He scored very efficiently (6-13), and had no turnovers. Harris, who seems to have a bit of an avuncular attitude toward Jalen, thought he played well in every aspect of the game. I wouldn’t argue the point.

Ha...I need to come clean.  When I read the original writeup I had to look up the word avuncular

I kind of like the sound of that, lol. 

Devin has also described himself as feeling like a "proud papa," with regard to JB's accomplishments. 

Whether he's more like a papa or an uncle, he seems to enjoy some reflected glory when it comes to Jalen's progress. Which seems kind of cool to me, since he apparently has given Jalen some tips.

Brave confession, lol.

Sorry, didn't really mean to send people scrambling for their dictionaries, haha.

Good one, lol. 

English is my native language, and I sometimes forget to take into account that we have a lot of people who primarily speak something else. I have long admired people who can communicate in more than one language -- man, struggling with English is about all that I can manage.  

Polyglots of the board, here's to you!

You should try to make folks get our their dictionaries at least once per write up.

In addition to providing humor and diplomacy, you're also the board sesquipedalianist!

Wow!

I'm swooning.

On what other fan board would there be a discussion like this?

Can we all try to remember how we're feeling tonight, and that this is a process? 22 year-old cornerstone, new coach, etc?

I'm glad this didn't age well.
