Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
"McCollum was greatly undersized as a freshman at GlenOak High School in Canton, Ohio in 2005, standing just 5'2" tall.[1] He was the beneficiary of a late growth spurt, however, gaining 5 inches in height by the beginning of his second season and another 4 inches by the start of his junior year — enough size to put him on the radar for college recruitment"


Brehs.....what the fukk lol. And then grew to 6'3. These athletes be lucky as hell. Him and Brow got the weirdest spurts I ever heard of.

Suns owner says 'millennial culture' explains his team's awful season

What a fukking cop out. :stopitslime:



Steph Curry, Draymond Green, and Klay Thompson are fukking millennials.
"I'm not sure it's just the NBA," Sarver said. "My whole view of the millennial culture is that they have a tough time dealing with setbacks, and Markieff Morris is the perfect example. He had a setback with his brother in the offseason and he can't seem to recover from it.

"I'm not sure if it's the technology or the instant gratification of being online. But the other thing is, I'm not a fan of social media. I tell my kids it's like Fantasyland. The only thing people put online are good things that happen to them, or things they make up. And it creates unrealistic expectations. We've had a number of setbacks this year that have taken their toll on us, and we haven't been resilient. Therefore, it's up to our entire organization to step up their game."
There's some truth to what he's saying, except he provided a horrible example. Markieff isn't the way he is because of the period he grew up in.

lets not act like paul george is slouching or not putting in work. he looked awful when he returned last year, worked hard as fukk in the summer to get his game back, and came out great this year. dude is working a lot on his game as well, i just don't think he'll ever be a next level type superstar. more like melo, except with better defense with slightly worse scoring.

Paul George is great and immensely talented. He has all the tools to be great and I think he's a more natural scorer than Butler. I think he's still better than Butler (Offensively) but Butler's motor (On and off the court) is gonna make him steadily improve.

Week to week, Jimmy adds new dimensions to his game and he tries them out against all defenders.

When he gets mismatches in the post, you'll see him try something different a couple of times and then, two weeks later, that one dribble, drop step baby hook off the glass is going in against bigger and better defenders and then he's doing it when he catches the ball in the post or when he isolates in the post.

Dude has that hunger to get better. He's the kinda guy who could put up Wilt scoring numbers and still not be satisfied because "He has to get his rebounding and assist numbers up to snuff". He's never satisfied and he improves like a MyPlayer.
