After a morning of planting tomatoes, and almost overheating (at my age thats a lot easier to do than I thought) I came in to rest and re-hydrate. I got on utube and watched video of Kessler for probably an hour. I honestly didn't know he was that good. I saw UNC play some last season and when he came in, he looked out of place and frankly, overhyped. The video that I saw this morning says otherwise. There is a pretty long vid of him going against Jabari Smith in high school and its just, hot damn awesome. Those two put on a show in that game. I watched videos of Kessler in his late season games where he got more playing time and he looked a total opposite of the games that I saw him play live. He is much more agile than I thought.

J. Smith will only be here one year because he is something special and I am very quickly taking that position with Kessler. 3 days ago I didn't give a s*** where Kessler went because I was of the mind that he was an overhyped attention *****. I stand corrected on at least one of those. He ain't overhyped. He might like all the attention but thats okay by me after watching these videos.

The little PG Green? That guy is going to be special,too. I think BP stole one right there. I see a little bit of Cooper and Harper in him. Give us one more SG and we are set up nicely.

Hooks has insinuated that Thor is not coming back, so that is a bit of a downer there. Hooks is wrong on occasion, but not often. It would be nice if this is one of those times

Bryce Thompson Fr Guard from Kansas just entered the transfer portal and has a good relationship with our incoming freshman Trey Alexander

@TexasTigergoing to Mississippi state to play for his dad per a couple of insiders on the bunker.

@ellitor Do you think this has an effect on Kessler?

Perfectly said.  All the championship teams have "that guy" that makes the plays to keep the momentum or to stop the bleeding.  The Pippens, Kevin McHale for Bird, Manu for the Spurs teams for example. 

I'm thinking more of a Patrick Beverly

Right and the reason he was a lottery pick was because of his defense

I guess I can go with that. He's gonna be a good one though and I'm glad BP and AU got a lottery pick

Only an auburn homer would have had any belief that okoro was going to be good offensively this year. I literally thought everybody on Earth knew he was going to the NBA for one reason and just one reason only. Defense.

No! The one good reason was that he was a lottery pick which he wouldn't have been in any other year. Very smart money decision for him. He'll develop with his work ethic. 

I see we are light on facts in this thread. Thanks E and others for trying to put actual humanity on 17 year olds and family issues.

He tweeted a gif of himself in full AU gear and Deshaun Davis retweeted it with a "hmmmm" and the chin scratch emoji. 

I'm not proud that I know these things. 

Feeling like a creep huh????

"100 percent committed for now". We're today's favorite, which I suppose is better than not being today's favorite but don't give me "committed". Young man, you are nowhere near committed.

A lot of priest say the same thing on wedding day :-\
