Is there a publicly traded company that operates strip clubs in the NY metro area? I'm looking to make an investment.

Kindo of. RCI Hospitality Holdings owns a ton of strip clubs, including in NY.

I'm not sure if anyone posted this yet, but damn, it's not going to get easier for him.

I'm not a doctor nor do I play one on TV, but is it possible that the ankle injury (and how he had to move because of it for months afterwards) could have put his body "out of alingment", leaving him nor susceptible to injuries? :crazy:

Simmons took a 3! Simmons took a 3! (brick, but whatever)

I guess he has improved since entering the league

If Oladipo doesn't want to be in Houston why didn't they just take Levert?

Because Tilman is broke AF and wants to shed $$. Dipo is an expiring, LeVert is not.

for the record, I believe BS is one of the weakest minds/hearts ever. How does an NBA player, with nothing but time to work on his craft and his profession, while playing a Guard Position, Not even improve in the least bit at an all important skill, for player in this ERA.

Like a Million dollar talent with a 10 cent head.

Christian Wood continues to ball out for the Rockets and I continue to die a little inside every day he does

It takes a while for a major injury to have this effect. But it is inevitable in the longrun. And the strain of being a professional athlete in a very demanding physical sport past physical prime age (most people 21-24) can speed up the process.

But I think an underrated factor is that people that big are just not designed well for this world. There is a **** ton of extra forces and torque happening on your body in athletics at 6'8" that simply are not happening at 5'10".

That’s fair. Plus he’s an age worth giving up a future first for. Too bad. The whole Hayward saga kind of **** things up and we weren’t ready to get it done. But still could be an option depending on what Direction Houston goes.

If there is even a chance.. Age + contract + need/fit.

Damn Brogdon is just so good for a point guard. Solid and steady. Myles Turner is probably the best shot blocker this season. Definitely alters shots inside. Unlike our good for nothing fake bigs Theis and TT. Lol

Imagine that Boston could have actually had both players. Instead of Kemba for 185 Mil, Brogdon for 100?

M Turner for GH.

That could be a title right there.

Nurkic is injured again. Broken right wrist. Kanter going to get so much playing time.

I feel for Nurk. I rate him and he's not getting a good run at it.
