Armadillo: Saturday's six-pack

-- Yoenis Cespedes gets $75M for three years from the Mets; he can opt out next winter, but why would he want to?

-- Wright State 73, Valparaiso 62-- Big upset in Horizon League.

-- 227 baseball players made their major league debut last season.

-- Hornets 120, Magic 116 OT-- Kemba Walker had 40 points for the winners.

-- Warriors 122, Pacers 110-- Steve Kerr's return is a triumphant one.

-- I listen to stories about Jim Harbaugh recruiting and the thought crosses my mind, "Are we 100% sure this guy is sane?"

**********

Armadillo: Saturday's List of 13: Random stuff with weekend here......

13) Odd fact of the day: John Calipari doesn't go to his team's pre-game meals; he wants his team to relax, so he stays away from them while they're eating.

12) Cincinnati Bearcats will be doing an $87M upgrade of their basketball arena after the 2016-17 season; they haven't decided where they'll play games in 2017-18. Puts more pressure on the coach, having that much $$$ poured into the program.

11) Back in October, I was lucky enough to go to a UNLV basketball practice; they have a brand new practice facility, a building that is first class in every way. Took a lot of cash to build it and rich people (boosters) aren't patient, so when the Rebels lost five of six games around the holidays, coach Dave Rice was fired.

The night of the practice I went to, there was a booster event at the practice facility; they have these donor cords with check boxes for how much you'd like to contribute to the program, ranging from $3,000 to $20,000 with an "other" box. UNLV flies charter for conference road games, an important upgrade for the program, but it ain't cheap.

My point is this: teams like Cincinnati/UNLV get donors to provide enhancements for the programs, but those boosters want results. No results? Heads can roll.

10) Speaking of unhappy rich people, the Cavaliers' owner fired coach David Blatt, who was 30-11 this year and lost in NBA Finals LY, his first as an NBA coach. Only people in the Cavaliers' inner circle know what the deal is, so I'm not going to criticize the move, or praise it. Not many 30-11 coaches get fired, though.

9) Cavaliers went out of their way to say that Lebron James wasn't notified of Blatt's firing until it actually happened; I really don't believe that, and even if I do believe that, I'm not sure it would be smart to change coaches without talking to James first. Former NBA guard Tyronn Lue is the new coach, by the way.

8) Not sure if they still do it, but Princeton used to spend eight minutes of every practice working on all kinds of layups that they might take as a result of cuts made in their offense. as Watching Belmont play Thursday night; their bigger guys are good at using the basket for protection from more athletic shot blockers on reverse layups.

7) From 2005-08, Marist went 37-17 in MAAC with Matt Brady as coach; Brady moved on to James Madison. since then, Marist is 27-102 in MAAC games.

6) Steve Kerr came back to the Warriors' bench last night; Jason Kidd is coming back from back surgery next week. Milwaukee is 8-7 under interim coach Joe Prunty sduring Kidd's absence.

5) Bob Huggins has been basketball coach at West Virginia for nine years; during that time, the school has had five school presidents and three athletic directors. Seems to me that five school presidents in nine years is an awful lot.

4) Houston Rockets put Andre Drummond on foul line 36 times in Detroit's 123-114 win in Houston the other night- he was 13-36, the most foul shots any NBA player has ever missed in one game. Very discouraged to see shooting that bad.

3) Mike Vrabel is the linebackers' coach for the Texans; he turned down a chance to be Chip Kelly's defensive coordinator in San Frasncisco. Interesting decision.

2) New Orleans Pelicans' star Anthony Davis stands to lose a potential $23M in contract incentives unless he makes all-NBA this season, which is unlikely. Not getting voted to the All-Star team makes the all-NBA thing the deciding factor.

1) Good luck to the selection committee for the NCAA hoop tournament; what an odd season. Seeding is going to be impossible. Lot of guys on TV think mid-major teams like Valparaiso or Belmont will make lot of noise in March.

Hey Udog---Thanks for clearing that up--always thought you lived in upstate NY.

---Cavs are a big mess right now--Problem is Lebron thinks he's smarter than the coach. After the loss to the Warriors the other night, he was quoted as saying,'Well we had a game plan, but we didn't follow it'---correct translation---'I DIDN'T FOLLOW IT'. Pity poor Tyronn Lue--- He's got the toughest job in the NBA.

That happens a lot! Until Billy Donovan came to OKC, the Thunder had that problem with Russell Westbrook. It's a different story this year, though. He's near the top of the league's assist leaders list and has been all year. Now, if Billy can do something about KD trying to take over late in the game, the Thunder will be unstoppable.
