Jabari Parker is a lock to be chosen in the top 3 of the upcoming NBA draft, and may even be the first overall pick. Judging by his comments this week on the Dan Patrick show he is happy the Knicks have no chance to draft him. Jabari speaks on among other things, the potential new rule of players having to stay in college at least two years and what made him decide to enter the draft instead of return to Duke. The best part however is when he gets compared to Carmelo ( which he loves ) and Dan Patrick tries to take a playful jab at Melo by telling Jabari “but you pass” to which Parker responded “but I have a team” lol. The kid was busy all basketball season but still paid enough attention to know the Knicks had nobody.

(Photos) NFL: WOW, Loss By Duke In NCAA Tournament Almost Costs Falcons Roddy White Big Time
Better watch what you casually say sometimes. Falcons Roddy White is known to talk s**t on twitter about sports alot. This time he is regretting it. Earlier in the week he told a fan on twitter he would give them front row seats at the 50 yard line for the entire season if Mercer beat Duke. Well a funny thing happened today, Mercer BEAT Duke! Twitter immediately called him out on the bet and wondered what he would say. He was quiet for a while, but then he owned up to it , well somewhat. Two tickets front row at the 50 yard line for an entire season would of easily cost White over $15,000 if not more. Steep price to pay for running your mouth on twitter. Hit the jump to see what he said.

Some people might take this as being disrespectful by doing it on the court, but the way the kids from Mercer are feeling today you can’t tell them nothing, nor should you. They just pulled off the biggest win in school history and hit the nae-nae like they were in the club.
