It's not "open" - it's "Opha" which is Korean for 'older brother', but in this case is a term that girls would call a boy that they like.

This team look really good. Really good. THJ still thinks he's a little better than he is, though. I hope he learns how to play within himself this year. We have enough weapons that he doesn't need to go into SUPERCHARGER mode.

I think Hardaway is a four year player. I just can't see him getting drafted in the NBA. I think he's already been pushed out of the top three on this team. Is he even top 5? We'll see as the year goes.
