Press Conference: IT3 + Tolliver Intros

You can watch the full press conference there.
Some of my thoughts on it:
*I love the light-hearted, upbeat mood of some of these press conferences. A lot of laughter, a lot of smiling
*You get a good sense of what Hornacek is like in practice. Always positive, a real player's coach. Someone in the media asked Isaiah what he needs to improve on, and Hornacek whispered into the mic, "Defense.... defense.... defense...." For Tolliver, it was "Rebounding.... rebounding...."
*Isaiah seems very happy to be here. He just wanted to be wanted <3
*Both Tolliver and Isaiah seem like high-character guys to me. I think they'll both be great influences on the guys, on and off the court. Should be good with the media, as well.
*McDonough really doesn't mince words when dealing with the media. When asked about Frye, he flat-out made it clear he wasn't going to talk about anyone but Isaiah and Tolliver.

Also, Isaiah going with #3!
Dragic: #1
Bledsoe: #2
Isaiah: #3
Three-headed monster, if everything goes my way with Bledsoe's contract.

Great press conference overall, indeed!
Both of them saying all the right things. Great attitude. I am happy to have players with that type of mindset on the team.

Re: Press Conference: IT3 + Tolliver Intros
Good read, thanks for the summary. I like the positive attitude we are building here in this organization. I also like the 1-2-3 thing; hopefully we can agree on a decent contract with Bled Show and keep it around.
Re: Press Conference: IT3 + Tolliver Intros
Horny and Babby sound confident about Bledsoe's return.

Thats because the market has seemingly dried up. We're now the last man on earth.Cap wrote:Horny and Babby sound confident about Bledsoe's return.

Re: Press Conference: IT3 + Tolliver Intros
Its easy to win a press conference, but how can you not root for Isaiah after that presser?
Must of said he wanted to be hear about 6 times.

“Kobe had said (after the play) I wasn’t hugged enough as a child,” Bell recalled. “My mom kind of found him after the instance and we had beat them and offered him a hug in the bowels of the Phoenix arena. She really feels a part of that story.”

Anthony Tolliver has a very shiny head.
BTW, "must of" is a pet peeve of mine. It's "must have."

It wasn't in the presser, it was in SF4L's post.
