Ok listen to me VERY carefully
1. You visit her one last time "to pick up your stuff"
2. You apologize to her parents that it didn't work out
3. You tell each parent what you learned from them and that you'll carry it with you for the rest of your life
4. They get a bittersweet feeling and will miss you
5. You make sure to remember their birthdays and send them a message on other holidays to make them never forget you
6. You are now the ex they'll compare every future boyfriend to
7. The expectations and the pressure will slow cook her subconsciously. She'll only bring bad options home.
8. They'll nag at her. "Leon was a good guy and you let him go" they'll say, sabotaging her future relationships further and slowly making her resent her parents
9. Her parents will start texting you, saying you were the best she ever brought home and that they'll miss you.
10. You say you're sorry, you really tried your best...but it takes two to make a relationship work
11. They start pressuring her to try again. She will decline at first.
12. After 10 more failed relationships and increased pressure from her parents, she gives in. She agrees to meet you once more.
13. You meet with her as a friend. You enjoy your meeting. You remind her of the good times you've had together. She starts to think "Maybe it just wasn't the right time"
14. She opens up to you, gives you another chance. You meet her a few times. Nothing happens. You are friendly but you keep your distance.
15. She finally falls in love with you. That's when you tell her you only view her as a friend and you can't stand her weird hairline. You leave and never look back
FIN
I'm really sorry to all our fans. I own taking this risk. Surprised it came up 5th after this year. I thought we were due some luck. But please remember - this team deserved a starting center to compete with the best teams next year. We have always been resilient.
A wild ending in the Clippers-Pacers game:
Kawhi Leonard hits the jumper over 2 Pacers, with 0.4 seconds remaining, giving the Clippers the lead, Andrew Nembhard banks in the long inbound pass - turnover.
Bennedict Mathurin misses both clutch free throws, the Pacers call a timeout, Jay Huff gets fouled on the inbound by Brook Lopez, but he misses both chances to tie the game, and in fact, missed a chance to win the game
So Kawhi Leonard with the game winner in A WILD ENDING in Indiana
Bennedict Mathurin on Indiana Pacers fans ahead of his return to Gainbridge:
“Indiana breathes basketball. Everybody knows that… The fans love me and I love the fans over there. They mean everything to me. Well, meant. I’m sorry. A little bit still do. It’s gonna be a lot of love. At the end of the day, Indiana drafted me. Still my second home to this day.”
