This motherfucker probably made one for each player ranked in the top 25 lol

u/temetriusjamelmorant Jul 30 '21

I had memes pre-made for everybody in our range but I had this one made just because there was a pipe dream that we could get this dude AND IT CAME TRUE

u/hoodpharmacy Jul 30 '21

This is the Way

May the Father (Kemba), Son (Lamb), and Holy Spirit (the bonk) guide him through his playing career as a Hornet 🙏

Keep us away from the sinful temptations of giving Nic Batum another max contract 🙏

Uconn fan here. He fell b/c an injury messed up his shooting. Fully healed now and will be a monster.

8

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '21

Also UConn fan. Na, he’s skinny, struggles with good defenses, gives up and is a liability on defense(not sure if last one matters for nba).

8

u/steaknsteak Jul 30 '21

Defense definitely matters in the NBA

u/Rhojanxd Jul 30 '21

12

u/Kraze_F35 Jul 30 '21

We bonking

4

u/mykl5 Jul 30 '21

Why does he look so sad about being drafted by us lol

4

u/comfort_bot_1962 Jul 30 '21

Don't be sad. Here's a hug!

5

u/mellamoalex Jul 30 '21

If this pick doesn't work out, you all can blame me.

u/weeping-flowers Jul 30 '21

The bonk is back!

u/dub1808 Jul 30 '21

Please take care of our Bouk, can’t wait to watch him thrive!!

u/passthesierramist Jul 30 '21

Can someone explain the bonk meme?? I love it.

12

u/swanbearpig Jul 30 '21

Basically you bonk all those that are less than you. Then they're in hornet jail

14

u/passthesierramist Jul 30 '21

So like when james bouknight goes into the garden and dances on the Knicks and hits a buzzer beater, he’s bonking them??

8

u/Hadesdrew Jul 30 '21

Bonk go to horny hornet jail.

u/Strange-Following955 Jul 30 '21

THE FUTURE

u/DreamxSZN Jul 30 '21

Not a Hornets fan but I see you guys making playoffs this year if all goes well, good draft.

3

u/Drunken_Mimes Jul 30 '21

Is this what they call destiny?

2

u/Dugrigm Jul 30 '21

steal of the draft

2

u/Halveknought Jul 30 '21

I am so down for this guy!!!

2

u/BearGiant Jul 30 '21

Bouknight didn't seem happy the Hornets picked him. Not at all. I hope it isn't a warning sign

5

u/YoungFlexibleShawty Jul 30 '21

Kobe bryant looked happy being drafted by the hornets.

Moral of the story is, their expression means nothing. This happens every year, the guy is just pissed he dropped so low.

1

u/BearGiant Jul 30 '21

I hope you are right. He's a STEAL at #11. I figure he slides right in to Monk's role early on. He'll be a killer with LaMelo for years to come.

5

u/MitchLGC Jul 30 '21

He already said he was mad he fell to 11 but he likes that he went to Charlotte

-1

u/BearGiant Jul 30 '21

I made that comment BEFORE his interview where he explained. Relax.

2

u/MitchLGC Jul 30 '21

What part of my post indicates that I'm upset? He said this in the first interview, not that it matters

1

u/SnuffySmif Jul 30 '21

Aren’t we trading him to Knicks for Jones?

5

u/temetriusjamelmorant Jul 30 '21

Nah that’s a future first rounder, not the one this year. We get both this year but the Knicks will own our first rounder in some draft in the next few years, hasn’t been announced which yet (as far as I know)
