It's crazy how there has been no leaks about Fultz jumper. Not even an uncles cousin's nephew has seen that shyt? I know a couple articles came out in August about how it's back or whatever but damn....Hanlen got that gym on lock.

"Pau hates it every time I tell this story," Bryant recalls. "He hates it.

We lost to the Celtics in '08 and it was a physical series. I mean they beat the crap out of us. We go into the Olympic year, that year, we wind up playing Spain for the gold-medal match and we beat them.

So now we come back to start training camp and Pau shows up first day of training camp, I have my gold medal hanging in his locker.

"The one thing he truly, truly love is his country. That is like everything to him. So it just drove him crazy.

He said 'You're an a$$hole!'

I said, 'Listen Pau, you lost to the Celtics, you lost to us in the gold-medal match, let's not make this three in a row this year. Let's win this thing.' That was it for him.

"Pau was a phenomenon to begin with. For him, it was just stepping up a level of physicality, that we needed him to get to, which he did and we went on to win back-to-back championships."

I saw some IG posts awhile back saying Fultz J is on point. It was right after that hanlen vid he posted where Fultz was working with him 3 times a day

It's weird how Dwight's corny personality has made people forget that dude spent 4 years in the nba as probably the second most unstoppable force in the nba other than lebron...

When he was in the paint you couldn't score...you couldn't get a rebound...you couldn't stop him from dunking on you...and you couldn't stop him from getting a rebound...

In the right system he would still be monster right now...I'd kill to have him in swag antonio now that we got perimeters players who aren't 30 and know how to dribble...
