9 years. Doesn't seem like it, and yet it does. How does that work?

* Gotta say, always, of all of Sean's, TJ is the one.

TJ would be an all star level player in the 80s and 90s.

Especially since he absolutely refuses to take 3’s.
Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

He's so good when he tries. Good thing is he's young and still has a chance to turn his image around.

Everything, every. fucking. thing. about that guy makes me feel that there's an element independent of aggregate life that is morally and simply good. He's embodies the bliss we are told to follow, that thing calling prior to and beyond words that makes better all things to be.

My favorite Wildcat of all time.

No way he should have knocked his ass out but the longer version shows Ray avoiding him earlier but the kid just kept swinging at him.

Also saw people saying he allegedly called him the N word.

Edit: Oh he definitely called him the N word

One of the few Lute era transfer-outs that succeeded in college. Think he led the nation in scoring at UNM his senior year.

I think next year is the final year on TJ’s deal. He could be a very interesting free agent for a contender if the Pacers don’t throw a bucket of money at him first.

They need to shift their rotation because he sits most of the 4th qtr when the Knicks make their run. He is the only guy that gives them any pause. Playing great.
