@randolphkwatson@hovah76 I get the statement but its not it. Raven was a lottery pick and Brady was a 6th round pick who became the GOAT. I like Raven but she wont be close to Brady status in any way other than a possible CC injury and they somehow win a ring which I highly doubt
You may not know about this story, but former NFL QB Teddy Bridgewater went back to his high school to be head coach and was suspended a year for using his own money to pay for his underprivileged players' Uber rides, meals, and athletic recovery services. DeSantis signed a law allowing coaches to use $15k of their own money for underprivileged kids.
Olivia Miles is in ELITE company to start her rookie season 🔥
The No. 2 overall pick is the fifth player in WNBA history to average 15 PPG and 5 APG through 6 career games💪
Steph - “I’ve never seen two guys play at that level for 3 straight games in my life”
LeBron & Kyrie combining for 82 PTS pts was legendary stuff. 🐐🐐
A young girl set up a gofundme for $6,000 to stay in school at Howard University.
She was at risk of being kicked out because of unpaid tuition, then, NBA star Kyrie Irving stepped in, paying $22,000 upfront to cover her education for the next 4 years.
May God bless him 🙏
The Timberwolves won the clincher against Denver without Ayo Dosunmu (21.8 PPG this series), Anthony Edwards (18.5) and Donte DiVincenzo (10.8).
They are the first team in NBA history to win a playoff game while missing 3 or more players who averaged 10+ PPG in that series 🔥
Every training camp I had at Washington State University, Coach Leach would share the same story.
The story of two kids. The rich kid and the poor kid.
The rich kid has two choices. He can become spoiled, entitled, lazy, and expect everything to be handed to him because he has been given more. Or he can take every advantage of what he has been given—resources, coaching, opportunities—and use it to become even better.
The poor kid has two choices too. He can say, “I never had a chance. Nobody gave me anything. The world is against me.” He can feel sorry for himself and use it as an excuse. Or he can say, “I may not have what they have, but I am going to outwork everybody.” He can become tougher, more driven, and more relentless than everybody else.
It was a powerful message in a locker room full of people from different backgrounds, different families, and different life experiences. Some guys came from wealth. Some came from almost nothing. Some had every opportunity. Others had to fight for every inch.
But despite all of those differences, everybody still had the same choice.
You can take ownership and use what you have as fuel.
Or you can become victim-minded. You can look for excuses, blame your circumstances, become entitled, and convince yourself that because of what you have—or because of what you do not have—you cannot become what you want to be.
It is not about how you start. It is about what you choose to do with how you start.
The rich kid can waste what he has been given or use it to build something greater. The poor kid can use his circumstances as an excuse or as fuel.
In the end, greatness does not come from starting with more or less. It comes from which person inside of you that you choose to feed.

"Bad habits have a cost.
Good habits have a price.
Either way you have to pay.
The meaningful things- we pay for before.
The foolish things- we pay for after."
Winners pay upfront (sacrifice, effort, discipline).
Everyone else pays later (regret).
That’s the difference.
The Golden State Warriors dynasty has come to an end — and Steve Kerr never developed any superstar talent since he was gifted with the team, 14 years ago, that was developed by Mark Jackson….
Now during this time, Kerr has won coach of the year, 4 NBA championships, and was the highest paid NBA head coach in the league… But, who exactly are the players that he developed since Mark Jackson was fired and blackballed from the league???
