@Dr. Truth @largebillsonlyplease :scared:




Just a disclaimer @2:36 these dudes are feeling themselves when they get that HOF tag.

Rob is right about the BHOF



This is the downside of making excuses for Gen X all these years. Now we got dudes who never won shit or won A ring being celebrated strictly for being born in the 70's. Dudes will clown LeBron and bring up his Finals record, then turn around and dicksuck Allen Iverson just because of the era he is from and the fact they played with lower expectations. He got gentleman swept in the Finals and became a legend off that, and never did shit else. :lol: Thats why a T-Mac or a Chauncey Billups or Rasheed Wallace feel like they can talk down to people who came after them that did it waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay bigger, made waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more money, and are higher profile.

I guess my question is where do you stop? This series should go 7 if it’s all about the dollar…
That’s up to the NBA to decide this is entertainment. And people are being entertained including myself. Anytime you have money involved theirs going to be problems.

Man, is there anyone who can't see that the NBA, well at least this series is fixed? The NBA wanted the Celtics to lose to prolong that money. Watch, the Celtics wake up and blow the Mavericks out the next game, or worse the Celtics left the Mavericks win another one and then winning game 6

It sucks how they're fixing sports now That gambling has gotten more and more into it

Question. Why when a ex player who played the game says something and is dismissed because of his team accomplishments? Tracy not qualified because his teams didn’t do nothing?

Yes

And it's only because if someone said something about his placement and his lack of leading achievements I highly doubt he'd go " yea that's fair"

One of 3 pgs in the last 40 years to be the leader of a championship team
And 1 of 2 in the last 40 years to be the leader of what could be argued or considered a dynasty

But gotta show Tracy mcgrady something

And it applies to everyone that ain't in the big dog lead

Like when niggas would rush to say idk man wall and beal just as good if not better than Klay and Steph

Or

Idk man
Steph gotta get his spot back dame be cooking

They not in the rooms these conversations are happening in enough is enough

He has his opinion cool
It's his I respect it and disagree with it

The NBA gets more revenue if there's more games. Boston is going to win, so they got to Boston and said, ease up a little. Take a game off.

Boston's still going to win, but the NBA is going to get the more games it desires. That's fixing

Before the series started there were That's out there that said Boston in five or Boston in 6. Those betters, more plentiful than those who bet Boston sweep are now going to profit. That's fixing

I saw a post last week I think saying how Tatum was looking into the crowd and his father was giving him advice the whole game but I don't think I've ever seen them together, with the Celtics being in the Finals, it being Father's Day weekend and them supposedly having had a strained relationship I'd think the media would make this a story

Jayson Tatum is closer with his father than has been portrayed. His dad played overseas and played a part in his development. Unfortunately, fatherless Black American athletes are sometimes more marketable to fans, they don't like the image of the Black American father with a strong presence (see LeBron James and his son), so some guys literally pretend they grew up in single parent households to appear "safer".

I guess you're right, I remember this video were Jayson talks like it was just him and his mom and never once mentioned his dad


Then in this video he tells about his dad being in his life during his childhood

There is no strained relationship. He was never a father to him. they never lived together.
He was only a coach to him later in life once he got into basketball.

They now interact on certain occasions; like the playoffs. The father has his own family.

Tatum will fly his father other family out to games so they can be around. but there is no love between Tatum's mother and father(that is why you do not see all that family family shit).


Two things you will not see much of 1) Tatum's father and 2) Tatum's son's mother.

This is tatums half Brother and half sister from his father current family...

Oh ok, there was a whole thread a couple years ago with that first video I posted of him talking about him and his mom and some were saying his dad was in his life. When I saw the post last week about him communicating with his father in the crowd and then the one posted today I just thought they had gotten together and fixed their relationship

Oh I got you.

yes recently they have been closer as Tatum flies him out to Boston to be around. But the father does not stay in Boston.

I think Tatum want his father to be more of a grandfather to his son than he was a father to him.

Tatums mother struggled her entire life. she was an only mother and it was hard to put food on the table since tatums father was away doing his basketball overseas as a single yound man..


Tatums mother had to go to school at night to get a better education to provide for Tatum( she now has 4 degrees and is a lawyer)

Tatums only family is his mother and his mother is the default mother of both Tatum and duece( on a day to day in Boston).

That is why you always see lil deuce with tatum. he wants to always be a father to his kid( something he never had)

So every second tatum is not playing basketball he is with lil duece. BGOl can clown tatum all day because lil duece is always at the games, has his own locker like like the other teammates but people without fathers try not to repeat the cycle.......


here is the reason why he loves his son so much...Happy fathers day everyone
