Premium Member Diesel Posted September 15, 2010 Premium Member Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 Hawks Sy of relief... This line intrigues me. "You can tell L.D. is really high on Sy, so the Hawks spent some cash to get him over here and now can have some say in his development for this season."Somebody tell Marvin that Sy is coming for the Sf spot!!

Moderators macdaddy Posted September 15, 2010 Moderators Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 Some say in his development for this season reads NBDL to me. Wouldn't you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJlaysitup Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 (edited) I have new nickname for Sy. The French Press!!! I believe Sy = Lebron Stopper!!! The problem is D.....initially I thought a name like "Pape Sy" would be so easy to come up with nicknames for.....but the more I think about it it's like trying to rhym "orange". (and I don't even know how to spell rime) P.S. - I posted this question before but am too lazy to peruse older threads - does anybody have first hand knowledge of this fella's size? I have heard everything from 6-3 to 6-8. :snowballfight: (note: snowball thrower only posted because we finally got out of the 95+ heat everyday here in the ATL.)

bonethugz Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 Some say in his development for this season reads NBDL to me. Wouldn't you think? why? it would be a waste of money and effort for him just to come over to America to "develop"? sund must know something that we don't(of course he should, he's paid to do the job) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators lethalweapon3 Posted September 15, 2010 Moderators Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 It is pronounced as in "Sy of Tranquility", right? I do like that Pop Secret nickname. But of course he'll have to play well to get anything above "Le Rook." I'm hoping they'll stow him away in Provo after training camp until he's really ready, no reason to rush him into anything. ~lw3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaceCase Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 Playing in the DLeague would get Sy more playing time than he'd see on his French team and against better competition than is available in his French league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Sothron Posted September 15, 2010 Premium Member Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 He'll make a valued addition to whatever our NBDL team is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJFAN4LF Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 He'll make a valued addition to whatever our NBDL team is. I believe that would be the Utah Flash. I don't see the hype in him. We've seen him play one summer league game, that's it. A lot of people are acting like he's Mickael Pietrus or something.

What I really like is that Drew said that this is a guy I must have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaceCase Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 (edited) As long as no French Connection references are made when he throws an oop to Smoove. OT: Smoove is getting some endorsement love from NBA 2K11 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrTKlSlQo3Y&feature=player_embedded Maybe he can get a word in to the designers to kick up his 3point rating to a 90.

AnthonyI11 Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 What's with all the hype we are giving Pape Sy? I can't find much video on him so i can't judge how good he is, but seriously? Is it just sarcasm when we are saying "look put Marvin?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
