Pop is great. The way he plays with reporters and now finding out he's the same way with coaches and execs, dude is hilarious. That's what real swag is, carrying yourself with utmost confidence while still being genuine around people. Too many people these days think it's about dressing like an attention whore and always having a cool guy look on your face.

I can just picture Pop effing with him..."I'll bet you I keep Green for 12 or less, lol, you know if you want Joseph you gotta start at 7 per, he'll probably stay here for 4 otherwise, lol"

Because all he does is watch basketball. You don't get to produce hits and make millions by watching basketball in different arenas, buddy.

Huh? Where does he imply that that's all drake does?

:banghead: He doesn't imply that but he said if he had as much money as Drake that's what he would do.

Simply just saying that relaxing is not what every rich person does.

Yeah and so? I don't get the "You don't get to produce hits and make millions by watching basketball in different arenas, buddy." You made it sound as if that's what he was getting at.

You don't call someone a 'traitor' just because he can't attend a home game. He's got **** to do and doesn't live in Toronto.

Actually Drake is important to the team, I might not care about his music but he does rep us well. A lot of players listen to his music so it's a win win for us.
