It's a joke. I'll be back someday I guess but I just can't see myself being invested in this shit. It's just too much of a mess. Give me true entertainment and escape or fuck off.

Why doesn't Kyrie Irving want me to experience joy?

[verb_to_trust]

He wanted guys to "start their own league". God damn these guys are out of touch with reality.

[96583UP]

these guys being on TV only improves their exposure to spread this message

and I expect the NBA would adopt it full-storm which only improves the odds of more sustained cultural change

kyrie is a moron

[verb_to_trust]

I really really want to season to just end because of this stuff. It'll be news for about three days.

I just read something on Yahoo sports about how Len Bias could have challenged Jordans 6 rings. Jesus. These guys really got nothing. Just shut it all down for a while.

Yeah but I would really enjoy a chronological documentary detailing all of the “next Jordan’s” and Baby Jordans....careers.

Nobody wants to see Kyle Korver or Dwight Howard play

Just give me a stand alone Harold Minor doc

Another good one would be Ronnie Fields, Chicago Public League legend:

Born and raised in Chicago, Fields played at Farragut Academy in Chicago from 1992–1996 and was a teammate of Kevin Garnett during the 1994 season.[1] Fields had a (reported) 50-inch vertical leap. ESPN HS regarded him as the best freshman in the country for the 1992–93 season.[2] He was a 3-time Parade All American selection (1994–96). He was also the first sophomore to ever play in the "Best of the Best" game at the Nike All American camp in 1993, a game that featured future NBA MVP'S Allen Iverson and Kevin Garnett, and High School Player of the Year award winners Ron Mercer and Jerod Ward.

After Garnett was drafted in 1995, Fields, in his senior year, led his squad to an 11-1 record in the Chicago Public League with per-game averages of 32.4 points, 12.2 rebounds, 5.1 assists, 4.5 blocks, 4 steals, and 4.5 dunks a game. He became a consensus First Team All American (Parade, USA Today, McDonald's), putting him in the company of future NBA players Mike Bibby, Jermaine O'Neal, Tim Thomas, and Kobe Bryant.[3]

Fields broke his neck in a car accident on February 26, 1996, one week before the city playoffs. After undergoing surgery to repair a fractured bone in his neck, he had to wear a protective halo while healing. He left high school as the third all-time leading scorer in Chicago Public League history with 2,619 points. His high school teammates include Willie Farley (94), Kevin Garnett (95) and Michael Wright (98).

After being recruited by Joey Meyer, Fields signed a letter of intent at DePaul University in his hometown but was later ruled academically ineligible and denied admission. A few months later, Fields pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of sexual abuse,[4] which led to a probation.[5]

He declared himself eligible for the 1996 CBA Draft and was selected in the 7th round (73rd overall) by the LaCrosse Bobcats. He also declared for the 1997 NBA Draft but later withdrew his name. Fields was eligible for the 1998 NBA Draft but went undrafted.

Fields also suited up as an import in the Philippine Basketball Association for the Tanduay Rhum Masters. He has also played in Venezuela, Turkey, Lebanon, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, and Greece. Fields also played in the ABA, reuniting with Joey Meyer in the 2000-2001 season with the Chicago Skyliners. He also spent four seasons with the Rockford Lightning as the team' starting guard. In November 2008, Fields returned to play basketball in the CBA for the Minot SkyRockets, signing as the starting shooting guard. The 32-year-old Fields averaged 21.4 points, 4.9 assists, and a league-leading 2.7 steals a game in his last full season.[6]

He doesn't deserve any attention to detail. Four year career then washed out.

Once they are there it could theoretically be ok. The problem is getting there and players following the rules.

Keep Giannis out of Florida until the playoffs. One seed already locked up.
