the notorious S.A.C. 89 Report post Posted July 2, 2015 I wouldn't let Mario board the plane until he punched Fran in the nuts once for us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TreyMachine 399 Report post Posted July 2, 2015 I wouldn't let Mario board the plane until he punched Fran in the nuts once for us. Mario has the chutzpa to do this. Wouldn't put it past him if management asked. Would also become my favorite player of all-time if such a scenario happened. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mauro Pedrosa 1,033 Report post Posted July 2, 2015 Mario's spanish is very good for someone that only spent 3 years in Spain. He said that his dream wasn't to play in the NBA but to do something in the NBA http://www.nba.com/magic/uno-uno-mario-hezonja http://www.nba.com/magic/entrevista-mario-hezonja Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TreyMachine 399 Report post Posted July 2, 2015 Things I noticed: 1. Hezonja is fiddling with his jersey to get it perfectly folded... The dude A) pays attention to detail, and B) Is probably slightly OCD. Don't know how this will translate to basketball, but it's interesting. 2. Henny really does seem to be giddy talking about Mario and following him. 3. Mario always has his eyebrow raised like he knows something that the rest of us don't know. 4. Tyler looks like he's so scared to be there... like.. he hasn't moved or looked away for the past 3 minutes... 5. Really like Tyler Harvey's story about being a walk-on who went on to lead the national in college basketball scoring. 6. Mario, despite having the "I'm the best on the court" mantra, is really speaking with humility. I wasn't expecting this. Overall, nothing outside of the ordinary in these interviews.

~O~ 565 Report post Posted July 2, 2015 I found it respectful when Hezonja folded his jersey with grace. It was like he was proud of it. Other guys (who didn't want to go to philadelphia) would toss it on the table. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TreyMachine 399 Report post Posted July 3, 2015 And so begins that injury bug we thought might happen with a skinny 7'2" player... His brother alluded to the uncertainty in a radio interview Monday on ESPN Radio, citing the tightness in his hip that forced him to shut down his Knicks workout three days before the draft. Janis Porzingis said on the radio his brother’s injury occurred because of the strenuous workouts he underwent leading to his ballyhooed Las Vegas workout June 12, which was attended by Phil Jackson and almost every NBA team’s top executives. http://nypost.com/2015/07/01/knicks-say-porzingis-will-play-in-summer-league-but-his-brothers-not-so-sure/ Looks like we may have lucked out that Porzingis didn't drop to us :shard: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
