The Cavs drafted Jamal Crawford with the 8th pick in the 2000 NBA Draft then traded him to the Bulls for Chris Mihm & cash
@JCrossover finished his career with 7,447 more points than any other player from his draft
@sophaller "That's the stupidest thing I've ever done. I think it's dumb. But it was pissing her off and I couldn't help myself. She was losing her s**t." 😭
We tend to treat “the media” as one voice when it’s really hundreds of individuals. The same ecosystem that rewarded Jaylen Brown’s basketball excellence can also frame his independent thinking as difficult or unconventional. Both realities can exist.
We're deep into the "attention economy" now and this is what it does to people. Anything for a clip and views.
To me, Chris Paul is an all-time winner. Two gold medals with Team USA (I was there in Beijing in '08 for one of them). A career regular season record of 855 and 515. First-ballot Hall of Famer when it's his time. One of the fiercest competitors I ever shared a floor with, and it's not close.
No, he never got the ring. I didn't get one either, and trust me, I can take a joke about it. But there's a difference between joking about a guy and trying to spit on his name for views. That second one isn't funny, it's just sad.
Respect @CP3. Always.
