Eric Collins is in pure ecstasy watching Kon Knueppel.
Eric Collins deserves to see this team win a ring, I can’t even imagine the reaction
Thank you for your service
I think he would ascend on a rocket ship to heaven
He’d hit the human resonant frequency and explode on the spot.
On the other hand, I wonder if it would be better for his health and safety just because he might scream himself to death when the hornets get a ring.
Can you imagine if this guy had called game 7 of Cavs/Warriors lol
I want nothing more than to see him call a big game 7. He gets so excited he makes you even more excited. Your team putting it together has finally shown people that never watch hornets how good he is.
Monkeys Paw: It’s game 7 against yall haha
He really is so amazing. And it’s not just the hype calls. He knows so much about every opposing player. Awesome details about their games and lives and NBA history in general. I think he also gives other guys their props when they deserve it. He’s just good for the NBA as a whole
I want him to call fights too. Not just the Draymond ones, but UFC as well!
He for sure does. Loves his Hornets. And the Bulls guy does as well
Kon is insane. Almost looked like prime Klay in this clip, and the stats don’t lie either.
looked exactly like prime klay tbh
All the way down to the wide set feet as he set up the quick release fast break three.
I miss when Klay was good. It’s been a while.
literally
He studied Klay for shooting and defense and Jimmy Butler for finishing in the paint.
I mean it doesn’t get much better than that haha
His finishing is extremely good for a rookie, obviously overshadowed by his generational shooting but its still insane
I think it’s very possible he’s the best shooter since Klay
It’s wild that saying that halfway through his rookie season actually seems like a reasonable take.
Did he say “who is never gonna leave”? lol
He did and he sounds just like me.

Two teams playing for play-in spots and you’d think it’s a playoff matchup preview. The exact opposite of any game Doris Burke commentates on–Eric Collins is absolute ASMR whether you’re a hornets fan or not
Neither of these teams will be in the play-in for opposite reasons lmao
I don’t think you know what ASMR is. Collins is an amazing, enthusiastic commentator. No one is shouting in ASMR lol
This comment is absolute ASMR
How do you know?
He’s ASMR commish.
What a good pick.
It must feel fucking amazing to get a complete green light to go play basketball and get his threes up.
Thing is Kon has elite shot selection, and he’s a good finish at the basket if need be. By contrast you can see how awful some of the other pros attempts are at times.
Dude absolutely plays within the flow and he fan dribble/drive/pass.
Imo essentially more versatile than Klay
That was such a great call. That last “agghhhhhh” got me too.
Lmfao I thought I was the only one who noticed it. That’s when EC finally BUSTED
Or when he calls him a “fantastically glorious player (who is never gonna leave).” For Hornets fans, I hope he never does.
It’s all just too good.
Yeah, poor Dell got wet from that one.
As he should. Kon has changed the hornets entire trajectory.
He was playing with pros at Duke too, to be fair
Yeah Sion was pretty great
Kon has been incredible and Eric Collins is one of the best in the business. It’s awesome to see Collins have a real reason to be this excited after years of disappointment.
Konfident Kon Knueppel is crazy
Yeah… let’s stick to Konfident Knuepell
With the guts of a cat burglar.
God bless giving Eric Collins a legitimately great player to commentate for
We all are.
Bridges is a underrated passer
I remember him talking about how Dean Wade never shoots during our last game against them, and then when Wade hit a couple clutch 3s in the 4th he was as hype as anyone.
This dude is too good. Hornets knocked it out of the park with their draft this year.
