I'ma keep it a buck.

If some of y'all knew the true origins of the term you'd really be butthurt. Especially the KP unconditional lovers and Euros.

But as usual, cultural terms and vernacular get raped, pillaged and rebranded to become something more watered down and turned into marketing.

This is part of the reason why KP is receiving such vitriol. He came here, fronted like he wanted to be one wit the culture. Only to use the off court culture via social media and the on court spotlight of NYC to brand himself become marketable only to be on to the next once he capitalized off the landscape and the very people who built him up. NYC and the Knicks.

Thus, I'm not feeling that. Not feeling this thread. And as such, not feeling the cornball troll who made this his screen name.

Hope the mods lock this 'ish up. It's not even funny and/or trendy. Just all types of corn.
