EYE OF THE TIGER BABY Image

Love this stuff. Could be an inside joke between him and the FO from their meeting. Could be something TJ likes to say. Either way, there’s a cool avenue there for a nickname. Any suggestions?

Interestingly enough, Survivor’s 1982 single would end up BACK in the French top 200 charts both in 2011 and 2012. Wouldn’t be surprised if it was played before a lot of his basketball games as a kid. Hell, it’s the same lineup introduction song my middle school used.

If you’re in the large majority of us that don’t know his game well, I strongly encourage you to check out Sam Vecinie’s breakdown here: https://youtu.be/kpGyquTjAWg?si=2Rx_an06VOlUN5ngQ

This is the draft pick you make if you have confidence in your coaching staff. What are y’all’s thoughts about the newest Hornet?

I'll forestall judgement, as I (and most others?) know little of the man.

As long as we have more certainty regarding Lemelo, I can be happy with that.

San Antonio was reportedly after him too and likely to take him at 8.
