He’s truly delusional. It’s sad at this point. Or he trollin.

 

[adobecs4]

You don’t go to the mall,do you?

People still go to the mall? Damn

 

[WASHED KING]

I’m obviously asking for your opinion here. What context do you think it’s ok for you to use AAVE? No need to me daft now.

If the person is black.

That's it.

 

[100027]

I find it super hard to believe, people are rocking bulls hats like that . Especially here

Feel like this just shows Lids doesn’t sell that many NBA hats

 

[wavycrocket]

That bubble was so phony

You and EYE get this. He’s trying to come up with word salad and irrelevant hypotheticals to talk around this.

 

[addict4sneakers]

Too bad GSW normally runs a right ship because it’s clear as day iggy doesn’t mess with Draymond. Could get spicy later on though

Do people still do the matching sneaker x hat combo? Jordans are probably pumping up the sale of Bulls merch.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

That bubble was so phony

It was the purest form of basketball!

Breh, that **** had people losing their minds

Didn’t freeze buy championship gear?

 

[WASHED KING]

Not gunna lie I haven't seen a Bulls hat since the Karmaloop, Obey and snapback days.

Don't start the asterisk talk today. EYE got time today.

EYE will light this thread up.

 

[wavycrocket]

Need more Pat Bev slander. All that wolfing on first take.

I mean, he knows exactly what he doing . The antics and entertainment and name recognition is what keeps him signed and on the radar of teams.

He’s damn near maxed out his career.

All dudes do these day is walk the mall ,go to Lids and Auntie Annie’s

Wetzel's in my local mall, but yes, sounds accurate.

 

[akajae]

Hornets player needs help. Basketball is the last thing he should be worried about.

Isn’t that where rappers meet up to fight? I swear it’s always a mall where they get beat up and their chain snatched lol

 

[toneboi76]

Steph was really impressive last night and he was just doing drill work. The shimmy fade and up and under on AD was nasty fr. If he can stay healthy all year they’re winning 65+

Hoopers hoop
Just like AAU

 

[lynchpin33]

Blaming your injury on coming off the bench is wild and something I don't think I've ever heard before

It's Russ, that is enough right there. I never thought a team would buy in (forced) to box out for a player to get his rebound numbers, for multiple seasons, but yet there we were.

at Russ being a professional athlete that doesn’t know how to warm up or be ready in different situations…Him being coddled all those years x his lack of self awareness lead to the nastee outcome now

Blame that coddling on the NBA, Jordan Brand, Nike, OKC front office brass and The Big O wanting a pay day and to be relevant again.

Steph game ages so well. His ability to move without the ball and being a constant threat is amazing to watch. Shooting was a bit off, but he was still putting pressure on lakers defense

Seems like everybody just tolerating yo till the next blowup when they can wash their hands of him…N Draymond knows it too that’s why he carrying on and lowkey trolling

Bruh, this is idiotic. Let’s just move on.

Let's not because the equivalent being drawn is offensive and would only be done by someone who never actually had to deal with the conundrum of not sounding too "ethnic" for the dominant culture and not sounding too assimilated for your own.

Me taking offense at Chet Hanks' terrible accent should not be met with snide hypotheticals about me knowing simple ******* SAT words. A supposed ally should do better, especially when being told exactly how to do better by the people they claim to be allied to. Inauthentic use of AAVE or any other vernacular is in no way identical to code switching or sounding white.

Well said — and I completely agree. Talking to this dude we might as well talk to a wall, though. He’s not getting it and isn’t making an attempt, instead is getting defensive and redirecting the conversation to **** that doesn’t even matter/is completely irrelevant.

Only time you’ll catch me in a mall is for an iPhone issue, and yes I’ll def stop by the food court when I’m there

Yep! Very well said.

Once again, darthska was WILDING. Big tripping. Smh
