    It's much safer but the players won't like it.

    Durant is supporting him. He must know more about the issue. Maybe we should hold judgement at this point?

    It is always interesting to me that people who have "issues"........it seems like it isn't until they are filthy rich til it comes out. Go back and watch and read articles from Kanye back when he was a struggling producer in a Chicago basement grinding.....dude was "normal" and level headed. Just another guy. Then once he has more money and fame than he knows what to do with, THEN he has issues. Once he can fly around to any beach in the world and buy any plane and car he wants, THEN he becomes a nut job. Save it.

    I think it's called being eccentric... Has that label ever been applied to a poor person?!

    Did you see the brief Jamie Foxx interview about playing Mike Tyson in an upcoming movie? Said with a perfect Iron Mike impression:

    MT: I'm the happiest I've ever been.

    JF: Why is that?

    MT: Because I'm poor now.

    JF: Why does that make you happy?

    MT: Because they can't take anything away from me.

    I was honestly a bit taken aback by it. I was a huge Mike Tyson fan back in the day, but I never expected something so raw or vulnerable from him. Makes me want to see the movie, as Foxx said that's the direction he wanted to explore with it.

    seems like the NBA is going to have to do at least one of three things:

    * abandon the 72 game schedule and accept schedule anomalies that can disadvantage some teams

    * extend the completion date of the regular season

    * jump the line for vaccinations

    they will almost certainly not jump the line, so it seems something has to give in what was really a too ambitious schedule

    Almost makes you feel for Donald J. Trump. Born into money, the poor guy never had a chance...

    But according to some on here, they are this great team right? Or maybe they were quick to judge and should have waited 20 games.....
