How hot is she?
She's an 8 but think she's a 10. Also refuses be an equal household participant. She only plays one side of the relationship.

I wonder if that's the issue?

If he really intends to retire after the season, he may not see the point of moving clear across the country, having to learn new teammates, coaches, system, etc.
Probably exactly this...


In a Tweet on Tuesday morning from his wife Lily Batum, it was confirmed that LA Clippers forward Nicolas Batum will be retiring after the 2023-24 NBA season. As Batum's wife noted in additional Tweets, this had already been alluded to by the veteran forward in an interview with Le10sport last year, but it has now received further confirmation.



The Tweet from Batum's wife, which was translated from French to English, said that Batum will end his playing career after the 2024 Olympics. So while Batum's NBA career will end after the completion of the 2023-24 NBA season, he will get to end his playing career with the French team.

That’s the trade off in being a pro athlete. Mother fucker has milked the league for $187 million in career earnings. For a guy who averages 10 PPG in his career. Suck it up butter cup. Or as the French would say:
suce-la renoncule!

Let him retire

Would push you under the luxury tax

@thunderc

After week 1, it's Wemby, Chet, Miller...in that order....for ROY.

Likely the same when week 2 ends.

I expect it to pretty much stay that way unless there is an injury.

Batum can’t just leave his family where they are and live in a penthouse the few nights he is in Philly? My gosh the entitlement.

He’s French. He bathes in diarrhea and doesn’t realize that he smells.

Also…can you imagine the jokes about France and surrendering if he decides to quit before coming to Philly?

I’m sorry Mr. Oubre. I was unfamiliar with your game. Why was this guy available for a bag of peanuts and a roll of athletic tape?!?!? What am I missing?

Tsunami Papi can play.

He just has to be reminded he isn't a #1 or #2 option from time to time.

He has matured since his Washington Days.

He just got caught up in the CP3 trade with Phoenix.

Charlotte...he was injured and they were trash without Melo.

From what I can gather he has no conscience when it comes to shots he will take. That may be because seemingly every team he has been with has been dog shit when he’s been with them. He hasn’t played in the playoffs since 2018 when he was 22.
