    I just feel like they have been keeping it on the downlow. Like maybe nobody has mentioned it ever for a reason?

    The only way this trade goes down is if no one knew. Like Doc would willingly reunite for AAU teammates.

    Question, were they ever roommates doe? You know, like Colt McCoy and Jordan Shipley were roommates too if my sources are telling me right. Also, did you know Chase Budinger was an Olympic class volleyball player? Small world...

    I will be back to see more phenomenons like this in this thread.
