Woj bomb - WNBA edition:


Wonder if he'll try to install the Triangle.

I suspect I am two, three, even four times our esteemed colleague Orangutan's age, so I had to run in circles* to find the meaning of woj bomb. To spare the knees of my fellow vetust fans, here is what I found:

A Woj bomb is a breaking report released by Adrian Wojnarowski, an NBA insider. The report often comes out of nowhere and includes news about a player or the league that carries a significant impact, which is why it is referred to as a bomb.
Woj bombs are commonly seen on Twitter where sports news includes up-to-the-second updates. Woj bombs often occur in the NBA offseason during the draft and when free agency starts. Trades and signings are most prevalent during these times.

run in circles, scream and shout!

I had to like the original post, not because of the individual hired, but for @Orangutan 's use of "Woj bomb," which is part of my vernacular as well. Well done, Orangutan!

Huh. Interesting hire. Not sure about this one, but what do I know.

Okay now back to twittergate...
