    So yall really not gonna give a 19 year old a pass? Yall the type to put athletes on pedestals and ? . They just human.

    Dude came in and did stupid ? at 19, and this year at 22 even though he got no tick and wasnt even given a chance he kept it real professional. If that dont show progress and growth, what does?

    All im saying is im willing to forgive what someone did at a young ass age. I know I personally wouldnt wanna be defined by what I did at 19.

    All I’m saying is that your expectations are too low.

    19 year olds can get shipped over seas to die for this country

    You telling me that if I offered you a 7 figure salary at 19 and said - “In return I’m asking you to play 9 months of basketball for our organization” ...

    You’d be on some “Mope around, woe is me” ? ?

    ? GTFOH.


    Lil nig was entitled and blew his opportunity before a cast of more talented, hungry cats took his spot.

    And you want me to “give him a pass”.

    I’m not giving him anything. I’m sitting here watching the consequences of his actions.

    What expectations bro? I expect ? of all age to ? up, especially if they are younger. You clearly dont.

    I got 0 expectations for any of these cats off the court. I expect them to be like me and you. Give a 19 year old who never had ? a few mil and hes probably gonna act like a 19 year who never had ? that just gotta few mil.

    Overall, people get passes, especially for ? they did younger.

    How long you gonna hold that dumb ? above Okafor? Just wondering.

    ZERO expectations, huh?

    I see we holding our young black men to a pretty high standard out here...



    Btw there’s nothing wrong with making a mistake - that’s called being human.

    A fault Okafor for his ATTITUDE. I don’t care who you are ... you always have complete control of that in any situation.

    And frankly I don’t care about dude. He can continue to do all the “dumb ? ” he wants. What I have a problem with is this notion that everyone should bend over backwards and make concessions for his ? behavior because he was “young”.

    Nah, ? that.

    He opted to be a professional athlete. He’s getting paid like a professional athlete.

    He can face the consequences of his actions - just like a professional athlete, would.

    terrible loss no offense at all down the stretch. Casey really took out jv when we went on a 7-0 run with him and puts in ibaka at 5 as clippers immediately proceed to go on a 12-3 run. Then if that wasnt bad enough, in the last few moments when we needed rebounds to possibly tie/win he keeps jv on the bench who had 15 ? rebounds as DJ proceeds to grab 2 crucial ones to seal the win. His subs are ? sometimes

    Daaayuuumn them boys is ass without Kyrie...smh...overachieving bums...had Mirotic and Portis looking like Bron and Wade lmaoo

    Now let’s check out some real stats, that actually mean something..




    They said Korver was too old, they said Wade was washed, they tried to clown me when I said Bron would bring out the best in Jeff Green..

    Speaking of, rose said he might need surgery

    And I think he could change his name to saran because it's a wrap after that

    Back to back games where we had to overcome a double digit deficit in order to win

    Cliff took over late in the 3rd and controlled the game while Harden got some good rest and was able to play the closer.

    Also one more thing that needs to be brought up because the narrative is hard to change once it's set by the media, Harden has been pretty damn good on defense.

    After the atrocious 2015-2016 season he was solid last year but this year he's actually impacting games on that side of the court and has been making some crucial defensive plays
