Giannis x Degree Deoderant event. During q&a someone in the crowd (Wild n Out member) asked if there was any NBA player that could use a stick of Degree who would it be. Yanni said Bam. :lol:

The Olympics. The highlight dunks. Him going to get his degree the morning of game 7. The missed free throws in Orlando. The ASG.

What Vince was doesn’t equal what he should have been. we are retiring a jersey based off a 2 playoff appearances?

So Ant is a HOF player already?

This is the type of energy I needed to start my week.
Saw the thread jump 4 pages and figured it was already media day with camp coming up. Didn't know this was the type of madness in here today. LOL.
 
Speak more on the event.

How did you get invited? (No disrespect)

Was Thanasis there?

I do social stuff so got the invite. They had a court with an 8foot rim and people were just shooting around and stuff. We got goodie bags with deoderant sticks, and they had drinks at the bar. Got myself a “Greek Freak” which was basically an old fashioned. They had jerseys in Bucks colors that said Degree on the front and you could put something on the back. He came, was on the court for like 5 min. I got a vid of him doing a soft 1v1 and he almost yammed on the dude. :lol: Then did a q&a with the host and took a few from the crowd then he dipped.

Was a small venue surprisingly but I like it better that way. Few bball influencers were there, Kenny Chao there in black.
 
Again, the criteria for a team retiring one of its jerseys is WHATEVER THE TEAM WANTS IT TO BE. It’s not an NBA award and it’s not the Hall of Fame.

It’s honestly more a marketing/fan service thing than anything else so, IMO, silly to debate whether someone “deserves” it or not.
 
If the city of Toronto wanted to retire Vince Carter's jersey, I would understand it completely.

This younger generation of stars have outwardly expressed how HE is mostly responsible (Along with Nash) for the basketball boom this city has seen over the last 20 years. ( Maybe osh kosh bosh osh kosh bosh can speak on it. No pressure )

So yea, TO ME, The Raptors throwing his #15 up in the rafters is a no-brainer.

He hitched himself to the wrong place if he wanted deep post-season runs to get his recognition
 
Has anyone ever won a championship and still proceeded to seem like such a loser in a single year as Tatum? Hard to fathom honestly.
 
Lebron dedicated himself to the weight room and his body instead of spending hours working on things he's not naturally good at and I don't blame him. He has his game since high school. For him its all about how he could maintain his playstyle which i feel like he has done better than anyone else in history. Dude is 40 and moves like he's 28 years old. And that's not to say he hasn't worked on his game either I'm just saying I think LeBron knows what he's doing. Bro is in season 22

He’s improved everything but his handles though and even then he’s above average

This isn't true in the slightest.
