"How do we best get this rebuild off the ground?"

"Well, it's kinda obvious. With more players that look like Cody."

"Brilliant. But with more hair."

"Yes! With more hair."

I imagine this is the conversation that happened just before they ushered in the police line-up of middling rejects from which they chose Thomas Welsh.

Si we could have signed Joakim Noah to add some strength, but we signed a worse version of Cody Zeller instead?

Why would Joakim Noah want to play for this team?

It’s just a exhibit 10. So I’m relieved.

Because we’re the only tea giving him a contract.

I read recently something about Noah. A NFL player gave him the advice to accept any contract and try to shine somewhere, wherever it is. Don’t chase the light, be the light, whatever the team.

From Wikipedia:

Twin Beaks is the American mystery horror drama show starring Cody Zeller and Thomas Welsh

The Twin Beak's uncanny tone, supernatural elements, and campy, melodramatic portrayal of eccentric characters also draw on American soap opera and horror tropes. Like much preceding Charlotte Hornet's work, Twin Beaks is distinguished by surrealism, offbeat humor, and distinctive cinematography.
