He definitely jumped off of the dude, probably should've been a charge. But still, holy ****.

Re: NBA Off Topic

The Mavs have the best everything, listening to you. J/k lol

That Kevin Love Saxophone video is still #1 to me(so far)but this is #2...

Nah, this is still #1, with Love after that and then the Marion vid. If we're talking players stuff only then yeah, what you said. Biases aside, Bulls got the best vids with Benny though.

Royce White confirmed today that he will not report to the D-League as it "goes against Doctor recommendations" on Sirius XM's Off the Bounce.

Re: NBA Off Topic

I'm not saying that Marion video is the best video produced by an NBA team, I'm just saying the Mavs consistently put out great stuff, if you've ever been to a Mavs game at the AAC you know they've always got great stuff.

Barkley being Barkley:

I actually think he's completely right, tbh. I'd much rather have NBA players and coaches vote or have the head coach of each conference just straight up pick the players he feels are most deserving.

Agree but at the same time I understand, the ASG probably makes a lot of money for the League and the city it's hosted in, and 80% of NBA fans are casual fans who want to see dunks, high scoring, and crossovers instead of rebounding, post moves, and great passing.

Just something we have to live with, unfortunately.

Do you guys think the ASG should mean something like in baseball?

Re: NBA Off Topic

Highlights from Royce White's interview:

• "The protocol actually calls for medical professionals to have executive authority in medical situations regarding mental health. And that is something that’s been declined. So basically I’m fighting to have that rectified. I just don’t think it is OK or responsible or even logical to have GMs or any front office personnel have executive authority in medical situations."
• "This is about -- in general -- who has executive authority in medical incidents or on everyday operations because the reality here is that it’s just not logical for somebody like Daryl Morey, for example, who is my GM, to say yea or nay on anything regarding medical situations. And that’s kind of where the rule stands now, is that a GM has the right to decline the medical recommendations of even their own doctors. And that’s just not safe to me."
• "That routine recovery was OK’d by their doctors and in the 12th hour kind of made a D-League recommendation. And I said, ‘Hey, listen, I’m going to go with what the doctors are saying and if you guys want to fine me or suspend me because I’m not going to the D-League you can do that, but I’m going to stick with what the doctors have said.'"
• "The reality is that it is not Houston’s fault. As much as we always want to try and blame one side or the other and try and find the black and white in it, it’s not black and white. It’s gray. And they’ve been thrown into a position now where they’re forced to make things up as they go because a protocol has not been put in place for mental health up until this point. And that’s tough for anybody to do. If there were no safety or health codes on how to construct a building, the people who are going to try to build a building tomorrow are going to be in trouble. That’s just the reality here so I don’t really think going to another team is something that would be better. And it’s not something that I want to do. I want to play for Houston. I love the city of Houston. Since I’ve been here the fans have been nothing but supportive -- that I’ve met in person. Twitter has been different. The fans that I’ve met in person have been supportive. The community here is great. I have a lot of friends that work in the organization, in the building, that aren’t even related to practice or the game, so to speak. So I have no intention or desire to play for another team."

Re: NBA Off Topic

Why don't they just give this dude some anxiety medication or sleeping pills and put him on the back of the plane?

Or give him some bath salts and throw him under the plane with the luggage? Heck, making your own luggage castle while drugged 30,000 feet in the air doesn't just happen to anybody - he needs to open his mind lol.

And to think, just from some highlights, he has/had the potential of becoming a 'poor man's Lebron' IMO

Lol! While he's milking this, pills/medication aren't the answer.

@ a "Poor Mans Lebron".

Dude does not want to do all those things you mention Jersey.

He's just making a whole bunch of excuses.

Re: NBA Off Topic

How do you deal with Anxiety Disorder, especially if you're a professional athlete?

Have their been any other Pro Athletes who dealt with it as well before him?
