As for the frat talk I literally had it earlier this morning in real life
Basically all the things said in here were said
Hazing is stupid and I already have a brother I don't see enough and I didn't need to get branded to call him my brother
Also the black co-opting of white college "Greek" culture never made any sense to me. Why would we sign up to treat each other the way white people in frats were treating each other? The way they wish they could still treat us? We had an opportunity to do it better and just did the same stupid juvenile ****, but with dancing!

I was in a Frat my freshman/sophomore years in college. The only form of hazing was them yelling brotherhood **** at you for a couple hours a week and making you do push ups.
They realized I wasn't paying dues and only showing up at parties to smash the white womens so they kicked my black *** out
Looking back, it was a waste of time, but I don't regret it because I smashed A LOT of *****es and made connections I would have never even made had I not joined.

There were a couple lists posted yesterday evening:
Not 100% sure yeah I think they’re keeping the OG 50 and just adding 25 more players. Players from the last 25 years to be added should include:
Of course Kobe & Lebron.
Speculating on: Dwight, Carmelo, Russ & AD
Other Locks will probably be:
Dirk
Duncan
KG
KD
Curry
Kidd
Harden
Nash
Giannis
Wade
AI
Kawhi
Cp3
TMac?
Dominique Wilkins got snubbed last time so he’ll probably be included this time.
That’s already 21 players

This is always been a weird discussion point to me. Of course, if you drop even a modern average Power 5 college athlete into the NBA in the 1940s, they would likely be one of the best players in the league.
Dropping someone who takes advantage of modern training, nutrition, equipment into and all white league where guys had two jobs in the off-season and were playing with Converses would be laughable. I don't think that should be the standard though. All you can do is compare athletes to the competition and the era they played in.
Who knows, 70 years from now there might be genetically engineered players with cybernetic enhancements in the NBA. people will say "How would Michael Jordan compare to these cyborgs? He'd barely be in the league!"

The golden age of the NBA if you ask me. Players were players back then without the influence of the WOKE Mob and BLM. My grandparents couldn't attend these games but they were proud Celts fans and so am I.

Nothing sadder than a 35 year old repping his Boy’s Club from 16 years ago
See this type of BS everyday.
I get asked sometimes by these old white dudes after meetings which frat I belong to, and their faces turn stone cold when I tell them I never joined one.

JR Smith going to JR Smith. He forget the receipts are still available.
Kenyon Martin described the time he almost beat up J.R. Smith over a popcorn prank | For The Win (usatoday.com)
I'm in a frat, but certainly not mad over his comment.

I'm not a Philly fan and I'm not familiar with the locker room situation with the Sixers so forgive me but was Ben Simmons not well-liked in the locker room? Between doc Rivers comments after the game 7 loss ("I don't know if Ben can be the point guard of a championship team"), Embiid throwing him under the bus after the game and now Danny Green openly talking about life after Ben's departure in detail, I'm starting to get the vibe that maybe people didn't like it Ben Simmons.

The access you get via frats is cool... That's been the only part that seems appealing.
