If I had a nickel for every White shooter with a family obsessed with the letter K.... I'd have 2 **** nickels.

Not much but still freaking weird.

He's wearing that hat, but we will see if it lasts until tomorrow.


Ace stood out. Rejected Daryl and Daryl caved.

You have to face the facts. They didn’t want him. What in Daryl’s history tells you he caved? lol

Kon is a really good fit with all the length with Lamelo at #1 and Brandon Miller at #3. They also have a lob threat in Mark Williams to take pressure off for Kon in the paint.

Yeah. They would have announced the deal if done beforehand, but they could still listen to offers. However, you imagine best offers were likely submitted.
