Goph - Jordan is technically part of Asia. The Sinai Peninsula is technically what divides Asia from Africa - since Jordan lies to the west, it is part of Asia.

It’s only us Americans who call that area of the world the “Middle East.”

I hope Jamal gets over there and puts ona a shooting clinic. That would certainly make things interesting as the Gophers enter their second season of “Tubby Ball.”

Good Luck Jamal! What a great opportunity to get international experience AND exposure.

Will someone tell Hoffarber to watch Manu Ginobilli of the SA Spurs play. Manu should be his role model. Besides looking similar, they have the same game except BH needs to play with Manu’s aggressiveness.

Good for Jamal, a person should be proud of their background and international ball is a great opportunity. This is a young man who has conducted himself with honor.

Actually I have met and worked out with jamal at lifetime fitness. I have played the game. You can put in all the hard work you want. I commend him for that, just like Dusty Rychart. Dusty is having a spectacular career in australia now. I am just being honest in that Jamal would have a hard time defending lebron and KoBE. Thank You.
