What the fuck are they even talking about?

You ever see any of the main players on a championship team talking this bullshit

Yes.

Why are you so offended by another man's hobby or passion?

This is the cover of this Month's GQ:

Trying to disprove me point by posting two perennial losers in Harden and Westbrook? Me-first primadonnas. Hmmm yes actually they are exactly like Oubre and they’re all losers.

JJ Reddick is exactly correct on this

If you think MJ and Kobe were as focused on their fashion as Kelly is, I don’t know what to tell you.

When did you ever think that Kelly Oubre Jr. had the competitive will on the level of MJ and Kobe? You thought he'd somehow develop that?

Nothing to see here I hope:

And to make matters worse it’s from the LA Times.
Or maybe he wants to find a new home since he'll probably be pulling in $25M+ a year for the next 10 years.
That was my thought. No way a star making 25M/year wants to just have a 4M house.

On a personal note, I just bought a house back in AZ! Well, we have an accepted offer. Can't close until May.
I heard he bought a $10 mil house, so it makes sense that he's selling this one. Also, I heard that he owns a penthouse apartment in one of the high rises downtown. Sounds like he's doing just fine.
For those “Special moments”.

Jordan was also a compulsive gambler who’d often stay at casinos playing cards until the morning hours on game-days. It didn’t stop him from being great. Kelly’s fashion interests seem tame by comparison.

I don’t really care what these human beings do outside of basketball.

I am aware of what the word means. And a sample size of 50 recent shots is not a sample size you should trust, when there are 400 other shots that tell a different story.

I am very hopeful that the recent trend is going to stick, and with it he will be more willing to take open shots (and his teammates will be more willing to pass him the ball to take the open shot). But I am not going to pretend that his best 50 of his 450 3P shots is what he is yet.
Let's not assume the reverse either. Deal?
It isn't an assumption. His career is 33% from 3. It is great he is on a streak the last 50 shots or so. But just because Devin goes on a streak of hitting 50 FTs in a row doesn't make me say is a 100% FT shooter.
OK, you win. He’s horrible and always will be.

:lol: There is a gradation between being what he is and what he can be. You are always what you are, but that doesn't mean you can't get better (or worse).

Guys, as we know from the current CBA, all NBA players are NOT allowed to have any hobbies, interests, or other activities outside of basketball. The moment each game ends, they must begin an intensive 24-hour dribbling drill that continues while they sleep. Shame on you, Kelly Oubre! Shame!

The cool thing is how many more rings JJ Reddick has than all those other guys.

And don't forget that having a personality on the court is forbidden!

Article going over the KG rumors from 2007. Doesn't seem as close to happening as I remember.
