He'll be at least the 11th SEC Player of the Year in a Celtics jersey.

We could use some competition at PF. Plus he can shoot the 3 ball. Kind of reminds me of Jamychel Green.

I would like to pre-emptively thank him for his services and wish him well in the future.

Agreed. He'll be good for the PF competition.
We needed another body at Camp.

I often judge our new guys by their anagrams cos I'm a nerd like that. NATTY ENEMA won't last long on this team. Kinda glad his parents didn't name him Yunte instead though.

I thought you said 13 for a minute and was driving myself crazy on the last one. Gave you the names to avoid passing that on, lol.

In my first draft of the post I had 8 or 9. The number kept growing.
