https://sports.yahoo.com/kyrie-irving-hates-thanksgiving-dont-celebrate-s-041159653.html [...] For Irving especially, it makes perfect sense. Irving’s mother was born into the Standing Rock Sioux tribe before she was adopted, and he was given the Lakota name Little Mountain — or “Hela” in the Lakota language — by the tribe when he went to visit in North Dakota in August. “There was a certain point in my life where I had come almost at a crossroads with my dad, my sister, my friends, my grandparents, and I had no idea kind of what direction to go into because I had lost the sense of a foundation,” Irving told ESPN’s Brian Windhorst in August. “Knowing my mom passed and left me such a powerful, empowering family such as Standing Rock … to be a part of it now, this is family for life.” Many were taught that the first Thanksgiving was a time when the pilgrims and Native Americans came together in peace upon their arrival in North America. However thousands of Native Americans were killed due to disease brought over from Europe, and the time marked the start of the slaughter and future removal of the majority of Native Americans from the United States. Today, many simply view the holiday as a time to get together with family and celebrate a meal. When (if) you do that on Thursday, enjoy it. But don’t forget why those like Irving aren’t celebrating, too.
Schroder for Carmelo, seems like a good deal. What did the Rockets get for their dead weight? Luxury tax savings & more dead weight. @Carl Herrera
You must have been listening to all our beat writers in Memphis. They all believe this, every one of them.
Steven Kerr getting exposed for the b**** he is as well. You're a b**** and you know you're a b****. Go ahead, hand off that clipboard off again. **They'll be fine when the MVP & leader comes back.
