    In the after-draft conference last night, he sounded confused, but I honestly think it's because he didn't get any rest and had been up all day. That may have something to do with it. I'm sure his hours are whacky -- especially around draft or trade time.

    Yeah, that was a bit awkward, but I think he was just reaching for a question to ask. I kind of feel bad for the guy, and he knows he fumbled the opportunity a bit and owned up to it :

    I mean he had all day to think of something haha. I’m not mad at him it was just a terrible question. Not offensive really, just tone deaf. Even if Kobe was still around Jalen was 8 when he won his last championship. Then to ask that question like they had some kind of personal relationship…man that was rough lol. I feel bad for him too.

    He doesn't sound confused to me just really robotic in his speech patterns. Every question is like a task he tries to deconstruct verbally and it just doesn't come off as a good conversation vibe.

    To me he sounds like he just doesn't want to say the wrong thing or get misinterpreted. Sometimes he tries to say more than he has to say and just has to cut himself off when he realizes "nah, that's all i really have". lol. But last night really sounded bad. He didn't sound as bad in today's conference, though.

    BTW, Alperen's suit looks nice, and I'm not even into the tight pants trend. Love the combo with that watch. Reeally like the watch.

    Sorry but a professional reporter who writes “could of” instead of “could have” I cannot take seriously.

    I noticed his watch too and I’m not even into watches.

    Him and Jalen have completely different looks but are both stylish. Christopher on the other hand…

    Yeah, not a fan of whatever Jalen's doing though he's got some crazy hair game. And Josh looks like he just walked off a shift at the local farm. I though I read he was into his own line of clothing or something.

    Haha they didn’t even announced their jersey numbers. Number 4 is Green’s number and they are waiting for House to be traded.

    Sengun needs to petition for #69 or 99. We need some high number.
