you literally think a person saying their NBA team of choice being better than the fucking 76ers is a 'schtick'

a literal thing you think.

If he were still playing, Danny Ainge would fill up the voicemail box after every game.

aaaand Onuaku's back to the Vipers. Come on Morey, the people want underhanded free throws

Hopefully he can improve his conditioning to the point where he isn't gassed after playing 4 garbage time minutes. I want a real sample size on those free throws.

The importance of this mission cannot be overemphasized

quote:

The premise: The people of Lilliput, a fictional island nation that appears in the 1726 novel “Gulliver’s Travels,” want to join an international basketball league. But to be competitive enough for that, they import “Michael Jordan,” a man who turns out not to be the NBA Hall-of-Famer but happens to have the same name. This merger of his life passions is not a pipe dream. Morey said the show will debut in Houston within 18 months.

“It’s definitely happening,” he said.

I am ready.

I'm not really into the fake masculinity artisinal axe culture, but is there a way to do something to beard ends to not make them like brillow pads that scratch the poo poo out of you?

A thought about George Karl and Phil Jackson: it's funny how much poo poo they could have avoided had they just not used racist whistle words associated with young black men. You could say, Carmelo was a selfish rear end in a top hat an didn't play in a team concept, JR Smith was a middle class kid who wanted to be a tough guy and a star without doing the work necessary. Phil could have said that Carmelo has a weird group of hangers on that might be bilking him of his money, see the digital athlete bullshit. But because they inherited those old inherently pejorative frames for discussing black men, it became a controversy. They're people, their actions as people may reflect their upbringing and it may reflect them just being assholes (JR Smith).
To make it racial seems almost purposefully inflammatory, like the type of thing someone says after they've had 2 drinks past anything like luicidity and just want to engage or argue with someone

Yeah if you rub a little oil in every morning and then maybe once or twice a week shampoo and conditioner like you would your head hair then you don't get the abrasiveness and they are actually quite pleasant to touch and run your fingers through.

However when you're playing basketball it will still catch all your sweat and smell quite bad.
