Thank you, Jordan Bell!

Post by pairadux »

Jordan is taking this hard, and for that I appreciate him even more. He stepped up big time in this tournament, which we all know, and without his presence in the middle, there's no way we would have all been able to enjoy this Final 4 run.

He's quickly become my all time favorite Duck bBall player, here's a few things that I appreciate about Bell:

Right before inbounding a ball, walking over and high fiving some little kid who waved at him.
Stepping up and demoralizing Kansas with those 8 blocks last week.
In the process, becoming a meme, showing Altman
Trolling Hekker
Recognizing the women's team and noting them as an inspiration prior to the Kansas game
Monster jam after monster jam
Monster block after block
Staring down or mugging for the baseline camera
Being a great teammate who cares about them beyond himself

Let's all hope for one more season.

I'm hoping that he comes back for one more year.

I'm really hoping he comes back and we get McCoy! I loved Bell and Boucher together, they were a special combo, but I think in some ways Bell and McCoy would be better together! We have enough blocking ability with Bell, now we need a big guy to hold down the paint! That would make things so much easier for Bell.

I believe it was a home game with Stanford, we had an 18 point lead. Stanford has what looks to be a break away lay in, Bell sprints from behind and blocks the shot!
Plays hard no matter what the score. Great kid

Great representative of the school too. He's very charasmatic and seems like a great person in general. He was the main one holding Carrington back when he was trying to fight Eddie Heard.

I had a couple of coworker's today teasing me about Oregon losing and we're specifically laughing at Bell and insulting him for crying, they were saying he's a wimp for crying. Kinda ironic two fat guys were insulting a soon to be professional athlete. Worst part is, one of them calls himself a duck fan, the other is a Colorado State fan.

Show him Kentucky players after their loss to Kansas. Fox was crying way more aggressively lol.

Everyone cries. It's life.

the season is long. Players have put everything into every game. Then the pac-12 tourney and then
then the real tourney starts. Its one and done. They are so keyed up for these games and the
further they go the worse it gets. Sure there gonna cry when they lose. And if they were to win it
all of course they would. Nothing wrong with that. Emotions are used up during the tourney.

Probably my all-time favorite Duck. I would love to see him come back for his senior season and continue to polish his offensive game. He will need that to succeed in the NBA.

Bell is one of my favorite athletes ever, in any sport. I hope he comes back just so he can have a year to really star. Another off-season of developing his offensive game and returning to a team where he would be the focal point would likely mean a massive year for him. He would have a chance to be one of the best players in the nation and garner the attention he already deserves.

Not officially, but some are saying he's in CA training already so it seems like he's gone. Just waiting for official announcement.
