    I don’t understand how this is notable…. We already know he passed Kareem for most points in the NBA, so from here on out he’s the first guy to do it.

    39,001 points? It’s LeBron!

    39,002? Still LeBron!

    40k? Probably gonna be LeBron!

    It was simply a notable number coincidence. 39K 39 days before turning 39. Pretty cool.

    Did someone already post about the Josh Giddy scandal? Apparently he's being accused of hanging out (and maybe more) with an underage girl.

    There are pictures. But it’s not against the law to hang out with a 16/17 year old girl, is it?

    Kind of depends on age and exactly what’s hanging out right?

    It's not the hanging out bit that's the issue. It's the potential "screwing" bit that is the issue. Plus, it doesn't bode well for him to be that gullible.

    Plus, when I was 21 I wouldn't want to hang out with high school kids.

    Esp if I was a millionaire.

    I saw him play for Valladolid before the injuries, and I can assure you he was better.

    Where did you watch him play? That would have been an amazing experience.

    I was living in Spain at the time. It was a joke, he was si much better than everyone else around him. If only he could have come to us earlier...

    Well - as you know they drafted him several years earlier but unfortunately it was not to be. I would have loved to see him play when he was young.

    So much anger towards things there should be.

    Same thing is happening to wander Franco. And he was supposed to be the next HUGE star in the MLB.
