My high school coach as a sophomore at St Joes broke these #s down to me and asked me if I thought I would be one of them… I was on the bench that whole season and he told me I prob wouldn’t be on the team the next year. I said yea and he smiled and chuckled right in my face … true story … you just never know 🤷🏽‍♂️

@3stripesmike Def gang culture. Just not “la gang politics” like stereotypical color banging and shit. Not prevalent down here but especially in the 2020s gang culture as a whole shifted in sfl

not being able to see women as anything other than potential sexual partners is a problem even if you’re also a woman btw

The entire premise of The Dark Knight was that using cellphones for mass surveillance technology was too evil and dangerous to be allowed to exist, Flock Cameras are tracking law abiding citizens 24/7 despite ZERO crimes being committed.

Deirdre Lovejoy, (ASA Rhonda Pearlman) heard from a district attorney she trailed during the show’s run that “every Sunday night in Baltimore, for three and a half years, the wiretaps would all go dead, and it is because all of the wiretapped people were watching The Wire.”

I remember asking assistant coach Mo Cheeks, what’s harder to do? Workout after practice or before?? I only asked cuz by time I would get to the gym, Russ was already done in the morning and I usually got mine in after practice. Mo like, “coming in before practice is probably harder”…since then, it’s been my routine….a lot of people looked at the emotions on the court and thought Russ was loud, nah to me, he was quiet and methodical. He lead by example and once the lights were bright, he let everything out and experienced pure freedom. It was inspiring as his teammate and everywhere I went, I seen it inspire people from all walks of life, crazy thing is, he didn’t say much, he just showed up. For 18 years. This basketball life is sacred to us as professionals, what we put into that court means everything. Some of us wish we could go back and do things with a little more intent and some can just wipe their hands and be satisfied with the time spent. Who u gonna be? We know what zero was on…keep inspiring in the next phase of life champ. I don’t care what happens, can’t erase what it was…The first YNs, finals run in our early 20s, all star games, seeing each other get injured and bounce back, the bus rides, plane rides, card games, jokes and arguments, the whole thing, memorable!! …to the whole Westbrook family, Nina, the kids, mama Westbrook, big Russ, Ray, Donnell, everybody from luezinger high and ucla and many more that I’m forgettin, much love and Congratulations on a iconic career.

@skeltoniums @chrisxmurph @YourManDevine Yeah I just said Vegas because that’s the assumption right now. I also would agree that I’d like Seattle to have another nba team that doesn’t have to be through expansion. Not fair to their fan base for them to be trash for the foreseeable future

[PERK FRANKLIN @icgburner]

@skeltoniums @chrisxmurph @YourManDevine Like of course the teams wouldn’t be good for the first few years. Maybe more. There’s a lot of talent these days. And they’d have to renegotiate the number of untouchable players. Free agency as well. You’re 100% right i don’t think a expansion team is very competitive first szn

[PERK FRANKLIN @icgburner]

@skeltoniums @chrisxmurph @YourManDevine Too much to type but I feel you. I still hoop now so Im just vouching for a certain group of athletes I can relate to in a sense but Either way I’m saying that overtime the expansion wouldn’t be a negative. Especially if it’s Seattle and Vegas.

[PERK FRANKLIN @icgburner]

@skeltoniums @chrisxmurph @YourManDevine Not talking abt guys who literally do not play lol. Rotation guys. Guys with upside. Fringe talent. the memesaken Antetokounmpo brother isn’t the realm of hooper I was talking abt originally. But either way with a draft it’ll be fine. And I’m sure it’s inevitable fr

[PERK FRANKLIN @icgburner]

@skeltoniums @chrisxmurph @YourManDevine Naw not true. End of bench guys are mfs too. That are legit. I agree that it’s not the product the average basketball fan would want to see. I hoop so I like watching good hoops. There’d be an expansion draft and my OG point was that the teams would end up balanced out

[PERK FRANKLIN @icgburner]

@skeltoniums @chrisxmurph @YourManDevine Well good point but the expansion would also create opportunities for fringe star players as well and stars winding up on those teams essentially has to happen so.
