We call 'em loosie's, bro.

Du-rag, another loosie behind the ear, black wifebeater, camo shorts, and unlaced Timbs.


Ohhh, he almost had it. Close but no cigar .. er .. cigarillo, ma$e. (Swisher Sweet, of course.)

Only ones wearing Timbos down here playing ball are the fake-arse Nor'easterners who actually were born in like North Carolina but somehow have a Yankee accent. Explain that ta me.

He was highly skilled though and had a can’t miss turnaround. Just a sweaty wife beater and sweat alki out and it stunk. Good times tho

Sorry, I was projecting. Either Nike slides with socks or white “tennis shoes” then.

You know how I feel ... but I'm a Hawks fan and I'm used to us passing over the in-town guys. I'm rooting for him making MIN's decision to trade Wiggins even easier.

Wait, didn't this thread have a poll for our preferred draft pick that didn't even include Trae? You call that successful! :lol:

FTR, I never added a poll to the thread. That was the mods.



Also, the poll was about who we wanted to draft with a potential #1 draft pick.

...last I checked, Trae Young was drafted at #5.

But do you think Okogie fits as well or better than Huerter now or not because of the intent to shoot threes like crazy.

He fits more next to Rayford 'cause he can guard plus can hit open shots and 'get his' as needed off the bounce. Whiff by Slink.

Oh ok...just wasn’t sure if Okogie was a good outside threat.

I’ll be sure and contribute less next year! Wait, did YOU already start the 2019 draft thread? If YOU did then YOU will prolly end up getting the credit.

Question: If jamaal is in the woods (goes there from time to time) and pats himself on the back, can you hear it?
