Official 2017 NBA Offseason Thread: Media Days begin

[BIG LEEMELONE]

BK STAND TF UP!!! MARCY!

 

[abematic]

Brooklyn got a nice little squad there

 

[addict4sneakers]

My main man Acy about to lead the Nets to the promised land

 

[Hank Scorpio]

Pretty much. They want black folks to shut their mouths, be docile and feel grateful to be allowed to even make money in the first place, even if it's pennies compared to GMs/etc.

Not really. It's just annoying to see and hear someone's arrogance reach foolish levels. There's a reason why he's being generally repudiated by the media.

 

[LebronHasMoreFinalsMVPs]

Houston is really more southwest than south.

?

 

[cassanova brown]

Not solely referring to Lavar, just in the general sense when a black person decides to speak up, there's an outrage as if we have the gall to do it. Is Lavar brash and has he said some outlandish stuff? Sure. But people questioning his parenting when his kids all appear to cool, that's pretty silly.

"not really" lol

 

[gaseousfashion]

Has the same durability as Embiid himself.

 

[suavamente]

Lavar is like a lot of strong black fathers or Uncle's I've been around. Mainstream just ain't use to seeing a black man speak his mind and with some authority.

This is so true... ever thought if they were both white how the narrative would be different?

 

[noblekane]

how u get into buc em living room?

Look at Floyd vs McGregor. It's there at some levels even though Mayweather has other ancillary issues. Or how Tom Brady has 'passion' vs Cam's (or insert other black player) 'arrogance'.

 

[freeze]

nah bae

 

[Maximus Meridius]

exactly there isn't any lol

I mean if Bobby Knight was black he wouldn't be loved by the media the way he is.

A black coach doing all that ****. lol He woulda been done a long, long time age.

 

[freeze]

Nobody said nothing about that Dame shot that sunk Houstons battle ship??

Or CP3 hitting that random buzzer beater on the spurs, while also tearing his hammie?

I would've been broken if I was a die hard for either of those teams

 

[D StaXX]

When Dez screams on the sideline he's the angry immature black man.
When Tom Brady does it, it's his will to win.

 

[617collector]

So Russell, Lin, Carroll n Mozgov are leading the Nets into the Playoffs?

 

[brandon3000]

Lebron has every right to be "concerned and frustrated" by the Cavs off season... surprised it took him so long to put it out there.
