    Hearing about his injury in Tokyo was scary. I’m glad he was able to recover and finish off his career playing in Australia

    An essential piece of the puzzle. Masai Bobby and Nick used him to perfection.

  6. All I can picture is that shot he took just a few feet away from the rim that went backwards. Hilarious, thank you for your service tank commander 🫡

    we should’ve retired his jersey over VC’s…. He’s done more for the franchise than VC.

    Man won a contest off a frosted flakes cereal box to play pro NBA.

    He wasn’t very good for us, but he had a solid NBA career, seemed to give a shit, and seemed well liked by his teammates. I’m glad he was able to keep playing after that weird shit in Tokyo. Hope he enjoys his retirement.

    I know it’s fashionable to hate on him, but I just want to say something nice about him.

    When the full tank was happening, game thread has like 7 people in it, Nick was mostly just playing the bench guys, and Baynes had like 7-8 minutes of play time. That man was cooking so fucking hard in the limited play time he had, everyone in the thread was saying “where the fuck was this during regular season???”

    I’d like to believe that Nick was running some very structured strategies with the starters who have been with the team a while, and Baynes just couldn’t adapt to that as the new guy. And when the dog days come and it was more meh whatever, he had the freedom to cook the way he wanted to.
