Brook sounds like a little kid in a candyshop. :lol:

He is using so many superlatives to describe how excited he is to learn from the vets.

Lopez is giving all of the right answers.

The two things he wants to improve the most: rebounding and defense

What nickname he chose for his nickname jersey: 'Brooklyn' because he likes having the team name on the front and back.

My thoughts about Lopez have always oscillate between moderately annoyed and being able to put up with his weaknesses to outright disgust and a desire to have him immediately traded. :lol:

However, this past season he wore down my rage a bit, and now (if he improves in those areas) I can actually see myself liking him.

KG: “We need to get another ring. That’s the only reason we went to Brooklyn."

"THE ONLY REASON."

KG: said conversation with Kidd about not playing back-to-backs “didn’t go too well.” Said he doesn’t want to be “told anything.” (/laughs)

KG: "I don't have an ego, mama"

KG is hilarious

Just tuned in with the Garnett portion. Was anything said prior to that about Williams' ankle?

Pierce: " I have been wearing Brooklyn gear for weeks now"

PIerce: "Me and Kevin haven't been injury prone in our career. We have to do the little things to keep it that way"

Pierce: Two New York teams that are contenders, so It's going to cause friction. Two teams trying to obtain the same goal. It's going to be fun"

Pierce: "I don't care about winning the Atlantic Division. I came here to win a championship. I don't even want to see a banner if we win the division. Expectations has grown."

Pierce: "This franchise has made the transition to New York so smooth. Helping me with finding a place to live, schools, hospitals, where to eat. I'm much more comfortable knowing this franchise has my back."
