice to stay in the states and use an SMU degree to pursue another career is "lazy."

Damon was one of the laziest human beings on earth when he was here. That is an absolute fact. Probably the main reason why he isn't playing anywhere.

He appears to have played for Telindus Oostende in Belgium. His team lost today in the semi-finals of the playoffs, 74-67 (it appears to be a best of three series). I didn't see him in the top 10 lists for the league, but that doesn't mean that the site is accurate. I've found mistakes on it before. On another site I found him as 8th in scoring with 16.7, 4.8 rebounds per game, 1.8 assists. Like I said-- may not be accurate.

I hope he's playing somewhere, and working hard. I don't know the guy, but I liked the way he played: hard. And he has the physical tools to play. Whether he backs that up remains to be seen, but he's a big guard with good quickness and he's strong going to the hole. I hardly think he'll unseat Jason Kidd or Baron Davis any time soon, but in the right situation, I still think he could be a valuable role player.

Hancock

Post by TUfan »

It took me a little longer, but I found that Damon last played (in Europe anyway) for a team in Finland-- Porvoon Tarmo. However, I didn't see him listed on this years roster. Sorry. :( That's the best I can do.
