they asked him to name who he wanted to play with and he answered, then the interviewer crowbarred that Curry shyt in out of nowhere and he answered that and gave his justification as to why


at least he's not some passive aggressive attention whoring fakkit incessantly trying to control the narrative

MJ had a 3peat before and after that season he took off

Karl Malone played 19 seasons in the league and played 80+ games in all but 2 of them. Won MVP and was all-defensive first team at 36 years old. These 20 somethings in their athletic prime with no history of major career threatening injuries have no fukking excuse, especially with access to the best nutrition, diet, fitness, strength, and conditioning regimens modern sports science can create and money can buy. Wilt averaged 45.8 minutes a game for his CAREER, playing in Converse throughout the damn 60s while being literally attacked and beaten by opposing defenses night in, night out. Now bytch ass AAU babies get hamstring tightness or minor bursitis and they suddenly need Fortnite "load management" sessions for days or weeks at a time. shyt is shameful

One of the most shameless displays of dap fishing. You knew these rockheads were gonna eat this utter nonsense up too.

 

[intruder]

To be fair, it was a half court game at that time. A lot slower

You obviously never saw the Sonics with Payton and Kemp and other similar teams play.

That nuggets team (with Kendall Gill, Laphonso Ellis, Motumbo and Macmoud Raouf) that eliminated the Sonics as the first 8th seed to eliminate a #1 seed was also knows for being uptempo or as we used to call them "run and gun" type offenses. Same with th Derrick Coleman/Kenny Anderson Nets teams.

Truth is the game was more physically punishing back then. More physical play and harder fouls were allowed. Handchecking was also allowed and dudes were expected to NOT give up dunks and layups whereas these days a dude goes to for a dunk most Cs who's responsibility is to protect the rim typically get ouut the way

Mike speaking the truth. And im sure Kobe feels the same way

Along with every single ball player that ever laced them up and gave their all on the court every night.

I was never the biggest MJ fan throughout his career, but I watched him give the same effort a hundred times punishing the Bullets and the Hornets on a regular Monday night in November as he gave while playing the Knicks and Pacers in April/May during the playoffs.

I wish I had load management at work to supplement my vacation days, so that I can be a more effective employee when it matters.

mid rather have mid day naps like a kindergartner if we being honest

Right after lunch

but that’ll never happen so can’t live in fantasy land

Magic ripped it too. Even brought up flying econ class going to games. I get it people playing more these days, so they should cut season short and players cant complain about the the reduced $

 

[Primetime21]

well yea if you aren't hurt you should be playing, why do people have a problem with that

Jordan broke his foot in the 80s

Jordan retired the first time due to gambling

And he came back THREE years removed from his last title and played for FREE

nah dont try to justify the bullshyt. He was in his prime playing age with no injury. He took a year off. Miss me with the crying about an athlete that legit has a chronic condition while bigging up this dude. MJ can't say shyt.

 

[DeeJay]

Aau and youth basketball is the main cause of this
These kids are coming into the league with the knees of a 30 year old vet
