His personality also seems so forced and desperate. Finally, he's infamous for his farts.
Wha?

Thanks. I think...
When he came into the league, he was infamous for being a Jesus freak. Now, that is mostly forgotten and he is infamous for his farts.
It's also a little disingenuous when you're a bible thumper but have 5 kids with 5 different women.

If it’s a choice between being infamous for being a Jesus freak, being infamous for not being able to keep it in your pants, or being infamous for farting, he should have stuck with Jesus freak. Alas, he wasn’t meant for it.

To be fair to the guy, he went from spending four years at Southwest Atlanta Christian Academy to a millionaire #1 NBA pick. I'm willing to cut him some slack with the religion stuff because he's not out here Tebowing. It's natural for young people to change.

If the lakers sign Lebron and PG13 this summer will they have the money to sign Kawhi as a FA next season?

I hate the lakers so much...

At $23 million, not much. At the minimum or an exception, probably quite a bit.

Dwight will be 33 next season, so I bet he doesn't get a multi-year deal.

Yeah, no way. There's the infamous clip where Harden hits a big shot prolonging the playoffs and Howard is upset about it on the bench.

Why not a second go around with the Lakers? No Kobe, new regime, a Lebron-PG13-Dwight front court ain’t a too bad.

Funny thing is he was working out in my gym later in his career and you could see he was headed in this direction. I thought he cut his career short by gaining bulk, even though it was muscle. He should have slimmed down like Nash and prolonged his career. He was slowing himself down when he was in NY.
