    If Flagg works hard enough, he could have a Delano Banton type of career.

    I'm excited to see Yang play, but I also expect there to be a very meh stat line. Like Cooper's, Im not sure if his first game figures will say anything about his future.

    Im more interested in how he looks out there, more than his stats. Like if he looks lost out there, but was able to get 3 out of 6 shots in, vs looking like he belongs and shooting like 1-7.

    Id almost rather he look like he belongs/not look massively out matched, and shoot for shit vs somehow make shots but look like a 7' tall Chinese Keljin Blevins

    I mean I'm fine if he thinks its fun and its something he spends an hour on here or there.

    But after Ayton addition to video games it has me a tad bit concerned that could get in the way of a good work ethic to improve his game. Probably unwarranted fear - but I can't picture crazy hard NBA workers like Dame/Wes/Kobe/MJ etc being so excited about video games.

    We used to have 2 planes. Mr. Allen’s private 757s. About 10 years ago he sold one to Trump and one to GOOGLE. Since we have been on the NBA’s Delta Charter Service with about 27 of the other teams. A few still use their owner’s private planes. They have a fleet of about 14 I believe that constantly moves teams around the country. Pretty complex system actually. Mr. Allen’s planes were pretty dope though, miss ‘em!

    As long as he's not playing DDR, I think he should be ok.

    No Ace Bailey… sounds like bullshit to me. He had a bad game and a good game and then he sits. Probably didn’t want to have any other bad games.

    Nobody will answer to this because they all shot their loads about trying to one up the Yang questioners.

    On another note, Liam McNeeley looked great today. Feel like he would have been a good fit for us too.

    Edgecomb hasn’t been playing much along with Murray-Boyles, Coward, Harper, Flemming… what gives? I know there are a few nagging injuries in there, but the rest?
