NBA Tar Heels '22-'23
- Thread starter FlaTarHeel
- Start date
I think Garrison Brooks is getting another look as well, with The Pelicans.
Legitimate question... What qualifies a player as being a former UNC player who we root for after their college career? Obviously anyone who ends their college career at UNC is one right? No matter if they were here 1 year or longer.
But does a grad transfer like Garrison qualify? If Puff, Dunn, Styles, etc ever make the NBA, do they qualify? Maybe it's different for everyone, but I'm wondering what the general standard is.
Generally speaking, if they leave 'in good standing'. That can be subjective. Like in my opinion, there shouldn't be a question about Garrison. He devoted 4 years to the program and was often the bright spot during some dim times.
Another aside...I really enjoy this thread keeping track of former heels
Brooks was a Tarheel longer then many, and played more games then most, he is clearly regarded as such by the school and athletic department.
I'm fairly sure Puff and Caleb will be invited to return for summers as family. I think all are considered family, a Heel, unless they left on bad terms or created animosity after they left maybe?
As for fans, heck there is often no rhyme or reason for fans. Each can and often do have their biases creating their likes and dislikes and what qualifies as "real" to them. To each their own. Ya can't please everyone...😆
Coach Pop is from my home town. Had the pleasure of hearing him gush about how the city shaped him as part of the documentary about the cities legendary basketball history. Reggie will be playing for one of the all time greats. Get 'em fellas !!!
Good for Bully, Pop has always said that UNC guys were well coached coming into the league.
Might not be the last time he gets traded this coming season. Expiring contract.
I wonder if this was in the making for a while. If the Mavs waived Bullock a week ago, they would’ve saved $5.5M. He ended up getting his $10.5M full guaranteed and this gets the Spurs to the salary cap floor.
He gets to play with Wemby!
Mavericks are not expected to bring Pinson back.
His final game as a Maverick he tallied 23 points, 13 rebounds, 12 assists, 0 turnovers.

Someone will sign him, and Reggie is gone as well.
Any franchise spending the kind of money they spent on a sociopath from dook deserves to wallow in misery.

It’s obvious that Brady makes them better. Just watching him the whole time, I’m amazed at how much he effected the game and each play. I know I’m a bit biased but there has to be a place for him in the league.
