I like that. No news on the buyout from Estudiantes. But, perhaps there's still plenty of time.

All of them had great personalities. Bebe is taking the responsibility of being a role model for Bruno VERY seriously. Didn't even want to take a pic of us in front of a club, we had to angle it so the background was just the street. Super excited for these guys before I met em, and after I did, I'm 100% certain Bruno is gonna be a star. Heads in the right place and definitely has all the physical tools.

Where'd you meet them Any other details?


Got a pic with them. You can check it out on my instagram @macamatics. Too lazy to post the pic from my phone.

I'm 6'3 and they make me look like a little kid. Not only that but their shoulder width is incredible. DeAndres frame and Brunos seem to be double mine.

I met them in Vancouver. . I saw they were here and knew they'd end up on granville so I was just waiting for em to show up once I got to work.

I yelled at bruno and said I was excited for him to be here. Then I looked at bebe and said "**** I forgot he doesn't speak English. " I asked to take a pic with just bruno and Bebe and told DeAndre to take the pic.. he was a little chapped about it. They asked where they could find some girls but in a place with no drinking. So I asked a good looking Asian chick to take the pic and then walked away so they could keep wheeling her. (They didn't even really try even though I set them up so beautifully).

Bebe found me and walked across the street and asked me for some cab numbers cuz they wa ted to go to the hotel and change into better clothes since they were dressed suoer cas. The other guys wandered over and Bebe pulled me aside and was super serious about explaining how he's gonna be an awesome role model for Bruno and that he had a reputation for partying so he knew what mistakes to teach the rook to avoid.

You could tell Bruno wasn't super comfortable but he warmed up a bit and was smiling and gave me daps before leaving. Deandre obviously wasnt stoked to be talked to a random dude but he was still nice about it. All 3 are awesome guys. Can't wait to see em play.

This is a former all star, also was the 2nd best scorer on a team that went to the finals, if he's even 80% as good as Lewis, I think everyone should be more than thrilled, with the 20th pick.


I have high expectation for Bruno :D

For the amount of they seem to be spending hanging out together, I think he's becoming like a big brother to him.

Mind he lives alone since he was 16 in Spain. While he has no NBA/American(or Canadian) experience, he lives in on foreign country for 6 years. Surely it is a nice live experience, which can help Bruno, beside the language.

not saying he can't help bruno. i'm sure he has a lot of life experience. i just mean he's still a kid… and kids still make mistakes.

Can Daniels even be considered a rook, if he isn't gonna play for us this year? I think we already filled all of our roster spots with the Cherry signing.

DeAndre looks 6'5-6'6 here. I thought he was meant to be 6'9, like Bruno. :-?
