Let Jalen Brunson walk and traded away Luka Doncic lmfaooo dat organization dumb as shit

[PlayboySwervo @playboyswervo]

Mavs might have the dumbest front office in NBA history lmfao

[Legion Hoops @LegionHoops]

REPORT: Jalen Brunson and his camp “laughed” off the Mavs’ 4-year, $55M extension offer in 2022, per @TheSteinLine

“The Brunson camp basically laughed at them and said, 'Uh, we'll take our chances in free agency now, you guys had your chance.'... The Mavs still had the option at that point of picking up the phone and saying, 'Jalen, we completely screwed this up, we are deeply sorry, we've disrespected you, we want to make this right, we're going to offer you 150 over five.'”

Also this came out in 2002, during the height of openly racist commentary about the players due to the crossover of the NBA with hip hop and street culture.

[1804extremist @MRoyer3]

This cover is insane. First, the racially charged imagery, but even more obnoxious is the choice to highlight a quote from Barkley slamming Black kids with a generalization about them supposedly not aspiring to be more than athletes. The editor who green lit this had enormous anti Black animus and he used Barkley to channel it.

One of the coolest choices in CASINO (1995) is Scorsese killing Joe Pesci’s character in the middle of his own narration. Nicky is talking like he’ll be around forever, then the movie abruptly cuts him off.

Im noticing that she hasnt improved statistically. Whether that stagnation is related to her or the way she is being coached, I dont know. I can see a trade next year if the situation remains this way.

[Van Lathan Jr @VanLathan]

No agendas. No jokes. Seriously asking. What’s wrong with her.

[1804extremist @MRoyer3]

💀💀💀💀

[T…Silk @TundeSilk]

@VanLathan I thought deeply about this one. All signs point to rap music.

[1804extremist @MRoyer3]

Interesting how MAGA totally ignores Kelsey Plum and Paige Bueckers. They act like CC is the only white woman in the WNBA with a shot and passing ability.

The attacks in Smalls is a perfect example of "know your place" aggression against Black ppl who free themselves from neo-liberalism. Conservatives will call us the n word explicitly but liberals will write op-eds that use euphemisms instead.

Tomorrow those Knick fans will be giving Trump the business. Feelings gonna be so hurt he'll threaten to pull NYC federal funding. 😂
