Jahlil Okafor is proof of how a losing culture messes with young players' minds.

And had 1 win. You think the ceo of Sony would be happy if sold 1 ps4.. he is the ceo of Sony right :stopitslime:
If Microsoft or Apple had a down year and ended up in the NEGATIVE you think folks there would be happy?

he wouldnt give a fukk if he was losing in LA

So you agree Philly is more toxic than LA :mjpls:

That having a legend with veterans is a better situation than Robert covington leading team huddles:mjpls:

He's a 19 year old in a situation without any veteran leadership to help him. Him doing this is sort of expected.

I recommend reading Jalen rose new book to help breakdown the impact situations and veterans can have on a players development :francis:

B-b-but the losing doesn't mean anything in Philly...

B-b-b-but they can just keep tanking to get top draft picks...

So far their top picks are...

A point guard they traded...

A big man who is a great defender and rebounder...

A big man who going on two years in the league is most known for telling Kim Kadrashian to "slide in his DM"

A big man who is getting his Sagat on and Tiger Uppercutting and TIger kneeing boston cacs as soon as the sun goes down...

#trusttheprocess

Can A philly fan tell me what step in the process requires your starting center to be on world star beating people up?

My Pops Forever RIP
Come on breh.. the Bulls never sunk to this level of the Sixers blatant tanking. They were just a bad team. Just like my Clipps of yester- year, they never tanked they just f*ckin' sucked
The Sixers fukking suck too. It's not as if you see them and go "man they can win these games they just choose not to." they're not passing up good players to sign crappy ones

and for the millionth time, they haven't been this bad for this long.

I don't see Tyus Jones out here snuffing people and he can't even sniff the court on historically the soon to be league's worst franchise ever. Why were giving Jah a pass when he woulda been just fine getting his ass kicked in LA?

:laugh: @ feeling sorry for Jah having to hear these comments outside of work while Karl-Anthony Towns probably hears it everyday from KG in practice.



There's a clear difference between a champion veteran and some random on the street saying it

Warriors were never this bad you idiot


Bad is bad. The Warriors were far from a contender, if a NBA 3rd overall pick who's making millions can't compartmentalize this shyt and realize this is just the first few weeks of what should be a really special career and the kind of life that the gods and goddesses of ancient Greece and Egypt lived, well then this dude has no business being in the league or living among the cream of the crop in this world. He's coming off like a short sighted spoiled little ignorant bytch that is completely blind to the once in a million lifetime opportunity that presents itself to him right now. If he's doing all this to push his way out of Philly I can only speak for myself born and raised in South Philly and a lifelong sports fan when I say he's doing a good job of turning the fan base off of him. BUTTTT he's also gota realize, we're no fukking idiots, a lil acting up isn't gona have Philly fans running him out of town, unless it's getting us a KD or franchise type talent back, this little punk is here to stay, until he can bring us back a franchise player to build around or until he crumbles under the pressure and hostility of the Philly media and turns into a bust and we let him walk to go be a 7th man for a perennial 6th or 7th seed.

It's not even the All Star break of his rookie season and bruh out there getting drunk (at 19), speeding on bridges, and getting hammers drawn at his head.
He need to Slow Down (c) Mos Def.
Honestly it seems like he acting like a nikka who got money for the first time. Like he never had this level of freedom or money before and he just wilding out

It's a factor but not the main reason, he's just a kid..people need to get over it. He got suspended, he will serve his time and move on from this. That was just a bad night, the other 2 things he did..I don't really see them as a big deal since most kids have done that
