#

YOOO WTF

#

must have been announced just now?!?!?

#

great fight

#

at this point kattar will leap ahead of zabit and everyone if he wins this

burnt cedar
#

Yeah sucks for Zabit that nobody wants to fight him

#

But neither Zabit or Kattar have to worry about a title shot next

#

Cause Max got next

#

I’m going Holloway via decision

bitter rover
#

yeah

#

not sure if he gets a title shot after one win tho

#

wonder when ortega vs volkanovski will be announced

#

also gotta say, the rest of the year is pretty tame

#

cant say ill even be watching the pvp

burnt cedar
#

Yeah apart from Khamzat Edwards

#

And the main event for 256

bitter rover
#

maybe i catch the title fights, or i just read the results lol

burnt cedar
#

Been a tough end to the year

#

Dana is just putting cards out to fill the quota

bitter rover
#

khamzat edwards, sterling yan, hermansson holland are the only ones im looking forward too

#

in that order

#

yeah

#

too many events imo

burnt cedar
#

At least we start the new year with a bang

bitter rover
#

and so many newcomers

burnt cedar
#

Conor Poirier the week after max too

bitter rover
#

yeah

#

tony wants chandler for the ppv in dec

#

but ufc doesnt want it

#

pity

#

seems like chandler thinks he can just wait for a title shot

burnt cedar
#

Chandler is lucky he’s even getting called out by Tony

#

I could see someone like Kevin Lee beating him

rustic ore
#

Interesting

yeah sencho

Yo, Cook alone has like 950 rushing yards for comparison

Yikes

The Bears offense is so politically correct. Nothing offensive to see here.

#

Hope Foles is okay though

dim kettle
#

Foles is hurt, Mitch & Tits is hurt. If the Bears offense couldn't get more PC.

rustic ore
#

Kissin Titties is hurt?

#

Thought he was just deactivated cause Nagy is a dumbass?

dim kettle
#

He wasn't even dressed last night. Something with his shoulder.

simple seal
#

So yeah, they average 78 rushing yards per game

Remember when Nagy was considered an offensive genius? He's not even calling plays anymore.

Btw, current NFL standings post Week 10

Tennessee out of the playoffs with a 6-3 record MoriaFeels

I just realized the Bucs will most likely face the winner of the NFC East.

Watch Cleveland end 10-6 and miss the playoffs... again FujiKEK

Not with that extra seed.

It could happen

I think Browns might start a losing streak. I still see them as a 9-7 team

Philly a 4th seed OdaWeird

rustic ore
#

AFC has 6 teams with a 6-3 record jocking for playoffs positions BuggySweat

dim kettle
#

Man, we’re probably gonna see a couple of collapses coming up the next 5 weeks. I see CLE and BAL as ones doing this.

rustic ore
#

Cleveland actually has a pretty decent chance of making the playoffs this year imo

#

Just based on their schedule down the stretch the only teams they face that have a winning record currently are Pit, Bal, and Ten

dim kettle
#

The offense is very concerning for CLE. They’re not scoring.

rustic ore
#

I mean I expect them to pick it up now that Chubb is back healthy

#

He's their lynchpin

#

Think he had over 120 rushing yards in his first game back in like 6 weeks off of that knee injury he had

dim kettle
#

Still very one dimensional. Reminds me of the early 2010’s Vikings. Just Peterson trying to win 10 games at best

rustic ore
#

I mean they're trying to limit Baker's ability to fuck them over with turnovers

#

With that running attack their O can be super efficient

dim kettle
#

Man, the more I see Baker, the more I see him turning into Christian Ponder. It’s getting that alarming.

rustic ore
#

Same

#

He's got one foot in the door of being a bust

#

And that fact that he's been so ass while Josh Allen has been killing it and Lamar won MVP last year only makes it worse

dim kettle
#

I was big on Allen coming into that draft. But was seen as a project by many. So I don’t blame Dorsey for not getting him. They should’ve got Watson a year prior.

rustic ore
#

Absolutely

#

I mean Garrett is a beast but they haven't had a franchise QB since probably Otto Graham back in the 40s-50s

#

QB>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>every other position in today's NFL

dim kettle
#

Not even Garrett. They traded their pick to the Texans who grabbed Watson.

#

Whoops

rustic ore
#

Oh that's right

dim kettle
#

And that was the year they threw Kizer into the fire. All hail 0-16

rustic ore
#

Completely forgot they had 2 1s that year

dim kettle
#

For as many terrible drafts I’ve seen the Bucs picked. The Jets and Browns are the GOAT of fucking up drafts.

rustic ore
#

Big true

#

I remember I spit out my drink when the Browns drafted Justin Gilbert.

It was so funny

The 2014 NFL draft was the 79th annual meeting of National Football League (NFL) franchises to select newly eligible football players to the league. The draft, officially the "Player Selection Meeting", was held at Radio City Music Hall in New York City, New York, on May 8th t...

#

Look at that image from just the first round

#

It'll make it even funnier

dim kettle
#

Everyone thought the Browns were gonna get Evans or OBJ that day.

#

LOLBrowns

rustic ore
#

Could've had OBJ and Derek Carr with their picks after that trade, or even stayed at 4, taken Evans, and still gotten Carr

dim kettle
#

I remember Jimmy had a draft expert determine who was the best QB that year's draft. They said it was Bridgewater.

#

They picked Manziel instead because a homeless guy said so.

rustic ore
#

Hindsight being 20/20 the first pick should've been Aaron Donald

#

Either him or Mack

dim kettle
#

Hindsight says the Texans should've traded that pick.

dim kettle
rustic ore
simple seal
#

God Manziel was such a bust

#

Also a trash person

rustic ore
#

Talked all that shit about wanting out and his fat ass can't even make the roster a bad football team

rustic ore
#

Also yeah, you hate to see it. Dude was extremely physically gifted but not only didn't give a shit but was an alcoholic as well

#

Feel sorry for him

Also on another side note, current 2021 NFL draft slot standings

Miami really getting a high pick next year while doing well themselves

Also Spain is clapping Germany ZoroNut

rustic ore
#

Like this season could not be going any better for the Dolphins

#

Right in the mix for a playoff a year after the entirety of the NFL world was convinced that they were tanking last year and having a real possibility of having a top 10 draft pick due to a trade last year

simple seal

Spain 5-0 Germany OrochiScheme

#

pls score 7 for the memes

rustic ore
#

How much did Germany beat Brazil by a few years ago, 7-2?

honest umbra

7-1

bitter rover

am i bad for enjoying the brazils heart getting crushed?

simple seal
#

No

#

Loved it

#

Surprises me that Germany almost didn't win the finals after that trashing

bitter rover
#

thinking back on it makes me excited for the next world cup or european cup

Last time Germany conceded 3 goals in one half was in 1958 against France.

honest umbra

6-0 now

Now they conceded 3 goals in both halves

#

German fans really hoping Lowe will finally get sacked for this

#

Not really sure if it will happen since he wasn't fired after losing vs South Korea in the World Cup

honest umbra
#

Lowe is amazing and one of the best international coaches ever

#

But he needs to step down

#

If for no other reason than not playing MATS

#

If you’re gonna blame MATS for letting 8 goals in with a really awful defense, you can blame neuer for letting 6 goals in today for your own team

#

To ferran torres, morata, rodri, oyarzbal of all people LOL

simple seal

6* but yeah

#

Rumor has it the WC win in 2014 was actually on Flick tho. He was assistant coach

simple seal
#

Also not calling people like Muller cause you think they are too old

honest umbra
#

Flick is loved by the players and usually turns a team around

#

Muller has been sensational for Bayern

#

And can’t get called up

simple seal
#

Yeah, he just had one of his best seasons

unborn sandal

Müller doesn't even rely on physicality, he can be an asset until his late thirties if he wants

i was wondering why u guys ghosted

turns out i was in the wrong channel, games

lol

honest umbra
#

It’s ok oli

#

We are always here

rustic ore
#

Quick question, who do y’all think is a better team right now, the Steelers or the Chiefs?

honest umbra
#

If they played today?

#

Chiefs would win

simple seal
#

Oh yeah technically it was 7-0, Morata got a goal disallowed for an inexistent offside

rustic ore
#

I’m struggling with it myself. Steelers have an all world D but the Chiefs have an all world O

honest umbra
#

X factor is Mahomes

simple seal
#

Chiefs >>>>

honest umbra
#

He can just do out of the world stuff

simple seal
#

Mahomes is a cheat code

rustic ore
#

Hmm

honest umbra
#

And chiefs defense is solid enough to keep Big Ben out

rustic ore
#

I don’t know man, Steelers O this year has been super efficient and Claypool is a monster

honest umbra
#

Yea they’d beat most teams in the league

#

Just not the Chiefs

haughty moss
#

Chiefs >>

rustic ore
#

But the Chiefs lost to the Raiders of all teams

honest umbra
#

Claypool knows how to get in the end zone but he hasn’t been able to bring a lot of his targets down efficiently since his 4 TD game

#

I’d rather chiefs lose to a decent raiders than Steelers barely win against a cowboys team with a QB in his first start

rustic ore
#

True

honest umbra
#

It’ll be a chiefs vs steelers AFC anyways

#

We will find out

dim kettle
#

What makes the Steelers better than the Chiefs so far? Defense.

#

Also, imagine the AFC having parity

rustic ore
#

I mean the AFC has a shit ton of young, talented QBs

#

At this point it’s all about those franchises building around said QBs effectively

dim kettle
#

Just not yet. It's too soon.

#

Hopefully it isn't just 3 teams in the AFC that has a chance to a win a SB this decade.

haughty moss
#

But the Chiefs lost to the Raiders of all teams
That’s what happens when you bring pressure and attack downfield

what american football team should i cheer for

Not the 49ers PepeHands

Not the falcon or Detroit lions either

Or the Browns.

Cincinnati and the chargers are fun to watch

They never win but they’re entertaining lol

proud coyote

Bengals will be good in the future

Chargers... who knows

They’re the chargers after all

dim kettle
#

Bengals will be good in the future
They've been saying that for almost 30 years now.

proud coyote
#

But they were good for a while

#

Marvin Lewis bengals were perennial div champs, just couldn’t win in the playoffs

dim kettle
#

Yeah, at fringe playoff contention. I think even Bengals fans don't give a crap about 7-10 win teams anymore when they can't get passed the first round.

proud coyote
#

Was more like 10-12 win teams

#

Where they just kept getting unlucky

Remember Jeremy Hill’s fumble

#

Remember Dalton’s injury

If you want fun games

proud coyote

That year they probably go to the conference finals at least

Cardinals rn are the one team

Dolphins are fun too

Remember Vontaze Burfict nearly killing AB that caused a penalty? Remember the Bengals laying an egg against the Chargers and Colts? Yeah, they did a lot of this beating themselves stuff.

This Week On Days of Our Steelers

Can’t really fault them for the insanity of one player

Dude was a great player back then

haughty moss
#

Bengals ain't been right since 06 wildcard

dim kettle
#

Such a sad core the Bengals had in that 05-10 window. All the talent in the world and only 2 playoff births.

#

Maybe, just maybe, If Mike Brown was good at drafting and wasn't cheap the Bengals wouldn't be always looking down at the basement.

haughty moss

Yah they were fun to watch

honest umbra

yea

if u wanna support a team

go support the cardinals

they got a QB that will make you go crazy

No problem, honestly NFL is easily my favorite sporting league so I’m biased, but I really do think you’d like it if you have it a chance

A lot of colorful characters and amazing plays/games

honest umbra

sadly my city not having a team for all of my childhood made it hard to get into NFL

it goes soccer(football) > nba > mlb > nfl for me

Basketball is very fun. But between the Magic being dead for half of the last decade and hockey. I can only watch highlights time to time.

open sail

my team might not even play at home

rustic ore

Simply seal off the first front rows, limit how many fans can come in, and both demand social distancing and masks for games

It’s working for the NFL so far for the most part

dim kettle

The NBA is gonna be nothing but drama coming up. If the playoffs said anything

rustic ore
#

Yup

#

Let’s hopefully see them dial back the wokeness a bit please?

dim kettle
#

Is it wrong not to have sympathy for basketball players?

#

I mean they sure love telling their fans to fuck off when they go to LA or whatever.

rustic ore
#

I mean I have sympathy for them if they get injured/sick or if something bad happens in their personal lives but outside of that no

#

I don’t need to be preached at by multi millionaires about issues they themselves don’t actually care about/aren’t educated about

#

Also don’t have any sympathy for them in like contract disputes or when they ask for trades or whatnot

#

Like no one is forcing them to play a kid’s game for millions of dollars, they chose that life

dim kettle
#

After the Dwight Howard crap broke my heart. Yeah, I started looking at the league differently.

proud coyote
#

That was such a shitshow

rustic ore
#

Dwight aFeelsAceMan

proud coyote
#

So many people shitting on him for literally no reason

#

Like, so what if he’s gay anyways

#

And the fact that an accusation like that can be used as slander at all

#

Just horrible all around

rustic ore
#

Pretty sure he was talking about Dwight was acting when he wanted out from Orlando

#

But yeah you’re right

proud coyote
#

Oh... lol

rustic ore
#

His personal life is his personal life

proud coyote
#

I forgot about the Orlando thing, thought you guys were talking about personal life stuff still

dim kettle
#

Dwight was the reason I started watching basketball and when he left the way he did. I seriously question if I was a Dwight fan or a Magic fan.

rustic ore
#

And anyone taking shots at him for non criminal behavior that isn’t hurting anyone is fucked up

proud coyote
#

Do you guys like SVG?

rustic ore
#

I didn’t mind him

#

He sure as shit didn’t handle Dwight well at the end

dim kettle

I thought he was good. Well, until everyone started to outcoach him

hasty basin
#

Dwight was good in his Magic days but still couldn't get it done I guess

#

But he won with the Lakers so

proud coyote
#

Wasn’t his fault in the end at all

hasty basin
#

Yeah

proud coyote
#

That one final

The problem was Dwight was carrying the Magic the last 2 years. We couldn’t make good trades or bring anyone good in

I don't want him in the worst defensive nba team

Hachimura had worst defensive rating in history I think, Beal is a bad defender, stats wise Bryant is the worst defending starting center and Bonga is well Bonga

Nothing changes with Eil or Rivers. They had all the talent and HC and special fucked them time after time after time.

rustic ore
#

Hmm

#

Wonder what Big Ben would've done in either of those franchises, I think it's generally accepted he was the best QB from that class right?

dim kettle
#

And it goes back to even Drew Brees. He suffered through choking in SD.

#

I still think Big Ben and Rivers were almost fairly even. Except one has 2 titles and doesn't throw timely picks.

honest umbra
#

ok

#

but whos the best player out of 04

dim kettle
#

Larry Fitzgerald.

honest umbra
#

probably the only hofer right?

#

or are we putting the qbs in?

dim kettle
#

Best QB was Big Ben.

#

But Larry was the best guy in that draft in general.

honest umbra
#

sean taylor taken too young

#

maybe this convo is diff if hes alive

rustic ore
#

Best player overall?

#

Either Larry Fitz or Jared Allen imo

dim kettle
#

Winslow would've been an all star if he wasn't a fucking idiot on a motorbike.

rustic ore
#

Now he’s an all star in prison 😬

honest umbra
#

somebody say big ben and motorbike?

#

i read up on big ben

#

im surprised hes as unscathed in current media as he is

#

given his past LOL

dim kettle
#

Yeah, how he suddenly got married after his rape allegations got out.

rustic ore
#

I mean I’m sure they’ll come up again once he’s retires and people start talking about his eventual HOF induction

dim kettle
#

Or being banned from most Pittsburgh bars.

rustic ore
#

But yeah best player from the 04 class is probably Larry Fitz

honest umbra
#

its so hard to dislike fitz

rustic ore
#

Then you got a guy like Jared Allen in close 2nd imo

honest umbra
#

dude is genuinely such a nice human being

dim kettle
#

Steven Jackson was in there too.

rustic ore
#

Then probably Big Ben, Jason Peters, and then Rivers maybe

honest umbra
#

so fitz has catch a pass in like 250+ straight games or some shit like that right

rustic ore
#

Oh yeah Jackson was there

honest umbra
#

i wonder if thats in their mind

#

"give him the pass on the line, the ez one"

#

becuz thats what they did against the bills this weekend

#

LOL

dim kettle
#

I love looking at how great many players were in the first round then you see J.P. Losman.

rustic ore

not to say he cant catch other balls

honest umbra
#

nothing will hurt me more than watching rodgers wait so long to get drafted!

rustic ore
#

Tell me about it

dim kettle
#

I was too busy being 6. So I never saw it.

rustic ore
#

Looking back on it I’m just sad that Gruden passed up on him at #5 and took Cadillac Williams instead

honest umbra
#

oh yea i never saw any of it

#

i just love sport documentaries

#

the brady one was funny

#

the rodgers one was kinda sad

rustic ore
#

Shit he might just still be the HC in Tampa with another ring if he did take Rodgers

honest umbra
#

the 04 one was like "get over urself eli"

dim kettle
#

Cadillac Williams was really good. He just got hurt. A lot. And Gruden really liked Chris Simms. Don't ask me why.

honest umbra
#

who doesnt love chris simms

rustic ore
#

Me QueenKEKW

honest umbra
#

you're telling me

#

you have something against this guy, buc?

rustic ore
#

I mean he just comes off like a whiny asshole sometimes, guess he learned that well from working with Mike Florio for so long

honest umbra
#

nah im kidding

#

i dread this guys analysis

#

i dont think hes good at all

dim kettle
#

I think the biggest mistake Gruden and Allen made was not drafting Patrick Willis or Revis and picked Gaines Adams. A guy who isn't even alive anymore.

rustic ore
#

Yeah I know QueenKEKW

dim kettle
#

Well, imagine actually listening to analysis.

honest umbra
#

no no

#

listening to analysis is fine

#

listening to bad analysis is bad

#

the better analysts usually have their own podcasts or stuff

#

the ones who get the top tier jobs are so redundant

#

they repeat stuff from a telegrapher

dim kettle
#

A lot of them just have bad or predictable takes.

honest umbra
#

a lot of them pick one team per prediction to win a game

#

and when it goes really bad

#

they ignore it

dim kettle
#

Trust me, seeing analysts talk about Tom Brady this season has turned into a game.

#

He's washed. He's not. He;s washed.

rustic ore
#

Seems to just be a contest between who can suck him off the hardest and who can give the most boneheaded hot take

#

There really is no in between

#

Kinda sorta the same thing that happens with LeBron

honest umbra
#

legit i was gonna say that

#

they do the same to lebron

#

and when he retires

#

all of them will love each equally

#

"GOAT GOAT GOAT never a doubt in mind"

rustic ore
#

I don’t know if y’all have seen this but for me I’ve seen this weird state of mind development amongst mainstream “analysts” who can’t seem to fairly critique star players or faces of franchises/sporting leagues

#

They’ve like been deprived of their ability to see the world as varying shades of grey and instead can only see things as black or white

proud coyote
#

lebron would have to be elected president for many to regard him as the GOAT tbh

Rubio back in MINN lolz

def would not have picked toppin there

that is a very knicks pick

#

but i have no energy to express negativity for a fellow new yorker

#

hope he pops off for us

proud coyote
#

blake griffin 2 PogChamp

dry surge
#

only thing i cna hope for is that he shapes up rebounding, learns help defense fundamentals from thibs, and works on his corner 3s

#

that's all i can ask for

#

tyrese haliburton was 100% the pick to make there for NY

#

they desperately need guard talent

hollow wind
#

Gonna have to consult my brother on who tf these people are outside of the top 3 LOL

dry surge
#

they made a preliminary move so that they could move up to pick toppin if they neededc to, i don't see why they couldnt make a move for haliburton here

#

i only know the big names

#

i'm also a big deni fan

hollow wind
#

At least we got Lamelo in Charlotte

dim kettle
#

The Knicks will be in hell regardless until Dolan is gone. The only good that will come from the Knicks is more rants from Stephen A Smith

dry surge
#

deni is going to be a great player

proud coyote
#

haliburton was also the pick for the suns

#

IDK why they picked jalen lol

dry surge
#

well they did need frontcourt depth but

#

i would def not skip on haliburton if i'm any of these teams

#

can even pick him and trade for more assets/trade down

proud coyote
#

Don't see a world in which the spurs pass on him too

hollow wind
#

As far as I know, this is a fairly weak draft

proud coyote
#

only the top is weak, really

dry surge
#

yes its relatively weak

proud coyote
#

middle is the same as ever

#

next year is crazy though

dry surge
#

spurs definitely pick haliburton here

hollow wind
#

what pick does Portland have?

proud coyote
#

we already picked

#

Robert Covington

hollow wind
#

ah, I stopped watching after Lamelo

dry surge
#

i jsut find it fucking hilarious how the spurs didn't even try and haliburton drops to their laps

#

the rich get richer

proud coyote
#

evan fake basketball fan

dry surge

oh shit spurs didn't pick haliburton

hollow wind

guilty

dry surge

is there some medical report that they have that we don't

proud coyote
#

must be

dim kettle

I thought Isaac Okoro was gonna go into the Spurs lap. But Cleveland snatched him.

proud coyote

could be another laremy tunsil situation

hollow wind

not that interested until I see them as pros

okoro would not drop that far lol

proud coyote

robert covington is a pro lol

#

we traded our pick for him

you guys just beat him

haliburton IRL

please knicks trade up with the 23rd pick and other assets to get haliburton

proud coyote

this is an incredible steal

haughty moss

Haliburton nice

proud coyote
#

even if they don't need him they can trade him

haughty moss
#

easily

proud coyote
#

Fox might leave as well

dim kettle
#

I don't think the Kings needed another PG. I mean, you're really giving up on Fox already? I would've gone for a SG like Nesmith. But what do I know about NBA drafting?

dry surge
#

you don't always draft by need

proud coyote
#

he's by far the bpa

dry surge
#

i'm still shocked spurs didn't pick him

#

he's a very pop type player

#

lmao i totally forgot randle was on the knicks

dim kettle
#

All those PFs the Knicks have.

dry surge
#

toppin is by far the better fit next to mitchell robinson

#

but randle also has an albatross of a contract

haughty moss
#

Kira gotta go to NO here

dry surge
#

so i find it hard to move

#

also no russ trade please

#

i might actually pop a vein if that happens

dim kettle

I'm still surprised Chicago didn't trade up to get James Wiseman. That would've been such Bulls thing to do.

haughty moss

let's gooo

Yeah I predicted NO was gonna pick him.

dry surge
#

he should've gone earlier

honest umbra

man im surprised haliburton dropped to the kings

#

i like toppin alone for the fact that hes from NY and he seems fun to watch lol

idk how he'll be as a fit, i thought they might have picked a PG

im so curious to see where cole anthony will go

Man, did the Bulls reach for Patrick Williams.

honest umbra

yea, that definitely seemed like a reached

#

could have easily traded down

celest zephyr
#

one thing's for sure

#

the knicks will ruin toppin's potential

honest umbra
#

why did we not get a promised lamelo ball interview

dim kettle
#

the knicks will ruin toppin's potential
No, they'll just trade him when he get's good.

celest zephyr

or that

haughty moss

hmm nesmith interesting

did celtics just pick the best shooter

How does Boston keep getting good potential players into their laps?

honest umbra

well tbf

celtics are the closest to the contenders

of the teams that have drafted thus far

they see a player like this available, they pounce right away

whereas other teams have far more urgent needs

I guess luke is good too

honest umbra

def shamet with more potential

lets see what they do with the 19th pick

dry surge

my guess

#

this will be a preliminary move for a package for harden

honest umbra
#

not bad

#

i wonder who will be on the nets bench after all said and done

dry surge

well they'll be for sure losing dinwiddie

nice

haughty moss

dry draft

celest zephyr

i disagree

honest umbra
#

only dry because there was no tournament

#

no pickups

#

no huge evaluations

#

in hindsight, a good amount of players might come out of this draft

celest zephyr

i think wiseman is the best pick just because the warriors is a great organization

honest umbra

i wonder what happens to their timeline if klay is indeed injured

haughty moss

players are good

draft still dry

dim kettle

I still don't like a lot of these kids who aren't even 20 yet suddenly playing for the NBA. You would rarely see that in any other sport.

i'm a big deni fan

washington is very lucky to have him

honest umbra

so awesome to see a lot of nigerian based players drafted today

haughty moss
#

Good pick for philly

dim kettle
#

The problem is young basketball players don't look at college as something that can help them grow their game and learn to become basketball stars. They just look at college as a one-year pit stop where they can get some national TV exposure before heading to the NBA level.

#

And as a result, more times than not in today's NBA, it can take them up to 2 to 4 years before you can get a lot of impact out of these top picks.

haughty moss
#

the organizations value youth so it makes sense

#

they are willing to draft the teen with upside

#

harder to resist the incentives to leave school early

#

knicks should grab green

dry surge
#

rj hampton

#

then you'll have

#

RJ RJ back court

#

it must happen

haughty moss
#

im trippin nvm he got drafted lol

#

multitasking

dry surge
#

LMAO

haughty moss
#

loll

#

RJ nice yeah

dim kettle
#

And you wonder why the league isn't al that competitive. Back 20-30 years when you drafted a player in the NBA it can change a franchise fate immediately. It still happens today, but like I said, more times then not, it can take 2 to 4 years before they can make an impact.

#

And you have to think. The NBA is endorsing the youth like this is actually pretty unhealthy. Reality is, because a lot of these 19-20 year old kids don't have all the tools to handle being a professional athlete with all that money and privilege being thrown at you. Not everybody can handle that.
