    Sure, I’m biased but don’t think it’s too big of a hot take to say Houston > Detroit and it’s not close at all.

    LOL

    Jalen went with the Nas 'Ether' route on this topic...I wouldn't have been that hard my man. Just say "I really enjoy the city of Houston, no complaints at all!" but he put the dagger in the heart then twisted it lol.

    Needs to stop getting baited into ******** on Detroit. He falls for that like he fell for Cade's crossover.

    Honestly, as a fan of the team I would rather he stay in the gym and go back to his apartment.
