From "The Athletic"...

Yeah not good for him at all....Not the best work ethic

 

[bksballer89]

Toronto hanging around. Down 5 with just under 11 to go

 

[Black Adam]

Toronto don't stand a chance against cleveland in the playoffs.

Cavs in 5

was hoping they'd strap on a li'l extra tonight...

might be too much to hope for...

I advise you to put your TV on mute....You will enjoy the game more. Trust me

I’m fortunate it’s on tnt because I’m traveling and can’t watch the thunder homers. They should make all the players spend 2 1/2 hours watching Marv Albert and Jim Nantz play one on one. What’s the fn difference?

Wait, so you know the thunder commentators are homers?

Didn't realize it was a rap lyric. I agree.

Because that's the way most of the media is presenting it and it's shameful.

When you realize where the quote originated, it completely changes the context.

At least you were open-minded enough to give the kid the benefit of the doubt even before you had the entire story.

Good on you.

I think the game on Friday that airs on NBA TV will be completely devoid of commentary.

Gonna be GLORIOUS.

For Crissakes.....

People love to try and steal a person's moment to shine.

I just turned on my TV and I see Divincenzo's name.

I'm thinking they are discussing will he stay or will he go, will he be a 1st round pick.

But, no....

They are talking about a fucking tweet he sent when he was 14.

Look, I fucking hate racists.

White racists, black racists, brown, yellow, green, blue...all of you mother fuckers.

But, that was a lyric from a song. A song by an artist that comes from the place this kid was living at the time. A song that I'm sure he heard all over town and that referenced Derrick Rose.

GMAFB.....

Listen, if we are going to be triggered every time someone of a different race uses a slur, that is used as a term of endearment for that particular race, maybe we should stop playing that Shit on the radio, on the internet, in our cars driving down the street.

Biggest moment of this kids life and they hit him with this Shit?

Disgusting.

Social media and the internet are, at the same time, among the best and worst inventions ever.

Instant access brings information and keeps people in touch with one another in ways that were impossible just a short time ago.

But it also gives idiots a worldwide platform.

 

[Mecca]

Fultz and Simmons on the court together for a good 3 to 5 minutes with Fultz playing point. Experimenting time in a comfortable game against the Nets.

Wasn't that the plan in the beginning, to have them on the court together?

 

[thunderc]

Wait, so you know the thunder commentators are homers?

Lol, yeah but they are our homers.

 

[Sir Robin Of Camelot]

Yeah not good for him at all....Not the best work ethic

On a team with a guy who is known for his work ethic (Dirk) and a guy who is adopting a similar work ethic (Smith Jr.), it isn’t like there aren’t role models he could look to.

Agree.

That's why I teach my kids to never post Shit...lol

They can't film video inside my house, nor post pictures without prior approval.

Last thing I need is to smoke some dickhead as he breaks into my house because my idiot kid took a picture of some Shit they might want to steal.

 

[bksballer89]

Lowry with 5 and DeRozan 15.....yeah same old Raptors when facing the Cavs at least

 

[Mecca]

These players only commentor games are truly horrible. It’s like wanting to watch one of the great announcers play basketball. Stupid.

Dude, WTF is going on here?

They can't lose this game.

 

[trojanfan12]

So when will the Lakers fire Walton?

As soon as they come to terms on a contract for Lavar.

 

[Black Adam]

Agree.

Just going to repost this anytime the Raptors lose to the Cavs from now on

 

[thunderc]

The biggest thing that is going on is 17 minutes in Adams finally just got the ball inside fir the first time. Warriors have no one thst can come close to dealing with him but the Thunder are jacking 3s.

 

[Black Adam]

As soon as they come to terms on a contract for Lavar.

1st of Never...

I'll mark it down...
