    Idk if its premature. Every year we expect Tommy to break out of his shell , but he doesnt. The twins summer "issues" didn't help either. They didnt seem to be on the Mirk plan for readiness this summer, and it shows. To win that championship, we need them, they will be the key, all else being...

    Tomi's... "condtioning", Vaaks "isn't a point guard" , we're running out of pizza hut parking lots, and last but absolutely not least....USC's notoriously deep roster.

    It was concerning (once again) that Brad had to bring up Tomi's conditioning. Do they not have gyms over there in Croatia while waiting for his Visa? If we have a remotely strong Tomi and Z this year other teams are going to be in a world of hurt. If they are what they were last year...

    I think Vaaks would disagree.

    Big Z got into a bar brawl and hurt his hand. Tomi had to stay behind and testify, and to be the best man at Jake Davis marriage to his new Croatian wife.

    Ok so whats the deal with Tomi and Zvonimir? Tomi is stuck overseas due to "a visa issue" and Zvonimir comes home with a "minor hand injury". Hopefully there weren't any broken guitars involved.

    Those comparisons are cute but not even close to ring chasing. Everyone knows LeBron has been doing it for at least a decade, and no I still dont respect it. Outraged? Lol no, just dont respect it.

    That's the problem, he wants a ring so bad, he will basically be payed nothing, (compared to what he should get) just to win another title. No respect for that.

    Yeah, 4 years 15 million? That is hard to pass up after averaging 9 points per game in college, unless he sees himself an NBA talent, going home for set up for life money isn't a bad deal.

    I would 100 percent rather talk about cottage cheese than Morez "I left and talk !!!!" ffing Johnson. And I hate cottage cheese.

    Didn't try to keep him? He was signed and agreed to another NIL deal before he bolted?

    You are right. It was 4:19. At least coming from Brad's mouth. "You know, Ben Humrichous runs a 4:19 mile. He can run. He can run all day." 32 inch vertical also. Also think Will Riley ran a 4:19 also.
