What would you try to do with AD, Jrue Holiday, and Zion if you were the Pelicans? Try to convince AD to stay and make a "big three?" Flip AD and/or Holiday for assets and then build around Zion? Which teams' assets (of the likely suspects, including the Lakers, Celtics, Knicks, or even the Clippers or perhaps Nuggets) would you want the most?

Here are some trade options...

Denver would net you Monté Morris.
 
I love a dramatic game, but, for the major sports, how many overtimes/extra innings/extra time is too much?

Baseball - after about 12-13 innings, I'm just ready for it to be over.
College football - usually about the 4th overtime, I'm ready for a winner
Soccer - players are usually tired and cramping after the first overtime and you wait on a set piece to win it
Basketball - I'm ok with 3-4, but that's usually because someone's hitting a clutch shot to push it to another OT
Hockey - after 2 extra periods, I'm ready for a winner

Scenario: Your SO is 8 months pregnant and you know it is going to be a son. A benefactor offers you $25,000 NET cash if you name the child one of the following:

Lil’ Swagger
SixtyNine
TacoBell
Mankind
Alabama

Do you take it and which name do you choose? If not, and you were forced to take it, which name would you choose?
 
Suppose you’re a filmmaker with a modest budget, and can produce a biopic about any prominent Iowa State sports figure, past or present, living or non-living. Assume you cannot choose Jack Trice (too much of a go-to choice). Who would it be, and who do you select to portray him/her? If that project fell through, who’s your second choice?

May is obviously a slow time for Cyclone news. What has been the biggest Iowa State related news story of the past decade to break in May?

Eustachy's Natty Lite photos popped into my mind but that's getting to nearly 20 years ago. Yikes.

Fred left in June so I'm pretty sure the rumor mill started spinning heavily by this time in May 2015.
 
Bolton visit and all is quiet. My working assumption is Bolton has pledged but we are just waiting for the OFFICIAL official word that LW is staying out. What is YOUR working assumption?
