Clicked through a couple links and saw that PJ and his girl have been the "talk of the NBA Offseason"

Guess I missed that

They've also apparently been... *checks notes*... "subbing" each other and she was out to "finesse" him from the start, and PJ is dumb because this *checks notes again* Brittany Renner chick is famous for tricking dudes?

Melo is also being "groomed" by a 32yo despite her seemingly having her own money from showing her ass and tiddies on social media

I think that's most of it. I must be old because I have missed and/or don't understand just about any of this "drama".


Social media is **** toxic though. I do know that

Ever since the fallout between PJ Washington and Brittany Renner, many NBA fans are hypersensitive about young basketball players and the women they associate with.

Why is this article suggesting this a new revelation and something that has only been a thing since Brittany Renner and PJ?

It's not like we didn't already know that once a woman has your child you are obligated to her for eighteen years.
We all know somebody who is paying child support for one of his children and the mother of the child has a car and house that is bigger than the fathers.
You see some of these professional athletes playing in the NFL who win the Super Bowl and drive off in a Hyundai!!
The mother is obligated to support the child with the child support money but instead goes and spends the money on plastic surgery for herself.
She walks around giving off the appearance she in incredibly wealthy.
The father should be using that money on things like car insurance for himself.
If you are being fiscally responsible you should be thinking about introducing and insisting on a prenuptial agreement.
It's the surest way to protect your assets against someone who only has financial gain as their primary motivator.
Because if the relationship falls apart she will take half of your net wealth with her.
Eighteen years is a long time to have that financial obligation to someone.
And then to discover of the 18th birthday of the child that you are not actually the father?

What the heck is wrong with these players...? Melo girl older than Miss Daisy. And not Miss Daisy from the beginning of the movie. I'm talking about towards the end when hoke fed her. I feel sorry for rich guys because their picking is actually worse than poor guys. If an attractive woman is interested in them chances are it's for what they can provide. At least when you are poor if an attractive woman is interested in you it's legit lol.

Someone in the organization needs to refer our guys to a doctor that performs vasectomies. It's too late for PJ, but LaMelo can be saved.

Interesting this type of convo has been discussed. I just heard Sonya Curry just filed for Divorce with Dell after 33 years of Marriage. Dell being an ex Hornet and broadcaster and Melo and PJ. WTF

I am sickened by these guys…having no sense, despite the warnings, despite the admonitions from those who know. LaMelo appears to be having lots of “fun” despite his own dad’s warnings. None of these guys think s**t stinks.

Frankly I could care less how much $$$ they will have to put out for dipping the wick. Stupid decision making. Were they worth it? Hardly. The worse part is when the babies come and there’s no family structure, no parenting. Just a predator hoemama and a roaming baller that has no time to be dad…if they ever even know them. Sad.

As a fan I fear their living stupid will become playing stupid…as PJ demonstrated last year.
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.
