The Official NBA Season Thread: Derrick Rose Retires 🌹

[wavycrocket]

Wonder how many Zach Lowe clips were posted in here compared to Kendrick Perkins Point is Perkins rage baits and people bite and post his clips here so it works

A lot (especially in here)….but the “blog boy” became hated after a while.

So bring in the barbershop takes on steroids 24/7.

Zach made his mark tho, in the mid 10s where it was an appetite for this content. Grantland was HUGE. Bill Simmons doesn’t even have juice anymore.

It’s simply not the era for his type of sports journalism anymore. Reflective of society at large, at this point.

Shoni Schimmel had that “Off the Rez” doc 10 years ago. It was fire. Wonder if related?





Edit* - just googled to see what Shoni was up to….and

Former WNBA’s Shoni Schimmel says at assault sentencing: ‘To Indian Country, this is not who I am and it won’t be who I am’

Schimmel's victim said the 2021 attack was the culmination of monthslong psychological and physical abuse.

I hate when people combine womens and mens sports statistics and records. it's obviously silly.

it's two different sports.

What about comments like this?

What about comments like this?

I find this less dumb than combining records since it's more of a cultural conversation.

But even then I still wouldn't do it, I don't see what it adds.

Hmmm...

I have a park a few blocks from my house with multiple full courts (full wood backboards, double rims) and it’s like this.

The courts are often busy but not with serious ballers.

this
last time i went to play in the suburbs half the people wearing vans, then i played in the city and half of em are older folks
serious ball players rarely be in the parks anymore, i guess just how things go, i would be indoors all day if i could too, but the competition and games used to be better growing up vs now

If you ask me I doubt he honestly believes those words.

Like how do you even make a cross-gender comp?

What are you REALLY saying?

"They" absolutely HATE to see his dominance. They hate it.

Hating yes, but he does have a point. Having Bron in his portfolio helps out A LOT.

Wonder if he gave everyone the new iPhone like he did with Clippers to butter them up before he started stealing rebounds? And people got it confused with fake hustle and playing hard.
