Wait, they're wearing the "home" uniform in 25% of the home games?
The name is just a historical artifact, from the days when we wore white at home and a color on the road. The good old days. In the end, capitalism won out over tradition.

I’m still confused by the whole Bol Bol stuff…why didn’t we just claim his contract when he was waived? We signed him to a minimum deal and we won’t have any bird rights or early bird rights on him. We would have if we claimed him.
I don’t expect him to do much, but if he breaks out, we won’t have an avenue to keep him.

He’s not breaking out …

Does anyone really care what that old biscuit thinks about a trade? Like, really?
Yes. He has more basketball knowledge in his left pinky than you will ever have in your life.

Al is a "Deandre Ayton guy." What do you expect him to say? They had a personal bond. It was more personal than basketball.

Nah, it wasn’t just personal. He’s developed a personal bond with most players over the years (perhaps Booker more than anyone else). But I’ve heard enough from him over the years to know what he thinks of him as a basketball player. That quote in my sig was from him discussing Ayton’s basketball qualities.

Al doesn’t strike me as a guy who’d say something negative about anyone

I'm sure he included Ayton... and mind you he wasn't mentioned first, but last; only because he knew Ayton needed the emotional "hug" or he'd pout.
