Not surprised.

Watch him play.

Most nights he seems scared of the basket. Never even looks up at the rim.

Let the implosion begin…

PG loves Russ

and Lue is a solid and respected coach

They won't have any problems

 

[Complex]

I hope the coon gets canceled

Too bad this wasn't widely known before Utah dragged his pedo ass out to represent their organization

You're a star basketball player in college and you have to sleep with a middle school girl

Here's the ending of the game.

Let the implosion begin…

I think they'll be aight, they focus on Russ and his strengths and won't ask him to do things that aren't a part of his game.

The Lakers did him wrong.

I could be wrong but I think he'll do just fine for the Clippers.

 

[TIMEISMONEY]

Here's the ending of the game.

the level of pride these older guys had in the last clip, these fags now will never have

Hate this for him, I just hope he can somehow get the knee right to have some kind of career:

 

[geechiedan]

Yeah I hate to sound like all the other old men out here yelling at clouds but...

These NBA dudes ain't what they used to be.

Skills are out of this world and they would smash teams from back in the day but...

There's something missing inside they chest.I can't deny it anymore.

Who the fuck told them that fans all around the world want to watch layup lines in an all star game???

You don't want to play a competitive game, that's fine. But at least give us some fucking highlights. At least give us that.

The older guys understood that they had a league to build. They would give the fans something to cheer about and talk about the next day. The guys now take everything for granted. Entitled af.

to play devils advocate tho..

honestly what player wants to risk injury in a meaningless game??

lebron went up for a block at the basket got his fingers caught up IN the bucket rim and damn near broke his pinky...was out the rest of the game and PROBABLY gonna be out for 2 or 3 games AFTER that in the reg season..... happy now???

should the game have been as relaxed as it was? they should have made a better effort on defense BUT in their defense...aint nobody tryng to blow out their knee for a pointless game homie.

UNC IS NOT TO BE FUCKED WITH!

My issue is that people want to turn this shit into something that is new, when the argument about All-Star games being pointless and an unnecessary injury risk is not new.

Ray Fosse comes to mind and that was 53 years ago.

Issue y'all got is in order to get those stars, the opposing team is going want Bam and ain't no way y'all trade him.

That may be the case, but some of Nate's former players didn't have anything nice to say about him.

 

[D'Evils]

Nate McMillan out as coach in Atlanta.

The writing was on the wall once they promoted Landry Fields as the new GM in December...

New guy always wants his guy...

JJ Redook is a moron, he constantly puts down prior generations in an effort to support current players.
