I thought baze was superb. All the ingredients for a perfect modern day 4 are there. and all in a package that looks straight out of the 70's!

24/9/7 would be the perfect stat line for shai this season. Hopefully on just slightly better efficiency

I've never seen a mullet on a black guy before. It's like when Ron Swanson got corn rows in parks and rec. I'm not sure what to make of it.



The jheri curl could be sort of a black mullet. But this guy has what appears to be almost more like an afro that has been cut into the shape of a mullet. Its very original.

He didn't have a great stat line but going back and looking at some of these passes, Theo makes are really impressive. He's had significantly less practice time with the team that most rookies this year. He looks much more comfortable than his counterpart, Killian Hayes.

Ya it almost looked like a man bunn at times. It really is one of the great side stories of the season.

And if ever there was a season to have fun side stories, this is it.

Didn't get to watch the first half, but I thought SGA really struggled in the second half on both offense and defense. Had some plays where he got stripped, didn't switch quickly enough or was out of position. He missed free throws down the stretch to leave the door open for Charlotte to make a come back. Of course, he saved the day by hitting a long 2 with ~3 seconds left, but he looked pretty rough.
