Evan Fournier back when he had the man bun was pretty cringe

Larry Walker IV has a weird celery stalk thing going on

GOATUADLA was -33 in 23 minutes tonight in the Hawks loss. What a player.

There was a move Young put on him before a three that just made him look like he's been not playing for a while. OH WAIT

Elfred Payton (probably butchered that)
LeBron James
Brandon Ingram

To round out the top 5

If we are including weird baldness kevin Durants got that in spades.

Carlos Boozer when the guy jacked his look and he had to wear that weird shoe polish spray can stuff on national tv

Young and Caruso are predicated on weird baldness

They don't get a pass for genetics. Shave your fucking head. They are flaunting their weird hair just like Large Idiot does with his unibrow.

Bro we’re not on the same page here.

Nobody gets a pass. They both have top 5 worst hair.

I think it's ridiculous how much Ainge over values the end of the bench but I'm pretty glad he held onto Romeo Langford. I think he might really turn into something if he can stay healthy. His defense is impressive for a rookie and he can score.

The refs completely ruined the end of this game

Ainge better find a real 3rd point guard and put Wanamaker in the G League where he belongs.

You cant tell me Jeremy Lin wouldn't help the Celtics.

Not very fun to watch my Blazers without Dame. CJ & Melo have been disappointing since December.

CJ looks out of shape to me. Like he's carrying extra weight in chest/core

I feel so bad for Derrick. But then I have to remind myself there were rumors he didn't even want to get traded, and you certainly would think the Pistons would have moved him given their willingness to move their parts for pure garbage in return. I think the best Piston might be Christian Wood and he's a RFA who they are going to have to pay 12/14 a year possibly.

How would you have felt if he had been traded to the Lakers and he helped them win a ring?

Honestly I'd be so happy. He was around during all star weekend and spoke at a mental health conference. He's not a smart guy but at 31 he seems pretty insightful about himself and the things he's gone through. I read some of the quotes and he didn't come out and say he was suicidal at any point, but he was certainly overwhelmed by his situation and in a dark place for a few years.

All this makes me wonder if he even wants that shot at a ring though. He supposedly expressed he did not want to leave Detroit, which is a horrible basketball situation. But if you're Derrick it's safe. You get minutes, you get to close games, you're close to home and most importantly it seems for him, you're out of the spotlight.

Speaking of NBA players with mental health issues, anyone else read Ben Gordon in the Players Trib?
