Nice three piece combo by Bam topped off with a spiffy pocket square.

This is our version of Warriors basketball, particularly if we can ultimately start Monk with Kemba, playing Nic at the 3 and develop Frank into a true stretch 4.
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

I liked the contrasting, but not garish, vest.

Why would we trade our best young player before we even know if Monk can play in the NBA? You do know we need more than one player at each position.

My wish list for 31 is..
1. OG -no way he falls, but I didn't think Malik would either
2. Terrence Ferguson-
3. Frank Jackson
4. Josh Hart

Lamb is 25. Do we still call him a young player?

Ever since when is 25 not young?

25 is middle-aged . I think 24 and under is young, maybe 23 and under for upside.

18-23 young
24-30 middle age
Over 30 old

Lamb has apparently been busting his ass in the Hornets facility all summer. I can't wait to see if it makes a difference. He needs to make a jump in some area - handles, defense or 3pt shooting. He can't just continue to be decent in a bunch of areas. He has to carve out a specific role on the 2nd unit.
