Book has that nasty attitude like Mike & Kobe.Even the numbers add up.
Kobe: DOB 8-23-1978
8+23+19+78=128
128 reduced to a single digit is 2 (1+2+8=11....1+1=2)
Michael Jordan: DOB 2-17-1963
2+17+19+63=101
101 reduced to a single digit is 2(1+1=2)
Devin Booker:DOB 10-30-1996
10+30+19+96=155
155 reduced to a single digit is 2(1+5+5= 11....1+1=2)
I'm telling y'all, 2 is the mark of the beast when it comes to athletes.Especially NBA SG's.
Kevin Durant's also a 2....He's basically a 7 ft SG
Book got the mark
I always say, when it comes to sports, especially basketball----Be on the lookout for Birth Path Number 2's
Just added up the BP number for the projected top 5 picks this year.
Only one BP #2 in the bunch
Josh Jackson.....If he ends up on the Suns, the Suns will have two # 2's...22's

I been wanting Jackson all along...unfortunately everyone in the local media seems to be convinced the Suns are dead set on Lonzo and basically have him #1 on the big board

I'm on the Josh Jackson bandwagon now.Wanted Fultz, but I'd be shocked if the NBA awarded the Suns with the #1 overall pick.
Have a feeling they'll be picking 3-5.Hopefully no lower than #3.
I think the first 3 picks will go Fultz, Ball, Jackson.
If we get Jackson, he'll just add to the nucleus.
And although I don't really care for Bledsoe as a pg/ball distributor, he's another bullet in the gun.
If we draft Ball or Fultz, Bled's outta there.He'll demand a trade.Him and his agent already put it out there.
That's hustling sidewayz.I'd like to come back stocked with Booker, Bleds, Chriss, and Jackson next season.
But if they did get a top 2 pick and chose Ball/Fultz, I'd be ok with trading Bledsoe.
volume scoring pg's are a dime a dozen nowadays
it brings me so much joy to know Tyler Ulis is balling in the NBA, so many people doubted him for his size but he plays EXACTLY the same way he did in college as he does in the NBA. dude is so poised, almost NEVER makes a mistake and he's so young still. Love that kid.
Make 6 million dollars a year but have your sister die in a 1998 Toyota Camry, brehs.
Something tells me Isaiah wasn't close to his sister like that (his pics were never on her instagram).
But those tears and all that emotional stuff on national television... something doesn't add up.

You know what i cant front that is one of the thoughts i had after i read the story, i was like is he close with her that she driving a old whip like that? In the grand scheme of things its nothing and probably wouldnt have helped. Unless she had one of those lane assist whips, all signs point to she fell asleep according to news reports.
Maybe he wasn't that close with her, but that still doesn't mean he didn't love her. Someone's death can also make you feel guilty that you weren't there for them as well.
I thought the same thing however, it doesn't matter what car she was driving unless it was one of those autopilot Teslas. A friend of mine passed away in the same situation. No seatbelt, fell asleep/dozed off and hit a median.

They were half siblings so I don't know if they grew up in the same house or how often they saw each other. Whether they talked every day or not often at all,it's still a close family member passing away

Obvious what it was. A ritual blood sacrifice more than likely. And I like IT.
I used to be into research like this. Happens to all big athletes before some huge success. I don't like to dwell on it I just enjoy the game

Based on that view KD must have paid a guap for that crib
Some people are more grounded than all that... I know we're such a materialistic fukking society that we expect being showered with gifts to be a good thing. But honest, you're better off driving your own car you bought with your own efforts than some fly whip that your sibling felt obligated to give you cause he's making bank now.
It's better for the athlete too...you start passing out gifts, you have no idea who gives a shyt about you anymore, and who just plays nice and sweet because they don't wanna get cut out.
I'd never be rich like that, but if I were, it would be a hard line to walk. Probably do some bomb family vacations together, pay for doctors or lawyers if anyone got into that kind of trouble, but passing out possessions is just asking for trouble.

What are the chances the Grizzlies blow it up? If the Clippers blow it up as well, there's gonna be a great trade market for centers this summer(Deandre Jordan, Marc Gasol, Brook Lopez).
With that in mind, what center should Ainge pursue? Sure Jordan and Gasol are good defensively but they're either old(Gasol) or an offensively liability, while Brook provides he best offense but with mediocre defense/rebounding.

This whole post makes me uncomfortable. Would you have preferred if she died in a Porsche? What if she didn't care about getting a new car and wanted to have her own shyt? What if she wasn't an attention whore and didn't want her brother all up on her gram like that? And even if none of this is the case, that's still his sister regardless of how tight they were or weren't.
You're reaching too deep with this one. A man lost his sister and that's the only blanks that need to be filled in.
