People want 1 person to blame but the truth is that there are 3 levels of failure here:
- Mitch should have called a timeout immediately
- Wemby should’ve carried it himself
- Pitch ahead is Spurs transition identity, Castle not being prepared for it is bad
This deep, aggressive slide into anti-intellectualism is so infuriating because we’re not even combatting opposing views with merit anymore, it’s just fully grown adults being defiantly incurious morons.
Jared "sell high" McCain is an 82% shooter for the series. No, not from the free throw line. Not the field either. From 3. 82% from 3.
The 76ers gave him away for the 22nd pick this year and 3 seconds.
🚨BREAKING: ICE agents just kidnapped 2 high school students as they waited for their school bus.
Max is 15. Israel is 18. They were standing outside their home in Mississippi, waiting for the bus like any normal morning, when unmarked cars pulled up, surrounded them, and agents zip-tied them in front of their family and classmates.
These kids were in the U.S. on student visas. Their host family had legal guardianship paperwork signed by a judge…
and ICE agents shrugged and said it “meant nothing.”
That’s where we are… paperwork signed by a judge means nothing, and a bureaucratic technicality is enough to justify armed agents grabbing unaccompanied TEENAGERS off the street.
Because that’s what this comes down to. A school transfer. Somewhere in that process, their visa status changed without them knowing, without their guardians being notified, and without any chance to fix it.
In any system that respects due process, you get a notice, you get time to respond, you get a chance to correct the issue.
This administration skipped all of that and went straight to detention.
And then they separated them.
A 15-year-old child taken away from his legal guardians, moved out of state, and for days, his family didn’t even know where he was.
So, let’s be honest about what this administration is doing…
They are creating a system where your legal status can disappear without warning, where you can be detained before you even know there’s a problem, and where families can be separated instantly with no transparency, and no accountability.
That is a direct erosion of due process, and it should alarm anyone who understands what constitutional protections are supposed to mean.
Two kids went outside to wait for the bus… and this administration decided to kidnap them.
“Young people, you need to bet on yourself.
If you think you're that good, you don't need a handout. You just allow your work to speak for itself."
Do not ask to be chosen.
Work until you cannot be ignored.
This isn’t meant to come off as a knock to CE.
I’m a Christian - and a basketball player. 90% of the NBA is openly Christian. What I find maddening in all this is Christians online twisting the story into “Ivey got waived because he is a Christian.” That’s just a false statement and you’re pushing drama even further.
There are guys that proclaim their faith all over the NBA - it’s a shared faith. There are pre-game Chapel services in EVERY arena where guys come together to worship. There are post-game prayer communities that are visible to fans and cameras.
This isn’t an intolerance issue by the NBA. Far from it. The league wants guys to proclaim what they believe.
With that; You will be fired in ANY job where you become a workplace nightmare. If you continually disrupt the peace and happiness of your colleagues, you will be held accountable. It’s as simple as that.
Social media started going downhill when brands, official accounts, etc started trying to join in on the fun with regular people instead of posting in an official and professional way
Overprotected kids become unprepared adults.
Dawn Staley nailed it.🔥
You can’t shelter your child from every hard moment and then expect them to handle adversity when it counts.
Hard is the lesson.
