The greatest motivating factor that’s gotten me to where I am today is… “My grandmother. She lives in Pensacola, Florida, and she was the one that raised me. I want to be able to move her away from there and have her come stay with me wherever I end up. That’s what I think about every time I step on the court and it keeps me grinding.”

I'm going even harder for this kid.

What was said on the hot Fiz Mic?

I couldn't pick up what Fiz was saying in that clip due to the background noise, besides "it not working out at his first destination". Can someone transcribe?

he is...berman says emanuel and says something about "do you still feel there's so much talent there ?" and fiz says something like "yeah. yeah. i see a guy who was drafted high in the lottery, it didn't work out in his first destination". i know because that's what i told berman to ask....wait....what ? :lol:

I was thinking he was most likely talking about Henzonja or Mudiay, it was at SL practice so he could of been talking about someone on the SL team which Henzonja obviously isn't on.

Rough transcription
Fizdale: It's just been fun watching these young athletes fly around.
Berman: Just to go back to Emmanuel, you said some ______ things. Do you still feel there is so much talent there that is still not..
Fizdale: Yeah, Yeah, It's not for me to judge. I see a guy that was drafted high in the lottery that didn't work out in his first destination....

Where as Jeff never really gave me the impression he cared all that much since he would smirk and chuckle after losses or anytime he was questioned about the under performing.

That smirk made him look like a smiling sack of shyt.

I'd love to see a similar contract for Mitch.

Robinson looking good in summer league today, real nice defense. We might have got real lucky in round #2.

Magic Johnson is my new hero

camillepd · Post #817 » by **camillepd** » Sun Jul 8, 2018 12:03 am

Magic made a big mistake. Should have kept his promise and drafted Robinson at #25.

Mitchell getting signed after this game lol.

They should probably Mitchell the Gobert treatment and send him to the G-league for like 8-10 games then bring him to the big club.

I understand it's just one summer league but dude hadn't played in OVER A YEAR and was simply the 3rd best player on the floor. I was watching and salivating at the thought of him getting stronger and having KP alongside. DAMN!!!!!!
