Question. Back in the day training wheels with tequila yes or no?

No.

Never on the rocks.

Why would I want my shot watered down?

No.

I liked Makers Mark on the rocks. But not a good tequila.

 

[Gman]

You ever try Gran or El Alto patron before you went dry?

Silver is superior.

Nah, I was never a huge drinker on my own... only when out with friends...

Frankly, I have a weak stomach. I just can't handle the stuff well.

But that Silver Patron always went down smoother than anything else I've tried.

 

[Wamu]

How about a Zima & a wine cooler?

I'll tell me wife that one...

... (she actually is in recovery)

But we're at a point where I can joke about the whole alcoholism thing... and she can too.

Good for her man

I'm admittedly a Binger. I will pound down 10 or so beers one day and not drink for 3 days. I barely drink at home alone. Always with people over or out and about.

In light of recent reactions, how will Klay respond?



Still, it seems that Charles Barkley has reaffirmed his stance about Thompson in a recent interview with Taylor Rooks of Bleacher Report. “I was caught off guard because I went back and looked and I said, ‘Klay Thompson is still a heck of a player, but he’s never going to be the best two-guard in the NBA that he was for a long time because of age, Achilles and ACL,’”

I was the same way. Drank a lot when I went out and rarely drank at home.

Meh...not sure how he'll respond.
In one aspect, Chuck is probably correct....but then again, Klay is a proven competitor and a champion.
I just hope he doesn't go all KD on social media. I trust he won't as he seems much more centered.

That said...it's Barkley....chuck is gonna chuck.
I think Klay knows more about his body and his return than anyone other than his doctors, therapists and trainers.
He's still a work in progress though since his comeback began imho.
There will always be good games & bad games....and that applies to most if not all players.
Hopefully there's more of the former obviously.

Don't think anything he said is unreasonable. Klay has been playing better lately, but that's mostly just because his shot has been falling. I think at the start of the year he was doing too much. The team had a players meeting when they were struggling and Klay said he had conversations with Draymond about him doing too much. Since then he's relaxed and been playing really good ball. He's not going to be the best 2 guard any longer but he can still be really good.
