    If were gonna accelerate it, we're going too, but if we can't, we have to do things the right way.

    Sounds like someone who tried to get George or Butler.

    Started with "Man, we really wish Tyler Lydon was there at 26... Zach Collins the Zag who played less than 20 mpg and an Orangeman in the same draft... would've been great"

    Neil was pumped to get Zach Collins, like legitimately excited. He honestly believes Collins could be something special.

    I like what Neil said about bringing in guys that are competitors. You want to root for guys who are up for a fight/scrap!

    Great vid! My favorite part- both of these big guys are "mentally tough". Lol. Guess they're not gonna make that mistake again....

    Also sounds like they didn't go after a certain knick player because of Lillard/CJ voicing concerns about locker room issues.

    He does his job well! Well, at least the sales aspect of it. I'm pumped after watching the presser. But I gotta watch some video and read some articles about Collins/Swanigan. Totally clueless about whatever hardship Neil was referring to that helped shape/strengthen Swanigan (?)...
