    I was a fan up until the decision... and the Morey feud... it's just so much overcompensating shameless self promotion.

    Bro literally played his entire career without gun charges, being involved in gangs, no rape or gambling scandals and did this while going to 10 Finals (8 in a row) and being the all time career leader in points scored. But he's overhyped AF.

    I feel sorry for anyone that never allowed themselves to enjoy his game since the beginning.

    If I'm being honest I don't love how Kerr has managed the USA team for the past couple years.

    let this finally put to rest the Embid to Houston clamoring. He’s going to fall off quick as he ages with those injuries. Morey won’t win a chip with him.

    Are there reasons people are allowed to dislike athletes outside of rape and murder? Please send the list of what is permitted.

    Also: a player can be arrogant, his game can be good, and he can not be a murderer. Those are not all the same things, believe it or not.

    I'm not aware of Draymond Green raping or murdering anyone. Want to write me a sonnet about his universal lovability too?

    You're free to dislike who you want. Just too many people hated him from the get go and missed out on a career that may never be duplicated.

    I've had 4 decades of enjoyment from Jordan and LeBron. It'll be sad when he does retire because who knows who that next person will be to step up. I don't see anyone in the NBA now that can do it.

    If some of the Sudanese national team guys are looking for roster spots, Marial Shaykok (6'6!) and Carik Jones (6'0) can play. They far exceed what Hinton, Samuels, and Nate Williams bring to the court.

    Serbia and Latvia will have to play quite well to beat South Sudan.

    Damn looks like Alvarado tore his achilles in that game, but I guess not because he kept playing? Odd

    Feel like Ivey will get poached soon. This is an unbelievable coaching job he’s doing.
