    And, the whole family now wears gator skinned boots!
    On the real though, we’ve had some excellent seafood and even found a few beachside places that make very good fish tacos.

    It’s a small town called Richmond Hill. It’s about 30 mins from Savannah, GA

    Another nice game vs an elite center. We gotta make this guy part of our long term plans.

    He barely misses from like anywhere in the paint, such nice touch. Worthy made the point after the Portland game that a lot of players are just entering their prime at his age as well, and I thought that was interesting, could be true, he could be at that point where he’s just putting it all together. Only time will tell, but so far he’s been great.

    he was a p**** around Wemby in the paint. Go up with force and try to foul the guy out my man.

    Outside of that he was great again: did really lost this matchup? I'd call it a tie as he had better numbers then Wemby but Wemby has such a non box score impact. With that I still think he's only been outplayed one time. That's absolutely great from any position.

    Yeah Deandre is a force! Was trying to remember if his hair has been that color or if it’s an attempt at gold for the Lakers like Rodman did?

    His defence has been quite good. If he gives you 70% of AD's defence, with an elite mid range game, at this contract - it's just a no brainer.

    Like the way this team is coming together. You can tell these guys genuinely like each other.

    He really found his rhythm out there. Ayton has such a natural feel for the game inside the paint... once he establishes good position, he’s nearly automatic.
