NBA Off Topic Thread

I just saw Primo’s attorney’s response. Yikes. Went straight for the racism angle. I just don’t see how that holds up when she works with a majority black client base. It’s also a terrible look that they had this whole “offense as the best form of defense” statement prepared because they know this was going to come to light. Dude’s lawyer sucks

The “trauma and challenges” line got me too. Dude just described the experience of a young black man growing up in North America. He has probably been through and seen some **** but show me an NBA player outside of a select few that haven’t. It’s not excuse for exposing yourself once let alone nine times

Honestly the intelligence of some of these dudes has to come into question sometimes. Given the time that this was happening I’m sure Deshawn Watson’s situation was already up to 22 names

A wardrobe malfunction my dude what was you wearing for this therapy session

I haven't really looked into it much until now so I thought it was like a massage therapy session and the towel "kept slipping." At least then its one of those where we know its a lie but could be hard to prove.

But if this is normal psychology therapy, bro what?

What’s y’all thoughts on this thread:

There's some truth to it but people will use it to advance their narrative that basketball is dying.

He's dead on regarding the clout chasing. Maybe ironic that one of the things that contributed to this was the Malice at The Palace if you think about it.

Fight Happens>>>League tries to improve image>>>Implements dress code>>>20 years later NBA superstars love the fashion industry>>>Lebron walks out on a press conference in his Fonzworth Bentley shorts and manpurse

(but I laughed at the reply from the soccer fan saying he doesn't get it because soccer is not like this. Bruh your entire country had a collective man crush on David Beckham. Soccer started the cult of personality in sports)

Damn they are saying Pop was aware of this ****. I'm kind of shocked by that. Reminds me of Joe Pap at Penn State. Not anywhere near the monster he was harboring. Similar events

There is do much to unpack there. I don't know if anyone has even been in one of these legal battles. But it's insane what each side can do to each other.

3 weeks into the season and damn near most, if not all of the attention has been on the off court mess.

From the Celtics/Ime mess to Tanking to Kyrie to the Spurs/Primo.

Re: NBA Off Topic Thread

I don't know, the fact that its the same lawyer from the Watson case and they felt the need to stage a press conference is alarming.

But also Primo comes out and to seemingly cover his bases makes one of the dumbest defenses I've heard. What kind of shorts is he wearing? I've never been in a situation where I go "Ah let me lay on my couch for a bit...oh damn it my penis flopped out again. Hate when that happens"

It’s a shame too because the on court product has been super fun so far (for some of us anyways lol)

There are so many sides to this thing. I don't know if you've ever been in a situation. But man, a lawyer either could save your life or trash it

Yeah that's the part that bothers me. Is there still a chance she could be making the **** up? Hell yeah. But the "shorts mistake". Yeah that's tough one.
