would the PA even be mad about that? KD could play for whatever this year and he's still getting his supermax next year

Nah, Marcus Thompson is legit. He probably just rushed it up to break the news without a copy editor getting a pass on it.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
I was really hoping Nick Young would finally Get Paid this year but as long as he's happy wherever.

KD is a time traveler who hates the NBA and who has come back to destroy it.

He really only has average height and athleticism for a basketball player of 2180.

Nah I get what he's talking about but that kind of look is everywhere. But so are stealth supporters of the #stopwhitegenocide movement. Like the entire middle of America is just chock full of white morons who are terrified their place on top is being chipped away at

Anyway gently caress every single Ainge

well obviously gently caress every single Ainge, but i stay away from social media so i dunno what # white genocide is. I imagine some sort of reaction to the big spike in the the rate of middle american deaths in the last decade or so? There's some kinda crisis going on in that community and it seems like it might be a touch racist to blame it on solely on their whiteness.


are those folks morons for despairing about the systematic crushing of their economic opportunities, decades of stagnant wages+rising cost of living, unaffordable healthcare, opioid epidemic and surging death rate? Or are you just saying that being an unstylish white person means you're Racist and Dumb because that doesn't seem like a great joke to me, almost like it creates an unfairly divisive venn diagram, what with it being a plain unassailable fact that most-all white people choose to dress like a loaf of wet bread dripping out of the sack while bragging about how convenient and comfortable it is.

Is that the most generous undermarket pay cut a superstar player has ever given their team? I mean I can't think of anything even close to that. Some of Jordan's old deals maybe? But then again it was an entirely different salary structure back then.

If you call Dirk the current decade a superstar, he's given massive discounts to the Mavericks up until recently. And Duncan has given discounts as well.

But they were 30+ years old.
