@DraftDeeper Isiah Thomas and Joe Dumars but they were a bit older in an era where most top talents played 2-4 years of college ball before getting to the NBA. Thomas was 23 turning 24 and Dumars was 22 when they started playing together. They were a physical, gritty backcourt.

It's fine to care. He isn't the first player who has cried after winning or losing. It also doesn't mean they don't care if they don't cry or have this type of reaction. Main point, think there is too much scrutinizing/interpreting of emotions. They're people, not machines.

Drake dropped K-OS a BAG and is acting as an executive producer on his next album

“Sometimes it takes your younger brother or someone who was witnessing you more in that stage of, ‘Oh my God, you’re amazing,’ for them to point out things you were doing that you forgot about.” - K-OS
