Kris Joseph

Ray,

Thanks agin for all the hard work in putting this together.

What actually happened with Kris and the Senior men’s team this summer? His first tweet seemed disparaging of the program but then I heard that he tweeted about being excited about team Canada for next year. Will he be Canada’s future starting three or will he be a political no show ala Magliore?

I think ...

it was a political no show for Kris but he does seem genuinely looking forward to playing for Team Canada at some point and I think he’s leaning towards the Olympics in 2012. I hope he’s the starting three but we’ll have to see what takes place next summer. I have a feeling that if Leo is the coach, and no offense to Leo, Joseph may not suit up. But that’s just my feeling.
